5th International Conference on Green Chemistry, Renewable Energy & Sustainability

Patrick Martin, Professor at the University of Artois (Béthune, France) and Director of the Artois site of the Unit Transformations et Agroressources (ULR 7519) is expert in bio-based chemistry (extraction, characterization, formulation/modification). He is specialized in the conception of bio-based products starting from biomolecules and biopolymers as raw material by chemical pathways. His current research interests are in the field; glycochemistry and lipochemistry (surfactants, liquid crystals, biocontrol, biopesticides, drug targeting), secondary metabolites (anti-oxidants, dyes) and biomaterials (plastic, concrete).

Rob has a background in applied geology in tropical and deeply weathered terrains and mining consulting in the fields of due diligence, financial and technical audits, process chemistry, environmental geochemistry, environmental engineering, and mineralogy. He specializes in the application of chemistry and mineralogy to solve engineering problems.
