Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage

Dr. José Carlos Magalhães Pires is a Senior Researcher at the University of Porto, Portugal. He holds a PhD in Environmental Engineering from the same institution and has over 18 years of experience in teaching and research within the fields of environmental sciences and process systems engineering. His research interests include process modeling and optimization, sustainable microalgal cultivation strategies, bioreactor design, and the applications of microalgae in water treatment, CO2 capture and bioenergy production. Ana Luisa da Cunha Gonçalves graduated in Bioengineering (Biological Engineering Branch) by Faculty of Engineering of University of Porto in 2012. In 2013, she started her PhD in Chemical and Biological Engineering at FEUP. The PhD, entitled Microalgal cultivation for biomass production, CO2 capture and nutrients uptake, aimed the optimization of culturing conditions of microalgae and cyanobacteria in laboratory and pilot scale to improve both CO2 capture and nutrients uptake from the culture medium. Before finishing the PhD, she worked for 9 months as Wet Biomass Production Manager in a microalgal production company. Currently, Dr. Gonçalves is a postdoctoral researcher in the TexBoost project at CITEVE and also an external researcher at LEPABE-FEUP. AL Gonçalves published 20 papers in international peer reviewed journals, 2 book chapters and her research work was discussed in 10 international meetings.
