Industrial Chemical Process Analysis and Design

Dr. Martin is full Professor of Chemical engineering at the University of Salamanca and member of the Royal Academy of Sciences of Spain. Mariano Martin graduated with honors in the integrated BSc and MSc in Chemical engineering at USAL in 2003. Prof. Martin completed his PhD on the analysis of multiphase reactors and received the Outstanding Thesis award in 2008 also at USAL. He joined Procter & Gamble as a postdoctoral Engineer at their technical center of Newcastle Upon Tyne where he led the last challenge in the laundry business for which he obtained the P&G award for its outstanding contribution to modelling and simulation. He was Fulbright Postdoc at Carnegie Mellon University for almost two years on the systematic design of renewable based processes before accepting the challenge of building a process systems laboratory in the oldest university in Spain. Dr. Martin's research interests focus on the systematic optimal design of processes and products using renewable based resources towards a more sustainable power, chemical and process industry. Prof Martin has been visiting prof. at CMU (US), Univ. Texas A&M (US), Univ Leeds (UK), Univ Birmingham (UK), Plapiqui (Argentina), Udelar (Uruguay) or Univ Maribor (Slovenia) among others.
