Biography
Rosa Arrigo (WoS Researcher ID L-6676-2016) is Reader in Inorganic Chemistry at the University of Salford and honorary research scientist at the UK’s synchrotron facility Diamond Light Source.
Her research interests are focused on the design of innovative processes and nanostructured systems for decarbonization technologies in green chemistry and energy storage and conversion. Her research strategy consists of establishing molecular level structure-function relationships through the controlled synthesis of tailored materials, testing and thorough structural characterisation, including but not limited to the extensive use of innovative in situ synchrotron-based techniques such as X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy.
Current projects focus on the conversion of carbon dioxide and H2 production.
Recently, she is investigating the host/guest chemistry in metal-organic frameworks for several applications, including biomedicine.
