Dr Vassilis Inglezakis
Reader
Chemical and Process Engineering
Qualifications
I received a Diploma (1996) and PhD (2002) in Chemical Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens, Greece. I hold eight training certificates on Aspen Plus issued by Aspentech (2015-2023) and a professional development certificate on effective teaching issued by the UK Higher Education Academy (2016). I was appointed as an Honorary Associate at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, College of Engineering, Civil and Environmental Engineering (2017) and Research Affiliate of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (2017).
From 2002 to 2013 I worked as a researcher in academia and consultant engineer in the private sector participating in more than 40 projects in a number of countries. I was appointed as Pre-Accession Advisor at the Ministry of Environment of Slovakia (2004-2005) and Romania (2006-2007) for the preparations of the countries for the EU membership. I have been Director of the SC European Focus Consulting SRL and SC Zeus Works SRL (Romania), working on the preparation and management of projects funded by the European Commission.

Teaching
My teaching experience includes Process Design & Simulation, Separation Processes, Chemical Reaction Engineering, Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics, Engineering Economics and Safety Engineering & Risk Management.
I had been adviser to the Americal Institure of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) Students Chapter at Nazarbayev University. The Chapter received the award of the Outstanding Chapter for three consequtive years from the AIChE (2016-2018).
Research Interests
My area of research is in the broader area of Environmental Chemical Engineering, covering water/wastewater treatment, porous materials and nanocomposites, valorisation of CO2 for the production of fuels (simulation), adsorption process (including modelling) soil pollution and waste management. Currently I am focusing on porous nanocomposites applications in catalytic and non-catalytic reactions, vulnerability of city water systems and applications of chemical engineering in extraterrestrial environments with particular interest on Mars (simulation).
