In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Umberto Desideri focuses on Renewable energy, Process engineering, Waste management, Environmental economics and Biogas. His study in Renewable energy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Production, Electricity, Energy storage, Electricity generation and Power to gas. The concepts of his Process engineering study are interwoven with issues in Distributed generation, Waste heat and Thermal energy.

His Waste management study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Energy recovery, Cogeneration, Process integration and Efficient energy use. His Environmental economics research integrates issues from Fossil fuel and Scale. His research integrates issues of Internal combustion engine, Natural gas, Turbine, Liquefaction and Anaerobic digestion in his study of Biogas.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Opportunities of power-to-gas technology in different energy systems architectures (71 citations)
  • Small scale bio-LNG plant: Comparison of different biogas upgrading techniques (30 citations)
  • Thermodynamic and economic analysis of the integration of Organic Rankine Cycle and Multi-Effect Distillation in waste-heat recovery applications (28 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Thermodynamics
