Gerrit Ralf Surup
Background and activities
Since my graduation in 2009 I am interested in the thermo-chemical conversion of organic materials, such as biomass and coal. I have worked at Air Liquide on coal gasification and received my PhD at University of Agder on the production of renewable reducing agents for ferroalloy industries.
Since September 2019 I am investigating the electrical, chemical and mechanical properties of carbon materials used in submerged arc furnaces.
