Liliana Rodrigues is a PhD student in Sustainable Chemistry at the Nutraceuticals and Bioactives Process Technology Lab of iBET (Food and Health Division), and holds a master degree in Chemical and Biochemical Engineering from Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia – Universidade NOVA de Lisboa (2014).

She has been developing her research as a fellow at iBET since 2014, being involved in several multidisciplinary national and international research projects, with both academic and industry partners. Since then, her research work has been mainly focused on green separation and fractionation processes, in particular by using high pressure processing design for the isolation of functional/bioactive ingredients from natural sources.

Currently she is developing her PhD, with the aim of designing integrated and sustainable strategies that combine alternative green solvents, such as supercritical carbon dioxide and deep eutectic solvents, for the efficient valorisation and exploitation of by-products and wastes resulting from fish and shellfish processing industries, within the biorefinery concept.

Her scientific work has resulted so far in two papers published in international peer-reviewed journals, six papers published in conference proceedings, five oral communications and nineteen posters in international scientific meetings.
