Professor Magnone received his degree in Chemistry from the University of Genoa (IT) in 1995 and his PhD in Electrochemistry in 1999. In 2004, he moved to the University of Tokyo (JP), where he worked for about four years on nanomaterials for energy applications, developing a novel method for the synthesis of perovskite-type oxides. He received prestigious awards, including a fellowship from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) to conduct research on Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) at the Center for Collaborative Research (CCR) in Tokyo. He also spent a year as an invited researcher at the National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS) in Tsukuba (JP). Subsequently, he worked for three years at the Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER) in Daejeon (KR), before joining Dongguk University (Seoul) as an associate professor in 2013, a position he has held since. He has published over 100 papers in chemistry and materials science, focusing on advanced synthesis, membrane science, and the catalytic properties of nanomaterials. His current research interests include Pd-based membranes for H₂ separation, CO₂ capture using gas–liquid hollow fiber membrane contactors, and enhancing the cooling performance of hypersonic vehicles.
Dr. Park completed his bachelor’s (1988–1993), master’s (1994–1996), and PhD (1996–2000) studies in the Department of Chemical Engineering at Korea University, Seoul (Korea). From 2000 to 2013, he was a researcher at the Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER), Daejeon (Korea). Dr. Jung Hoon Park is currently an Assistant Professor in the College of Engineering at Dongguk University, Seoul (Korea), and the team leader of a laboratory specializing in carbon capture and storage (CCS). His research focuses on oxygen separation using ion transport membranes, hydrogen separation using metal and ceramic composite membranes, fine ceramic synthesis via hydrothermal reaction, and supercritical water extraction.
