Author Information

Dr. Michel Brienzo is a researcher at São Paulo State University (Unesp), Institute for Research in Bioenergy (IPBEN), working in Biomass Characterization for Bioenergy and Biorefinery, coordinating the Lab of Characterization and Conversion of Biomass.  Dr. Brienzo holds B.Eng in Biochemical with an emphasis in Biotechnology and a Ph.D. grade in Applied Microbiology Sciences from the University of São Paulo (USP). Dr. Brienzo worked as a researcher for 3 years at the National Institute of Metrology, Quality and Technology (Inmetro), working in the physicochemical characterization of biomass and enzymatic digestibility of lignocellulose (chemistry and enzymology of biomass bioconversion). Dr. Brienzo has a post-doctoral position achieved at Stellenbosch University (South Africa) in the Process Engineering Department studying physicochemical properties of biomass. Dr. Brienzo researches are focused mainly on the biomass chemical and physicochemical properties, polysaccharides extraction, pretreatment, and enzymatic hydrolysis. Hemicellulose has special attention on his projects that study its solubilization, conversion into bioactive compounds, and bioplastic/biomaterials obtaining.
