Tiago Pinheiro Braga

Tiago Pinheiro Braga obtained a degree in Industrial Chemistry (UFC, 2006, Brazil), masters degree in Inorganic Chemistry (UFC, 2009, Brazil) and PhD degree in Chemistry, Physicochemical, (UFC, 2013, Brazil). He developed the doctoral internship program at IRCE (Institut de Recherche sur l’environnment), Lyon, France (2010-2011). He worked as a postdoctoral fellow in X-Ray Laboratory, Department of Physics, at Federal University of Ceará. He was then hired as an adjunct professor in the Institute of Chemistry at Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), in 2014, which is professor of chemical thermodynamics and chemical kinetics for undergraduate student and professor of heterogeneous catalysis for master and PhD students. He is a member of the postgraduate program in chemistry at UFRN, where he advises master dissertations and doctoral theses. His main research fields are related to chemistry and catalysis such as acid, base and/or redox heterogeneous catalysis; Micro-mesoporous metal oxide and alloys; Catalytic valorization of glycerol and ethanol; Oxidative dehydrogenation of hydrocarbons; Synthesis of carbon nanotubes via CVD and Photocatalysis.
