Dimitrios I Gerogiorgis

Professor Dimitrios I Gerogiorgis holds the Personal Chair of Process Systems Engineering at the University of Edinburgh's School of Engineering (Institute for Materials & Processes). His research focuses on pharmaceutical manufacturing optimization, biochemical processes, oil & gas systems, and high-temperature materials processing. He has contributed to over 50 peer-reviewed publications, including seminal works on continuous pharmaceutical manufacturing (CPM), smart drilling fluids, and beer fermentation dynamics.

Education: PhD/MSc in Chemical Engineering (Carnegie Mellon University) and Diplomas in Chemical Engineering (Aristotle University) and Translation (Institute of Linguists). Professional memberships include AIChE, IChemE, TMS, and ASEE.

Research emphasizes multi-objective optimization, techno-economic analysis, and CFD modeling. Key projects include: (1) CPM cost-benefit analyses for ibuprofen/artemisinin, (2) nanoparticle-enhanced drilling fluid rheology, and (3) beer fermentation temperature manipulation simulations. His work bridges fundamental process modeling with industrial-scale implementation.
