Adalgisa Rodrigues de Andrade has a degree in Chemistry (Faculty of Philosophy, Sciences and Letters at Ribeirão Preto, University of São Paulo, USP, 1980 (BS)), a Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry at the Chemistry Institute at São Carlos, USP (1988) and she was a Postdoctoral Fellow (University of Aarhus, DK, 1994-1995) where she worked with electrosynthesis and fast cyclic voltammetry (KV) methods using microelectrodes, later in collaboration with the University University of Poitiers, France, 2000, developed research in a direct alcohol fuel cell. more recently, in another post-doc period researchers in biofuel cell devices at the University of Saint Louis, USA, 2009. She is a Full Professor at the University of São Paulo at the Chemistry Department. Dr. De Andrade's research in different areas of electrochemistry mainly in Environmental Electrochemistry preparing electrode materials and performing degradation of different waste compounds. Her recent work is in the field of energy production with fuel cells and biofuel cells working mainly on the anode side oxidizing alcohols and degradation of herbicides and dyes. She has authored over 130 publications and two patents, nine book chapters, and delivered many lectures. She concluded the guidance of graduate students, master's degree, and Ph.D. students and supervised Post-doctoral fellows. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The use of non-renewable fossil-fuel resources is limiting global economic development. In this context, a group of Brazilian and Italian researchers got together to propose the treatment of wastewater from olive mill wastewater (OMW) accounting for 50% of Italian production, and the vinasse wastewater from sugar cane production from Brazil agroindustry. Both disposal wastewaters are cri…
This project proposes ways to enhance the glycerol molecule employing environmentally sustainable electrochemical processes. The two proposed subprojects are part of a systematic investigation that had been implemented over the years at LEEA. In the first approach, the microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) will allow obtaining the bio-hydrogen. This subject needs more research; its interest h…

The project under development aims to explore the potential of bioelectrochemical systems (BES) in recovering ammonia present in agricultural waste. During the scientific initiation project, a microbial electrode will be prepared for application in BES using the microbial fuel cell (MFC) system. The focus of the study lies on the recovery of ammonia, a high-value-added compound used in th…
The present doctoral project proposes the construction of a Microbial Electrolysis Cell (MEC), a device capable of generating H2 and other chemical byproducts from the oxidation of an organic material, performed with a microbial biofilm supported on a current collector. The formed microbial cell is capable of producing hydrogen in the biocathode, in addition to other high added value inte…
Petroleum wastewater is the largest amount of waste generated in the oil and natural gas industries. It is estimated that for every barrel of oil produced, at least 3 to 10 barrels of residual petroleum water are generated. Petroleum wastewater is made up of a mixture of different organic and inorganic compounds. Among the organic compounds, we can highlight the phenols, thiophenes and th…
In the production of plastic packaging, widely used in the food industry, polymers and additives are used as raw material to obtain better results from the final product. Because it is in direct contact with food, some constituents that make up the packaging may migrate from the coating to the product depending on the temperature and pressure that is applied. Normally, some monomers of po…
Resources scarcity and electricity demand have been dramatically increasing in last decades. In today's overpopulated and globalized world, the efficient removal of dyes from textile effluents is one of the most challenging environmental problems. Dye wastewater adversely affects the environment due to its immense color and toxicity. However, current wastewater treatment technologies have…

The contamination of soil and water by oil and its derivatives has increased considerably, causing serious damage to health and the environment, and ending up becoming an object of significant concern among researchers and regulatory agencies in the area of health and the environment. Oil and its derivatives are composed of a mixture of different organic compounds. Among the organic compo…
Hydrogen production has been calling the attention of several investigators. The ongoing scholarship in Brazil (grant number 2019/24916-0) aims at the construction of a microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) for H production, a device to generate H, and important by-products from the oxidation of glycerol. Until now, satisfactory results have been obtained in the project. Power density curve…
Biofuel cell provides a means to obtain clean, renewable energy and has potential for future use as an alternative energy source for low-power electronic devices. The characteristics of enzymatic biofuel cells are quite promising, however, they still present several challenges. Thus, some adjustments in these devices are important objects of research, such as: (1) increase in the generate…
The biofuel cell provides a means to obtain clean, renewable energy and has potential for future use as an alternative energy source for low-power electronic devices. Despite some promising characteristics of this technology, many challenges still have to be faced regarding the future application of enzymatic biofuel cells. Some key issues in the development of this device, such as lifeti…
