Luis Miguel Romeo (PhD Industrial Engineering, 1997). Full Professor at the School of Engineering and Architecture (EINA), University of Zaragoza (Department of Mechanical Engineering).

Research Group “Energy and CO2” (https://eco2lab.unizar.es/). We work to transform how energy is sustainably produced and stored. Our primary focus is on reducing CO2 emissions through innovative technologies such as oxy-combustion and advanced CO2 capture systems based on carbonation cycles and solid sorbents. Concurrently, we explore new methods for energy storage using thermochemical processes, including the utilization of concentrated solar energy through carbonation cycles, the conversion of renewable electricity into green gases (hydrogen and methane) via power-to-gas technologies, and pioneering methods that use iron redox reactions to store energy efficiently and cleanly. Our goal is to promote integrated solutions that facilitate the transition to a low-carbon economy (decarbonization).
