Alexandra Ioannidi
Postdoctoral Researcher
Alexandra Ioannidi holds a Chemical Engineering degree (M.Eng., 2016), an M.Sc. in Chemical Engineering (Energy and Environment, 2018), and a Ph.D. (2023) from the University of Patras, Greece. She is currently a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Department of Sustainable Agriculture, University of Patras.
She has taught Composting & Soil Organic Matter and Agricultural Physical Chemistry at the Department of Agriculture, as well as Analytical Chemistry and Thermodynamics I at Liaoning University of Technology, PRC.
She has also served as a teaching assistant in Physical Chemistry Laboratory and Biochemical Process Engineering at ChemEngUP, advised a diploma thesis in the Department of Agriculture, and co-advised more than 30 and 4 diploma theses in ChemEngUP, and Agriculture, respectively.
Her research focuses on developing hybrid catalytic materials and advanced processes for environmental protection and energy production, with emphasis on solar-assisted photocatalysis, electrochemical processes, and waste valorization (e.g., iron from red mud, catalysts from biochar). She has published 24 peer-reviewed articles in international journals (mean IF ≈ 7.12), with an h-index of 11 and more than 563 citations (Google Scholar).
She has delivered over ten presentations at international and national conferences and workshops.
She has participated in two funded research projects (INVALOR Infrastructure for Waste Valorization and 2De4P Photocatalytic Process for Pathogens and Pharmaceuticals) and has received two competitive fellowships from the Greek State Scholarship Foundation (IKY) and the Hellenic Foundation for Research and Innovation for postgraduate and doctoral work on innovative catalytic materials and systems.
She serves as a reviewer for ten international scientific journals, is Guest Editor of the Special Issue Recent Advances in Photocatalytic Wastewater Treatment in Catalysts, and acts as an evaluator for grant proposals for the National Science Centre, Poland (OPUS program).
