معرفی
Marco Baratieri is a Professor at the Faculty of Engineering of the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano (unibz), where he contributes to courses on Thermal Power Production and Distribution (Master in Energy Engineering) and Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer (Bachelor in Industrial and Mechanical Engineering). His research focuses on bioenergy systems, including biomass gasification, hydrogen production, and renewable heating technologies, with particular attention to applications in mountainous regions.
Recent publications highlight his work on tar reforming using gasification char, syngas biomethanation, and hydrothermal carbonization of agricultural and food wastes. He explores thermo-economic modeling, catalyst performance, and system integration for decarbonization in Alpine contexts.
His 15 most recent articles span topics from small-scale gasification economics to plastic waste solvolysis. Key trends include biomass-to-hydrogen pathways, char valorization, and hybrid heating systems for buildings. Research often intersects with climate adaptation and circular economy principles.
Baratieri leads the Bioenergy & Biofuels Lab, which investigates innovations like wood-based carbon removal and micro-CHP emissions reduction. While no specific awards or student advising details appear in the provided text, his work is tied to European Alps decarbonization strategies and industry collaborations like Cineca Innovation.
