Date: Friday 22 September 2023

Time: 13.00 – 16.00

Location: TBA

Natalia Fijol will defend her thesis: "3D printing of Biobased Water Purification Filters: Design for Sustainable and Scalable materials"

Supervisor: Prof. Aji P. Mathew

Opponent: Alexander Bismarck, Institute of Materials Chemistry and Research, University of Vienna, Austria

Research subjects

Processing of recycled and bio-based materials Materials for Environment Green material synthesis

Research project

3D-printing of biobased filters functionalized with nanocellulose for water purification

The projects aims to develop 2D and 3D high flux monolithic water purification filters with gradient porosity, tortuous pathways and selective adsorption for water pollutants.

Research groups

Aji Mathew group

The focus of the group is biobased materials for different applications.

Lennart Bergström group

The groups research activities span the academic disciplines of materials science and applied surface and colloid science with a focus on sustainable materials.
