Luis Miguel Romeo (PhD, 1997). Professor at the School of Engineering and Architecture (EINA) of the University of Zaragoza (Department of Mechanical Engineering). Head of the DGA Research Group "Energy and CO2" (http://energiayco2.unizar.es/).
My research has been focused on the analysis and the proposal of improvement strategies for thermal systems. Nowadays the research interests are carbon capture and utilization and energy storage technologies. Regarding carbon capture and utilization, I have been involved in several oxy-fuel projects (coordinator of the European project O2GEN - FP7, 2012-2016), integration of processes for capture through carbonation cycles (several National projects) and in post-combustion with solid sorbents (coordinator of the European project ASC2 - RFCS, 2013-2016). Currently, I participate in an EU project about CO2 capture in industrial processes (project H2020- AlSiCaL). In the energy storage research, my interest lies in technologies that could be easily integrated with the utilization of CO2. In particular: (i) the use of carbonation cycles in concentrated solar energy storage (participation in an EU project, H2020-SOCRATCES) with the proposal an analysis of the whole process and specific simulations of the main equipment; (ii) power-to-gas and power-to-X technologies with green hydrogen utilization, proposing alternatives for the combination with oxyfuel processes for CO2 recycling and testing on methanation (power-to-methane) in experimental facilities at UNIZAR (participation in several National and International projects). I am lately involved in processes related with steel (DISIPO and Khalifa University international porjects and two national porjects) and aluminium (AlSiCaL, European project) industries. As a research group, we strongly believe that these industries have a huge potential for reducing their enviromental profile through carbon capture and energy storage.

Summarizing, I have participated in 35 research projects (responsible for 23, 9 European projects of which two I was the project coordinator). Participation in 28 research contracts with private companies (responsible for 19). As a result, I have published more than 110 works, 102 of which in JCR journals and 75 in Q1 journals. Total citations are about 4600 (WoS) and 5100 (Scopus) with a h-index of 37 (WoS) or 41 (Scopus). Average citations per year (in the last 5 years) are 400 (WoS), 480 (Scopus). I have supervised 12 PhD (4 of the in the last 10 years) and there are two under supervision.

Currently I am Coordinator of the Degree in Industrial Technology Engineering at the Zaragoza School of Engineering and Architecture (EINA). I have been also involved in several management activities at UNIZAR (summer course, research institute management,  university research committee). I am Assistant Editor (Editorial Board) of the International Journal of Energy and Environmental Engineering (Springer) and I have been Guest Associate Editor of Special Issue "Advances in Power-to-X: Processes, Systems, and Deployment" in Process and Energy Systems Engineering for Frontiers in Energy Research.
