معرفی
Dr. Asma Tougerti is an Associate Professor and researcher at the University of Lille, France, specializing in heterogeneous catalysis. She is affiliated with the Solid State Catalysis and Chemistry Unit (UCCS - UMR CNRS 8181), specifically within the MODSPEC (Modeling and Spectroscopy) research group under the Heterogeneous Catalysis department. Her office is located in building C3, room 106 at the University's Scientific City campus in Villeneuve d'Ascq.
Dr. Tougerti's research focuses on advanced characterization of catalytic materials using spectroscopic techniques, particularly X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS/XANES), combined with computational modeling (DFT). Her work spans multiple areas including hydrodesulfurization catalysts, methanol conversion processes, three-way automotive catalysts, and the structural analysis of transition metal oxide catalysts. She has developed expertise in correlating electronic and geometric structures of catalysts with their performance characteristics.
Her publication record demonstrates consistent research activity since 2011, with a particular emphasis on in situ and operando characterization techniques that allow observation of catalysts under working conditions. Her work often involves collaborations with researchers across multiple French institutions and occasionally international partners, reflecting the interdisciplinary nature of modern catalysis research.
Dr. Tougerti has contributed significantly to understanding the structure-property relationships in various catalytic systems, particularly those involving molybdenum, rhenium, and iron-based materials. Her research has practical applications in environmental protection (emission control), energy production, and chemical manufacturing processes.
