Silvia CONCA

Silvia CONCA is a Lecturer in the Department of Molecular Sciences and Nanosystems at Ca' Foscari University of Venice. Her academic work focuses on green chemistry, organic synthesis, and sustainable materials development, with particular emphasis on environmentally friendly industrial applications.

Her research interests span multiple areas of sustainable chemistry, with primary focus on Green Chemistry, Organic Synthesis, and Materials Science. She has developed expertise in creating sustainable alternatives for industrial processes, particularly in tanning agents, plastic recycling, and innovative materials for construction applications. Her work demonstrates a strong commitment to circular economy principles and environmentally responsible chemical processes.

Analysis of her recent publications reveals a consistent research trajectory focused on sustainable materials development, particularly in the areas of polymer chemistry, waste valorization, and green synthesis methods. Her work bridges fundamental chemistry with practical industrial applications, with emphasis on leather processing, plastic recycling technologies, and sustainable construction materials.

She has been actively involved in multiple research projects including:

• Ecodesign and recycling of personal protective equipment in a circular industrial supply chain (2020)
• SARR Project: Advanced Systems for Waste Recovery (2017)
• Smart creAtivity for saFety and rEstart (2020)
• Development of waterless fabric sanforization systems (2017)

Her collaborative research approach is evident through her frequent work with colleagues including Valentina BEGHETTO, Vanessa GATTO, and Roberto SOLE across multiple projects and publications. She maintains strong connections between academic research and industrial applications through partnerships with companies and regional initiatives.
