Jonas Hereijgers obtained his PhD in Engineering Sciences in 2016 at the University of Brussels (VUB). Afterwards he became a post-doctoral researcher at the research group Applied Electrochemistry & Catalysis (ELCAT) of the University of Antwerp and since the first of October 2022 he is appointed as a tenure-track professor at the Faculty of Applied Engineering of the same university. Currently, he is author of more than 30 peer-reviewed A1 publications , promotor of the ERC Starting grant project RECHARGE and (co-)promotor of multiple research projects. As a researcher, Jonas studies the effects of mass transfer, hydrodynamics and electrode geometry in the field of electrochemical engineering. Electrochemistry is one of the answers to a greener and a more renewable chemical industry. For instance, electrochemical process typically occur at ambient conditions, no longer requiring to heat up the process like in conventional chemical processes. Hence, utilising renewable electricity to drive the reaction, the process can proceed much more efficiently. In addition, electrochemistry offers a way to store energy in a chemical way for instance through the production of hydrogen gas or (flow) batteries. This allows our society to make the shift from a fossil based economy to a green and sustainable one. The electrode surface at which the electrochemical reaction takes place is the heart of any electrochemical process. Consequently the transport of reagents towards this surface are crucial and should be large enough to obtain a satisfying yield. Jonas investigates how to improve these parameters for instance through the development of innovative, ordered 3D electrodes and flow profiles
