Eva Sørensen is currently Professor in Chemical Engineering and Head of Department. Prior to joining UCL, she spent one year at the Centre for Process Systems Engineering at Imperial College London as a postdoctoral researcher. Eva Sørensen is a member of the European Federation of Chemical Engineering (EFCE) Working Party on Fluid Separations (Chair 2007-2013) and she was previously a member of the EFCE's Executive Board (2011-2017). Her research focuses on fluid separations in chemical engineering, emphasizing the use of advanced modelling and optimization techniques to achieve optimal design and operation, particularly in fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals. Her work aims to enhance productivity and reduce environmental impact by exploring all design possibilities, with experimental verification conducted at UCL or through collaborations with industry and other researchers.Mirko Skiborowski holds a Dipl-Ing. in Computational Engineering Science (2009) and a Dr.-Ing. (PhD) in Process Systems Engineering (2015), both received from RWTH Aachen University. He received the EFCE Excellence Award on Computer-Aided Process Engineering (CAPE) in 2018 and was leading a research group on Process Synthesis and Intensification at the Laboratory of Fluid Separations of Andrzej Górak at TU Dortmund University until 2019. Since 2020 he is heading the Institute of Process Systems Engineering at Hamburg University of Technology. His research focuses on the interface of Process Systems Engineering and Process Intensification, with specific emphasis on distillation, hybrid and reactive separation processes, as well as innovative contacting equipment for the development of energy-efficient, economic, and sustainable processes.
