Alberto Coz
I am full professor in the department of chemistry and process and resource engineering at the University of Cantabria. I teach chemistry at the School of Nautical Studies and industrial chemistry at the School of Industrial Engineers. In addition, I also teach science and criminal investigation classes, chemistry in our environment and ecology and environment in the Senior program of the University of Cantabria and two scientific communication subjects in the Doctoral School.
On the other hand, I am a researcher in the GER research group on green engineering and resources. I would highlight within my research the issues of waste recovery, especially biomass waste, and biorefinery processes. Waste recovery tries to find uses for the waste we generate. On the other hand, biorefinery processes are those in which biomass is transformed into useful products, similar to those obtained through petroleum.
Currently, in addition to teaching and research, I like to dedicate part of my time to science outreaching. I am part of the BigVan Ciencia group at national level.
If you speak Spanish, here you can see an example of a scientific monologue I presented during the European night of the researchers:
Personally, I am shy and above all introverted, so I prefer writing over oral communication. I hate vinegar and the people who stand on the doors of public transport from the moment they enter them. I like the theater and spend my holidays in Chania.
