S&T Expertise*

Especialista en Biorremediación y tratamiento de residuos y efluentes especiales.Actualmente dirige un equipo de investigadores que estudia procesos redox biocatalizados en entornos contaminados y su aplicación a biorremediación. En conjunto con investigadores de UNSAM y otras instituciones dirige o participa en numerosos proyectos acreditados por CONICET y ANPCyT.Algunos de los desarrollos tales como la recuperación de metales a partir de pilas y baterías agotadas y el tratamiento de algunos efluentes especiales ya han sido probados con éxito a nivel planta piloto. *Information provided by the agent in SIGEVA
