Auguste Fernandes is graduated in Inorganic Chemistry – Materials Sciences and possesses a strong background in synthesis and characterization of porous (ordered and hierarchical) materials and their use as Heterogeneous Catalysts. His main scientific interests concern the use of new and “greener” synthesis approaches (including microwave-assisted synthesis) and characterization (structure, surface properties, catalytic behaviour) of these materials by the use of a wide range of techniques, like powder X-Ray Diffraction, advanced in-situ and Operando spectroscopic methods (Infrared and UV-Vis), thermal analyses and gases sorption method and applications in Energy and Environmental Catalysis.
