ACTUAL POSITION
2012- up to now
Researcher. Nanoscience Institute of Aragon (University of Zaragoza), since January
2012 in the frame of the NANOVALID European project (FP7).
RESEARCH TOPICS

Development of highly-effective and stable catalytic layers for the activation of the nano-structured
ceramic oxygen transport membranes (OTM’s) with infinite selectivity for oxygen separation from air.
The produced oxygen is provided to Oxyfuel power plants or chemical processes, which will
contribute in a way to the mitigation of CO2 emissions.
