About
Dr Katarina Jakovljević is a researcher at the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at NTNU, with a multidisciplinary background in chemistry and metallurgy. She holds a PhD in organic synthesis, with additional experience in medicinal chemistry. Her current research focuses on sustainable metallurgical processes, particularly the use of alternative carbon materials and the characterisation of gaseous emissions.
Her work focuses on experimental research, with particular emphasis on off-gas characterisation, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emissions, and the environmental impact of high-temperature processes. She has hands-on experience in designing, developing, and implementing gas sampling and analytical setups for laboratory, pilot-scale, and industrial campaigns, including gas analysis using MicroGC and other analytical techniques.
In addition to experimental research, she is involved in international research collaborations, research proposal development, and student supervision. Her research interests lie at the intersection of chemistry, materials science, and metallurgy, with an emphasis on developing more sustainable industrial processes.
