Research Fellow

Duarte Rente graduated from Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia, Universidade Nova de Lisboa, in 2017 with a master’s degree in chemical and biochemical engineering. During his studies he became interested in the field of Green Chemistry, which lead him to develop his master’s thesis on the field. The master’s thesis was entitled “Power to Gas – Reducing global warming by producing methane through carbon dioxide hydrogenation”, where he worked with high pressure reactors, supercritical CO2 and ionic liquids, in order to optimize methane production. Currently, he is working with NADES as an extraction and stabilizing media of bioactive compounds for cosmetic applications.
