Expertise: Energy conversion system optimization
I graduated in Mechanical and Energy Engineering at the Univerisity of Brescia (Italy), where I presented a thesis on hydrogen production through SOEC and ORC cycles using biomass or MSW combustion. Currently, I am involved in EU and national projects and have moved my PhD research toward multi-generation power cycles.
Finding innovative pathways for sustainable energy production is essential. My PhD project focuses on investigating multi-generation systems, where thermal energy from renewable sources or industrial waste heat is used in power cycles with specific working fluids to produce not only electricity, heating, and/or cooling, but also fuels such as hydrogen or e-fuels. Here at the HERD Lab, I will focus my studies on high-temperature electrochemical converters and carbon utilization.
