Biography

Martin van Sint Annaland chairs the research group on Chemical Process Intensification at Eindhoven University of Technology. His work focuses on developing novel multifunctional reactor concepts that leverage advanced (multi-phase) reactor models for improved fundamental understanding. This includes the use of advanced non-invasive experimental techniques for experimental demonstration of novel reactor concepts. Key areas of research include: the integration of reaction and separation processes with a focus on membrane reactors and chemical looping, and exploring the integration of endothermic and exothermic reactions. Notable examples include the innovative coupling of reverse flow reactors with endothermic processes, such as propane dehydrogenation, and the optimization of catalytic processes for efficiency. He aims to intensify efforts in process development through advanced dynamic reactor operation, including innovations like cryogenic separation of CO2 and liquid injection methods. Martin van Sint Annaland holds an MSc and PhD in Chemical Engineering from the University of Twente (UT), and has served in various academic roles, progressing from Assistant Professor to Full Professor at TU/e.
