معرفی
Pierrette Guichardon is a Professor at Aix-Marseille University, affiliated with the M2P2 laboratory (Laboratory of Mechanics, Modeling and Clean Processes). She leads the Small-scale Processes and Mechanics research team, focusing on fundamental and applied chemical engineering research with emphasis on fluid mechanics and process engineering.
Her primary research domains include:
- Membrane Technology (reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, fouling mechanisms)
- Microfluidics and microencapsulation systems
- Micromixing characterization and reaction engineering
- Thermodynamics of vapor-liquid equilibria
- Supercritical water oxidation processes
- Environmental applications in water treatment
Her work consistently integrates sustainability principles, particularly in developing eco-friendly synthesis methods and green chemistry approaches for microcapsule production and water purification systems.
Analysis of her 15 most recent publications (2016-2025) reveals three dominant research trajectories: 1) Advanced membrane processes with focus on concentration polarization, osmotic counter-effects, and fouling mechanisms; 2) Microfluidic synthesis of polyurea microcapsules using low-toxicity reagents and eco-friendly esters; 3) Fundamental studies in multiphase flows, micromixing kinetics, and thermodynamic modeling of complex mixtures. Her interdisciplinary approach bridges chemical engineering fundamentals with practical environmental applications.
