@albacabrera.bsky.social has been appointed as Lecturer at the Department of Chemical, Agricultural and Agro-Food Engineering of @univgirona.bsky.social

Congrats!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Alba Cabrera studied a degree in Environmental Sciences, and a Master’s in Water Science and Technology at the University of Girona. In 2016 she completed a doctoral thesis on the removal of siloxanes from biogas through adsorption processes, a topic on which she has published numerous articles and given presentations at international conferences. After her doctorate, the researcher was awarded with several prestigious post-doctoral grants (Juan de la Cierva, MSCA-Cofund TecnioSpring) and developed part of her activity abroad; specifically, in the United States and Italy.

Currently, Dr. Cabrera is researching the application of adsorption and oxidation processes to the treatment of both liquid and gaseous effluents. Thus, she works on projects within the energy (biogas) and water (potable water treatment and regeneration of purified water) fields. She works in multidisciplinary research teams that apply chemical engineering, analytical chemistry and mathematical modeling. The researcher also stands out for her transfer activity, developed within the framework of several contracts with companies and entities in the water sector.

Felicitem a l’Alba Ceballos-Escalera per l’obtenció del Premi Extraordinari de Doctorat 2024 del Programa de Doctorat en Ciència i Tecnologia de l’Aigua de la @univgirona.bsky.social !
La seva tesi “Electro bioremediation of nitrate contaminated groundwater: from laboratory to on site pilot plant” investiga i valida en un entorn real l’electro-bioremediació per eliminar nitrats d’aigües subterrànies contaminades. 🫧 🫧 

A més:
- Un dels articles de la tesi va ser premiat per la societat científica internacional ISMET
- La tesi també va ser premiada per la Càtedra ATL de l'aigua potable 

Felicitats també als seus directors: Sebastià Puig, Marilós Balaguer i Narcís Pous Rodriguez 🎉
