Researcher

Biography

Moisés R. Cesário has a Ph.D. degree in physicochemical sciences from the University of Strasbourg (France) in co-supervision with the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (Brazil). Following a post-doctorate at the University of Aveiro, Portugal, he was Assistant Professor and Researcher at the National Graduate School of Engineering and Research (ENSICAEN), France. He currently is a researcher at the University of the Littoral Opal Coast (ULCO), France.

New and cheap technologies for obtaining "clean" energy using catalytic materials prepared by techniques of easy handling has been the main goal of his work. Passionate about research, innovation and new challenges in the field of materials for fuel cells and catalysis, he participated in several research projects, namely on powder preparation of cathode/electrolyte materials, thin film preparations and their electrochemical performances in Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs). He also worked with catalytic materials and their applications in chemical processes for hydrogen production. From his work resulted he is the author of articles published in scientific conferences and journals, patent, book and book chapter writing.
