Liane Rossi

BS degree in Chemical Engineering from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (1994). PhD in Chemistry from the Federal University of Santa Catarina (2001). Postdoctoral researcher at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (Brazil) and at the University of New Orleans (USA). In 2004, she joined the Institute of Chemistry at the University of São Paulo (IQUSP) and become Associate Professor (2010) and Full Professor in 2016. Her research interests in the field of chemistry and catalysis include novel approaches for the synthesis of supported metal nanoparticles with controlled size, morphology and surface properties, catalyst recovery and recycling, new reactivity patterns at metal-ligands interfaces, bimetallic and hybrid catalysts, and the concepts of green chemistry for selective transformations. The main catalytic processes under study are selective hydrogenations and oxidations, biomass conversion into chemicals, including CO₂ capture and conversion.
