Doctor of Science in Physics and Chemistry of Surface, Head of Laboratory at Chuiko Institute of Surface Chemistry NAS of Ukraine from Ukraine · Kyiv

Research Interests (i) main field: Pyrolysis; Catalysis; Physical Chemistry: Kinetics, Reactions/Mechanisms, Surface chemistry. (ii) other fields: Investigating processes of heterogeneous catalytic pyrolysis of renewable biomass components for a development of green technologies for production of bio-oils, bio-based chemicals and biofuel. (iii) current research interest: use of TPD-MS and Linear Free Energy Relationships for assessing the reactivity of organic molecules, biomolecules (fatty and cinnamic acids, coumarins) and biopolymers (Lignin, Cellulose, Chitin/Chitosan, Dextran, Hemicellulose, etc.) on surfaces of nanoscale catalysts.
