Dr. L. Ricardez-Sandoval is an Associate Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Waterloo (UW). Dr. Ricardez-Sandoval holds a Canada Research Chair (Tier II) in Multiscale modelling and Process Systems and leads the development of optimal design and operations management methods under uncertainty, the development of novel CO2 capture and conversion technologies aimed at reducing the carbon footprint, and computer-aided design of new materials.
Dr. Ricardez-Sandoval has published more than 180 journal articles, 48 full-length peer-reviewed conference papers, 3 book chapters and 1 book. Dr. Ricardez-Sandoval (h-index: 46) has 7 publications that each have been cited more than 100 times and has published numerous publications on optimal process integration, atomistic and molecular design of novel catalyst materials for CO2 conversion, carbon nanotube growth, oxy-fuel combustion technologies, and on the implementation of machine learning (ML) methods for the optimal design and manufacture of nano-scale materials.
Dr. Ricardez-Sandoval‘s novel contributions in optimal process integration, multiscale modelling, process systems and CO2 capture technologies have been widely recognized by delivering multiple plenary and keynote talks at international conferences, leading the organization of top-tier conferences (e.g. International Program Chair: 2022 DYCOPS-CAB IFAC Symposium) and receiving multiple research-related awards, e.g. Waterloo Instituto of Nanotechnology (WIN) Research Leader in 2023, NSERC Discovery Accelerator Supplement (2017) and Ontario’s Early Researchers Award (2015).
Dr. Ricardez-Sandoval is currently associate editor of the Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering. Also, he is an active member of the NSERC’s Discovery grants committee panel and the Platform thematic committee of the Energy Modelling Hub towards 2050 Net-zero emissions in Canada.
