Evgeny Rebrov is full professor of Energy Intensified Reactor Engineering in the School of Engineering at the University of Warwick since 2014. He got his PhD in Chemistry from Boreskov Institute of Catalysis (Novosibirsk, Russia) in 1999 and DSc in Chemical Engineering from Lomonosov Moscow University of Fine Chemical Technology in 2012. In 2007 he got a fellowship from the British Council-NWO partnership program in science and went to Cambridge University (UK), where he worked on the synthesis and characterisation of bimetallic nanoparticles. In 2009, he was appointed Visiting Research Professor at Wright State University (Dayton, Ohio). In 2010, he took the position of Chair of Chemical Reactor Engineering at Queen’s University Belfast (UK).
Over the last 10 years, he has developed a novel platform technology which is offering a new and exciting way to change the landscape of the fine chemical and pharmaceutical manufacturing processes through applications of catalytic coatings in structured reactors. The developed process cuts down on operational costs in plants, and provides an end product of greater purity. In 2016, he established the company, StoliCatalysts Ltd.
Prof. Evgeny Rebrov is Fellow of the Young Academy of Europe (YAE) and corresponding member of the Scientific Council for Catalysis at the Department of Chemistry and Materials Science of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
