Bio
Ana Soto has a degree in Chemical Sciences (1990) and a PhD in Industrial Chemistry (1995) from the University of Santiago de Compostela. Currently, and since 2010, she is a University Professor in the USC Department of Chemical Engineering. It has recognized 4 six-year terms of research and 4 teaching five-year periods.
Ana Soto is the coordinator of the Group of Sustainable Separation Processes of the USC. His research focuses on Thermodynamics applied to separation processes and the use of ionic liquids for the optimization of industrial processes. His current interests include thermo-physical characterization, the design and improvement of separation processes, improved oil recovery, CO2 capture, fractionation of lignocellulosic biomass, recovery of value-added components from waste streams, and nanotechnology.
He has participated in around 20 subsidized projects (regional, national and international) and contracts with companies, having been IP of them since 2010. As a result of this research he has around 150 publications (WoS) and an impact index of h = 35 (WoS). He has two international patents, has presented more than a hundred communications to congresses, published 5 book chapters, and directed 11 Doctoral Theses. He has participated in the organization of five international conferences and is a member of different scientific committees.
International recognition for her scientific work is reflected in her being a member of the Working Party of Thermodynamics and Transport Properties of the European Federation of Chemical Engineers, and since September 2014 she is editor of Fluid Phase Equilibria magazine.
