Brief description ot the activity

Ismael Díaz is an Associate Professor of Chemical Engineering (since 2016) at the ETS Ingenieros Industriales belonging to the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid. His main research topics are the application of Process System Engineering to provide more sustainable solutions for the chemical industry and the use of advanced applied thermodynamics models in separation processes research. On the other hand, he is also very interested on the use of machine learning models in chemical engineering, the implications of new clean energy technologies, and the role of new more sustainable solvents in the process industry. Prof. Diaz was awarded his bachelor in Chemical Engineering in 2006 and finished a Master in Industrial Process Engineering in 2007. He also finished his PhD (cum laude) at Universidad Complutense de Madrid in 2010 working on mixture thermodynamics models and process design and simulation of industrial polymer-solvent separation processes. His PhD was funded by the Spanish Government through a FPU competitive grant. In  2009 and 2010 he worked as invited researcher at Univeristy of Nottingham (supervisor Prof Paul Langston) and Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (supervised by Prof Costas Panayiotou). In 2011 he moved to Universidad Politécnica de Madrid taking up a position of Assistant Professor of Chemical Engineering. Since then he has supervised more than 50 bachelor and master degree thesis, and more than 1700 hours of both practical and theoretical lessons. In 2019 he was invited as academic visitor at Imperial College of London under collaborating with Prof. Gonzalo Guillén-Gosálbez.  His teaching activity is mainly carried out in the Master on Chemical Engineering (he is also the academic head of the Master degree) in the subjects Process Optimisation, Process Integration, Particulate Solids Processing and Process and Product Engineering (Bachelor in Chemical Engineering). Since 2013 he has been part of the research group AsLab - Autonomous Systems Laboratory, working in collaboration with a wide range of engineering experts. He is also a passionate of innovative teaching methods applied to the Chemical Engineering curricula, being also part of the EIChE - Educational Innovation on Chemical Engineering group. The main goal of the group is to develop methods to promote an active and integral learning of the ChE students. Since then, he has been the main researcher of three educative innovation projects funded by UPM and collaborated in other 14 projects as team member.
