PhD project: Biocatalytic membranes assembled from spherical lignin nanoparticles and lignin fibers
Supervisor: Assist. Prof. Mika Sipponen
Dissertation planned to: 2025
Research area:
My research focuses on fabrication of bio-catalytic membranes, as an alternative to present catalytic membranes which are formed from synthetic polymers. The building blocks of these membranes will be lignin-based fibers as well as nano particles.
Research theme: 1-wood components, 2-biorefinery, 3-material forming, 4-material concepts
