Luis Alberto Nuñez Recio

Luis Alberto Nuñez Recio serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biotechnology and Food Science at the Faculty of Sciences, University of Burgos. He is actively affiliated with the PhD program "Avances en Ciencia y Biotecnología Alimentarias" and the BIOIND Industrial and Environmental Biotechnology research group.

His academic foundation includes a PhD from the University of Burgos (1999), where his doctoral thesis focused on biological carbon and nitrogen removal in slaughterhouse wastewater using UASB, EGSB, and activated sludge bioreactors under the supervision of Dr. Bernardo Martínez Marcos and Dr. José Luis Cabezas Juan.

Dr. Nuñez Recio's research spans critical domains in sustainable biotechnology:

• Environmental Biotechnology: Developing microbial solutions for pollution control
• Wastewater Treatment: Optimizing UASB/EGSB systems for industrial effluents
• Industrial Biotechnology: Scaling bioprocesses for environmental applications
• Food Science: Integrating biotechnology with food safety and quality
• Bioreactor Engineering: Designing efficient biological treatment systems
• Chemical Engineering: Applying reaction kinetics to biodegradation processes

Through the BIOIND research group, he advances interdisciplinary projects targeting industrial wastewater remediation and sustainable food technologies. His role in the PhD program demonstrates active mentorship in training next-generation researchers in biotechnology and food science, though specific student names and grant details remain unreported in available materials.
