Gilberto Martins is a Researcher at the Centre of Biological Engineering (University of Minho), specializing in microbial biotechnology and environmental engineering. His work focuses on microbial electrochemistry, anaerobic digestion, and bioremediation, with an emphasis on the application of conductive materials and nanotechnology to enhance bioprocesses.
Research interests include the optimization of microbial fuel cells for energy recovery, the role of iron and carbon-based materials in methane production, and the biogeochemical cycling of nutrients in aquatic systems. Key contributions involve advancing understanding of how conductive substrates influence methanogen activity and developing computational models for wastewater treatment and bioremediation.
Recent studies explore microbial degradation of microplastics and the use of machine learning to predict biogas yields. His interdisciplinary approach bridges microbiology, environmental engineering, and material science to address challenges in sustainable energy and pollution control.
