José María Asua González (Zarátamo, April 6, 1953) is a Spanish chemist, professor of chemical engineering at the University of the Basque Country and director of Polymat, the Polymeric Materials Research Institute.[1]
Asua obtained his Bachelor's degree in Chemistry from the University of Bilbao in 1975, and completed his PhD in Chemistry at the University of Zaragoza, researching the deactivation of solid catalysts.[2]
Research and professional career
[edit]In 1978, he joined the Faculty of Chemical Sciences at the University of the Basque Country to research the subject of polymerization reactors.[2] He completed a post-doctoral stay at the University of Liège (Belgium) investigating the hydrodynamics of trickle bed reactors (TBR),[3] and has spent sabbatical years at Lehigh University (USA) as a Fulbright scholar and at the University of Waterloo (Canada) as a visiting professor.
He is also a visiting professor at the Catholic Universities of Leuven (Belgium) and Dortmund (Germany).[4] Professor Asua is internationally recognized in the field of fundamental research in industrially important polymerization processes, developing knowledge-based strategies for the production of water-dispersed polymers.[2] He has also been a driving force behind university-industry relations, directing many industrial projects; and has been part of the scientific committee of many international conferences and director of a NATO Advanced Study Institute.[5]
Awards and honors
[edit]- Award for Research Excellence from the Royal Spanish Society of Chemistry, 2017.[6]
