Dr. Ignacio Tudela Montes

Biography

Applied Electrochemistry has been at the core of Ignacio Tudela-Montes' work since his early research days. His research focuses on the development of novel sonoelectrochemical methods for remediating polluted drinking water and manufacturing anode materials for electrochemical processes. He has also worked on the design and optimization of electrochemical reactors and the development of novel tribological materials, particularly for evaluating corrosion performance in non-conductive oils. Ignacio began his research career in April 2007 as part of the NDTESB Research Group under the guidance of late Dr. José González-García at the University of Alicante, Spain. His research was centered on the design and development of electrochemical sonoelectrochemical processes. In June 2011, he joined Daido Metal – European Technical Centre in the UK as a Materials Researcher involved in a Knowledge Transfer Partnership project with Coventry University, focusing on novel materials for engine bearing applications. After completing his PhD in June 2015, he became Senior Materials Researcher at Daido Metal, leading efforts in developing novel material solutions for tribological applications. Since July 2018, Ignacio has been leading the Electrochemical Engineering research area at the Institute of Materials and Processes in the School of Engineering at the University of Edinburgh, where he also engages in educational mentoring activities for Chemical Engineering students.
