Research

My research activity have different aspects that include the recovery of waste and materials of little commercial value coming from agribusiness, biodiesel manufacturing process, the study of chemical synthesis processes eco-friendly or the use of biocatalysts for several processes.
In the actuality, I’m starting a new research line related with the Synthetic Biology. I propose to create viable industrially useful novel microbes
(cells, bacteria and yeast) with profound changes in their molecular and biosynthetic machineries.
