João Paulo Lourenço has a degree and a PhD in Chemical Engineering from IST/UTL. He is Assistant Professor at the University of Algarve and Researcher at the Centro de Química Estrutural (CQE).
His current research interests include the application of zeolitic materials to reactions that require acid and/or bifunctional catalysis and as supports for metallic catalysts and transition metal complexes, the preparation of nanocomposites with mesoporous materials as inorganic fillers by in-situ polymerization of olefins and also the production of chemicals with added-value from biomass using heterogeneous catalysis.
