Sustainable Design for Renewable Processes

Dr. Martín is an emerging leader in the field of Process Systems Engineering. Over the last ten years, Dr. Martín has provided workshops in universities and Technical centers of the largest companies and established a new line of research in one of the oldest Universities in the world, the University of Salamanca (Spain), which just celebrated its 800 years (1218-2018). His research accomplishments have been widely disseminated through over 100 peer-reviewed journal articles with an h-index of 29 and over 2300 citations (Scopus) and 2 edited textbooks (plus a 2nd Edition) and 2 monographs in the best editorials. His research results have been editorially highlighted in major media outlets all over the world and recognized with industrial and academic awards such as the “P&G award for his outstanding contributions to modelling and simulation” in 2009 or the “Rising star in Chemical Engineering” by Imperial College in 2016. He has been also nominated to the AIChE CAST Your investigator Award 2019 and 5 times to the ENI renewable award.
