Federico Galli received his Ph.D. in industrial chemistry. He has worked on the development of sustainable bioplasticizers from vegetable oil and the optimization of biodiesel production. Since 2017, he has worked at Polytechnique Montréal on new catalysts for the partial oxidation of methane in syngas, and the successive Fischer-Tropsch reaction for the synthesis of fuels. Since November 2021, he has been a Professor at the University of Sherbrooke. He is Chair of the Energy Division of the Canadian Institute of Chemistry and an Associate Editor for the journals Processes (MDPI) and IET Renewable Power Generation (IET). His research focuses on the optimization of small, medium, and large-scale processes for the production of turquoise hydrogen by the pyrolysis of methane, natural gas, and residual materials.
Ilenia Rossetti graduated summa cum laude in Industrial Chemistry at Università degli Studi di Milano in 1998, and she earned a Ph.D. in Industrial Chemistry awarded by the same university in 2001. She is currently a Full Professor of Chemical Plants at Università degli Studi di Milano. Her research interests are mainly focused on the exploitation of renewable sources and developing chemical plants from grassroots for the valorization of new resources. These photocatalytic processes are also under development for application in the energy and environmental fields.
