Member of the European Academy of Sciences and Arts
Bert F. Sels mainly focuses on Catalysis, Organic chemistry, Heterogeneous catalysis, Inorganic chemistry and Cellulose. His Catalysis study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Nanotechnology. Bert F. Sels works mostly in the field of Organic chemistry, limiting it down to concerns involving Pulp and, occasionally, Lignocellulosic biomass, Hemicellulose and Depolymerization.
The various areas that he examines in his Heterogeneous catalysis study include Methylrhenium trioxide, Covalent bond, Urea hydrogen peroxide, Chemical engineering and Stereoselectivity. His study in Inorganic chemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Crystallography, 1,3-Butadiene, Dopant and Active site. His research in Cellulose intersects with topics in Hydrolysis, gamma-Valerolactone, Alkane and Aqueous two-phase system.
His primary areas of study are Catalysis, Organic chemistry, Chemical engineering, Zeolite and Heterogeneous catalysis. His Catalysis study combines topics in areas such as Inorganic chemistry, Photochemistry and Nanotechnology. He mostly deals with Layered double hydroxides in his studies of Inorganic chemistry.
His study in Cellulose, Lignin, Hydrolysis, Polymer and Carbon falls within the category of Organic chemistry. In Lignin, Bert F. Sels works on issues like Biorefinery, which are connected to Biochemical engineering. His Chemical engineering study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Adsorption.
His primary scientific interests are in Catalysis, Organic chemistry, Lignin, Biorefinery and Biochemical engineering. His Catalysis study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Porosity and Chemical engineering. His studies deal with areas such as Carbon and Mesoporous material as well as Chemical engineering.
His Lignin research focuses on Biorefining and how it relates to Cellulose. He interconnects Fractionation and Chemical industry in the investigation of issues within Biorefinery. His Biochemical engineering research incorporates themes from Valorisation, Process and Chemical process.
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Catalysis, Lignin, Biorefinery, Biochemical engineering and Organic chemistry. His Catalysis research focuses on Mesoporous material in particular. His work on Lignocellulosic biomass as part of his general Lignin study is frequently connected to Curcumin synthase, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.
His research in Biorefinery intersects with topics in Fractionation, Pulp and paper industry and Chemical industry. He works mostly in the field of Biochemical engineering, limiting it down to topics relating to Valorisation and, in certain cases, Process, as a part of the same area of interest. In his study, Microporous material is inextricably linked to Heterogeneous catalysis, which falls within the broad field of Porosity.
