Dr. Fernando Israel Gómez-Castro got his Master and Ph.D. degrees in Universidad de Guanajuato (2007) and Instituto Tecnológico de Celaya (2010), respectively. He stayed as scholar researcher at Texas A&M University. Currently, he is professor-researcher at Universidad de Guanajuato and he is member of the National Research System of Mexico. His research interest is in the area of control studies and optimization of biofuel production processes, including renewable aviation fuel. He has published 35 papers, 15 book chapters and 2 books. Dr. Claudia Gutiérrez-Antonio is Professor at Engineering Faculty, Autonomous University of Querétaro, also she is National Researcher Level 2 of the National System of Researchers. Prof. Gutiérrez obtained her PhD in Chemical Engineering from the Instituto Tecnológico de Celaya. She is an author of more than 60 scientific articles, 31 book chapters, 51 dissemination articles, and three books. Prof. Gutiérrez is founder professor and Coordinator of the Master of Science in Sustainable Technologies. She is also founder and coordinator of the Research Group Sustainable Bioproducts Production Processes, which is member of Ibero-American Network of Biomass and Bioenergy Technologies. She was distinguished along with 10 researchers worldwide by Elsevier through the Chemical Engineering and Processing: Process Intensification Journal for her career in the intensification of sustainable aviation fuel production processes, as well as by Chemical Engineering Nature by inviting her to write an opinion piece along with 39 leading researchers worldwide as part of the first anniversary issue.
