    Alex Maldonado Researcher at DIOPMA @ Universitat de Barcelona

    I held a degree in Technical Architecture (EPSEB, UPC, Catalunya) and Materials Engineering (UB, Barcelona). I also held a Master's in Renewable and Sustainable Energy (UB, Barcelona). I joined in DIOPMA in October 2016 as a trainee. Currently, I combine the position as a research assistant with the position of adjunct lecturer in the Materials science and chemistry-physics department. I have just finished my PhD thesis based on the formulation of alkali-activated binders using bottom ash from municipal waste incineration. This investigation combines the main research that I am involved in, which are the valorisation of waste and by-products and the design of sustainable cement-based materials.
