Research Manager
Juan obtained his Master of Science in chemical engineering from the University of Twente and went on to join ALLFED as a researcher. He has a background on carbon dioxide capture and utilization with his MSc thesis and his experience at the Energy Research Centre of the Netherlands. His work at ALLFED focuses on assessing the potential of various technologies for production of food resilient to global catastrophes, including: fermentation technology in general, single cell proteins from CO₂ or natural gas, sugars from plant fiber or CO₂, fats from microorganisms or hydrocarbons, microbial electrosynthesis, and non-biological synthesis of food from CO₂ or hydrocarbons.
He also works on circular food production systems for space missions, and on policy transfer of academic studies of global catastrophic risks to policy action. Connect with Juan on LinkedIn.
