Marcelo Ribeiro is an associate professor of the Chemical Engineering Department at Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar), where he has been since 2013. From 2010 to 2012 he worked as a professor at Federal University of São João Del-Rei (UFSJ), in the Department of Chemistry, Biotechnology and Bioprocess Engineering. He received a B.S. in 2002 and his Ph.D. in 2007, both in Chemical Engineering from UFSCar. During his Ph.D. he studied as an intern in the Othmer Department of Chemical and Biological Sciences and Engineering at Polytechnic University (NY). He was a postdoctoral fellow at Cleveland State University (OH), in the Department of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering. His research interests are in modeling, simulation, optimization and monitoring of bioprocesses. He has been focusing in several industrial bioprocesses for production of: bioethanol from sugarcane; prebiotics from dairy residues; antibiotics via green chemistry and vaccines.

This project focuses on research in bioprocess applications from joint Brazil-U.S collaboration between UFSCar and WVU that addresses the modern challenges of bioprocess modular manufacturing. This collaboration has been ongoing since 2015 and thus has already created research and educational opportunities for both countries. The outcomes of this project are expected to lead to a framewor…
Cheese whey (or its permeate), commonly discarded by small dairy producers, may have an alternative destination such as the enzymatic synthesis of galactooligosaccharides (GOS) using b-galactosidase. GOS has high added value and the enzyme b-galactosidase is considered a GRAS enzyme, and therefore without the need to separate it from the product. However, there are several parameters that…
In this project, the immobilization of beta-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.23) of Kluyveromyces lactis by the method of self-aggregation or cross-linked enzyme aggregates (CLEAs) will be held, in order to produce a stable derivative and with maximum retention of the enzyme catalytic activity that is useful for enzymatic synthesis of galactooligosaccharides (GOS), from lactose, and also to improv…
This post-doctoral intents to contribute not only for the advancement of knowledge in the field of dynamic optimization of semi-batch reactors, developing and validating new advanced control algorithms. It will also focus on industrial application, within a pharmaceutical industry. This activity of process development is funded by a FAPESP-PIPE, 03/13177-4 (Production of Ampicillin by Enz…
