Samuel Roth

Samuel Roth is a Lecturer and scientific collaborator at the Fribourg School of Engineering and Architecture (HES-SO). His primary affiliations include the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Western Switzerland (HES-SO), focusing on analytical chemistry, environmental engineering, and renewable energy systems. He contributes to the Institut ChemTech research group and collaborates with academic and industrial partners.

Research interests center on pollution reduction from wood-burning appliances, analytical instrumentation, and material characterization. Key projects include the XyloClean series (developing advanced filtration systems for wood stoves/boilers) and analytical platform evaluations across Swiss universities of applied sciences. His work integrates chemical analysis techniques like Raman spectroscopy with environmental engineering challenges.

Roth has authored/co-authored multiple peer-reviewed publications on topics ranging from emission control technologies to archaeological materials analysis. He participates in interdisciplinary teams addressing renewable energy, biomass utilization, and sustainable technologies. Current and completed projects involve partnerships with companies like Chemitube SA and Oekosolve AG, totaling over CHF 500,000 in research funding.

Collaboration networks include researchers such as Thierry Stäger, Jean-Pascal Bourgeois, and Roger Röthlisberger. His lab activities focus on combustion byproduct analysis, filtration system prototyping, and novel material applications in environmental contexts.
