Last Saturday, our colleagues Eva Epelde and Onintze Parra participated as evaluators in the science fair organized by Elhuyar. They had the opportunity to evaluate projects of 3rd and 4th ESO students and learn a lot from their proposals!

Zuria Tabernilla, Asier Barredo, Josu López, Julen Garmendia, Ainara Ateka and Eva Epelde have published a review article in EKAIA divulgative journal on ethylene oligomerization to liquid hydrocarbons. https://ojs.ehu.eus/index.php/ekaia/article/view/23766 The work has been focused on different sources for ethylene production, current and future ethylene...

During May 21-24, our colleagues Onintze Parra and David Trueba participated in the ICheaP16 congress, which covers various topics of Chemical Engineering, to explain our most recent research on CO2 valorization for methanol production and regeneration of hydrocracking catalysts. #research #ChemicalEngineering #CO2 #plastics #valorization

Onintze Parra, Ander Portillo, Javier Ereña and Ainara Ateka have published an article in EKAIA on CO2 valorization for aromatics production. The article is a review of CO2 hydrogenation processes to produce aromatic compounds, especially BTX aromatics, helping in the mitigation of climate change and in the production of high value-added products from CO2. ...

Suní Rodríguez, Iratxe crespo and Sergio Iglesias will attend the MECCE 2023 Conference in Barcelona. They will deliver four presentations about the effect of the impregnation method for catalysts used in the hydrocracking of a VGO/PW blend, the matrix addition to a Pd/Y catalyst in the hydrocracking of preteated LCO, the reproducibility of the cycles in the sorption enhanced steam reforming of...

Last February José Valecillos Díaz delivered an oral virtual presentation on the deactivation phenomenon of Ni supported catalysts at the 7th International Conference on Catalysis and Chemical Engineering

José Valecillos Díaz attended ICheaP 16, which comprised diverse topics of Chemical Engineering, including our contributions on the production of hydrogen in a membrane reactor or syngas via bio-oil reforming

Yesterday, Dr. Héctor Vicente García defended his PhD dissertation entitled "Methanol-to-hydrocarbons (MTH) processes over H-ZSM-5 zeolites: New kinetic modeling methodology using forced periodic operatin and improvements in catalyst formulation". His research work has been developed in the Department of Chemical Engineering within Catalytic Processes and Waste Valoritzation (CPWV)...

Last March Suní Rodríguez Plaza attended the International Congress of Catalysis and Chemical Engineering in Rome (Italy), where she had the opportunity to share her study about the synergy between VGO and HDPE pyrolysis waxes in the hydrocracking over NiW-Y zeolites catalysts. #research #ChemicalEngineering #Catalysts #Hydrocracking

Last March Arancha Saiz Valderrama attended the International Congress of Catalysis and Chemical Engineering in Rome (Italy), where she had the opportunity to present the poster - LTA membrane reactors for DME synthesis from CO2 and CO2/COx mixtures: membrane crystallization
