Willing to supervise doctoral students
The Smart Process Engineering Lab led by Dr Bernardo Castro-Dominguez combines expertise in Engineering, Chemistry, Robotics and Computer Science to develop the next generation of materials, chemicals and processes.
Our research uses advanced experimental methodologies with modelling to develop new materials, chemicals and products with enhanced physicochemical performance, and better economic and sustainable features. Currently, we are working in the fields of pharma, sustainable packaging, sensing, plastic/e-waste recycling and additive manufacturing.
If you are interested in working with us, please check our website: https://bcastro-lab.com/ We are willing to supervise doctoral students interested in the areas of:
- Digital process engineering
- Machine learning for materials discovery
- Continuous manufacturing
- Process intensification
- Sustainable chemical technologies
Expertise related to UN Sustainable Development Goals
In 2015, UN member states agreed to 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all. This person’s work contributes towards the following SDG(s):
