Enrique RODRIGUEZ CASTELLON

Enrique Rodríguez-Castellón serves as a Visiting Professor at Ca' Foscari University of Venice, affiliated with the Department of Molecular Sciences and Nanosystems. His research focuses on advanced catalytic materials for environmental and energy applications.

His primary research interests center on heterogeneous catalysis and nanomaterials development, with specific expertise in:

• Photocatalytic systems for environmental remediation
• CO₂ conversion technologies
• Hydrogen purification processes
• Nanostructured catalysts for biomass upgrading
• Sustainable wastewater treatment solutions

Analysis of his recent publications (2017-2021) reveals a strong emphasis on environmental catalysis, particularly in developing photocatalytic systems for CO oxidation and wastewater treatment. His work frequently involves gold-based nanocatalysts supported on titanium dioxide and mesoporous silica materials, with increasing focus on CO₂ conversion since 2020. The research demonstrates consistent international collaboration patterns with Spanish and Italian institutions.

Teaching activities include instruction in Experimental Methods for Environmental Catalysis for the Master's program in Chemistry and Sustainable Technologies.
