Martín-Lara M A is a Professor since 2008 in the Chemical Engineering Department as Faculty of Sciences at the University of Granada, Spain. She is one of the researchers in the field of Waste Management and has contributed to valuable investigation in the area of heavy metal biosorption (mathematical Modeling, application to real industrial wastewaters, scale-up and biosorption kinetics) and valorization of agro industrial wastes by thermal processes including torrefaction, pyrolysis, gasification and combustion. She approached the use of process simulation techniques for the modelling of unit operations and the technical-economic analysis of processes for energy conversion of biomasses. Finally, she has coordinated several research projects and has published more than 60 scientific papers in these topics.
