Research on ionic speciation, physicochemical properties, and solid–liquid equilibria in saline solutions, applying thermodynamic models (e.g., Pitzer) and simulation tools for metal recovery and process optimization

Co-supervisor of two undergraduate thesis students under the supervision of Dr. Francisca Justel (Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María), within the framework of research activities associated with her FONDECYT Iniciación project. Actively involved in the scientific training of the students, including methodological guidance, data analysis, and results writing. Participated in the planning and execution of laboratory activities and physicochemical modeling within Dr. Justel’s research group.

- Research internships carried out at the University of Antofagasta and the Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María, aimed at strengthening scientific collaboration and exchanging experimental and computational methodologies in geochemistry and solution thermodynamics.

- Transfer of knowledge acquired during these internships to undergraduate students and members of the research group at UTFSM, contributing to academic training and technical capacity building.

- Active participation in national and international conferences (IWLiME, Hydroprocess, COPPER), disseminating research findings relevant to the scientific community and sectors related to mining and the environment.
