Prof. Lucia Baldino

University of Salerno, Italy

Lucia Baldino is Assistant Professor (RTD-B) of Chemical Plants at the Department of Industrial Engineering of the University of Salerno, Italy. She graduated with honors in Food Engineering in 2011 at the University of Salerno and, then, received her PhD in Chemical Engineering in 2015. Hes research activity is mainly focused on the use of innovative and sustainable processes, assisted by supercritical carbon dioxide, for the production of lipid-based nanocapsules and for the extraction of compounds of industrial interest from different solid matrices. She is also involved in the production of porous 3-D biopolymeric structures. To date, the experimental results have led to the drafting of over 100 works published in international scientific journals, 5 chapters of international books, and 5 patent applications: WO2023094284; WO2019167013; IT201800003239; WO2015079419; VI2013A000285 (grant number 0001422904). She was a visiting researcher at the University of Salamanca (Spain) in 2021 and at the Institute of Nanoscience and Materials of Aragon (University of Zaragoza, Spain) in 2024. She is Associate Editor of Frontiers in Materials, Colloidal Materials and Interfaces section (Frontiers); Topical Advisory Panel Member of ChemEngineering, Materials, and Nanomaterials (MDPI); Academic Editor of Advances in Polymer Technology (Hindawi); member of the Editorial Board of Materials, Soft Matter section (MDPI). She is also a member of: EFCE (European Federation of Chemical Engineering), Chemical Engineering as Applied to Medicine section; GRICU (Chemical Engineering Group of the University); COST ACTION CA18125 AERoGELS (Advanced Engineering and Research of aeroGels for Environment and Life Sciences); BIONAM (Interdepartmental Center on Biomaterials); C.U.G.RI. (Inter-University Consortium for the Prevention of Major Risks) University of Salerno - University of Naples “Federico II”; AIDIC (Italian Association of Chemical Engineering); AIChE Women in Chemical Engineering. Over the years, she received awards and recognitions for her research activity, including: ▪ Top-cited scientists 2021; ▪ Polymers Outstanding Reviewer Award 2021 (MDPI); ▪ The article “Elimination of tryptamines from green coffee by supercritical CO2 extraction”, The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, 2021, 99, 1345-1351, has been selected for the inclusion in a Special Virtual Issue of The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering in honor of the International Women in Engineering Day; ▪ National award for the best PhD thesis in Chemical Engineering, awarded by AIDIC in 2015.
