Francesco Parrino Editor

Francesco Parrino is an Assistant Professor of Chemistry at the University of Trento, Italy. He graduated cum laude in Chemical Engineering from the University of Palermo in 2005 and got a PhD in Inorganic Chemistry from the Friedrich-Alexander University of Erlangen–Nürnberg, Germany, in 2009. His research activity deals with the preparation and characterization of photocatalysts for degradation of pollutants and for green synthesis of organic molecules. His scientific production conjugates mechanistic and fundamental aspects of heterogeneous photocatalysis with engineering issues for industrial applications. He has authored approximately 80 joint papers in collaboration with scientists from all over the world and several communications for international conferences on these topics. Leonardo Palmisano is a professor of chemistry at the Università di Palermo, Italy. His research focuses mainly on heterogeneous photocatalysis. He has visited many laboratories around the world and has coordinated many research projects. Prof. Palmisano has published more than 300 joint papers in international journals, about 400 papers in proceedings of national and international conferences, and many scientific and didactical books.
