Lesson: Síntese - Zeólitas
About: Manuel Moliner completed his Ph.D. at the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV), in Chemistry, under the guidance of Prof. Avelino Corma and Dr. Maria J. Díaz in 2008, working on the synthesis of new zeolitic structures for their application as catalysts in industrially-relevant chemical processes by using high-throughput methodologies. Afterward, he completed a two-year postdoc (2008-2010) with Prof. Mark Davis at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), where he worked on the design and synthesis of functional materials with application in different catalytic processes, mainly in biomass transformations.
He joined the ITQ as a “Ramón y Cajal” researcher in 2011, obtaining a Tenured Scientist position in 2014, and being recently promoted to Scientist Researcher in 2021. His research lies at the interface of heterogeneous catalysis and materials design.
Manuel has published 103 articles in international peer-review journals and has presented 33 patent applications as co-inventor (11 transferred to industry and 11 jointly presented with industry). Manuel has received the “Young Research Award” from the International Zeolite Association (IZA) in 2019 for his contributions to the Science and Technology of zeolites.
