BIO
Dr Marcello Solomon completed his PhD in 2017 at The University of Sydney, researching Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) for the electrocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide under the joint supervision of Prof. Deanna D'Alessandro and Prof. Kate Jolliffe.
Following his PhD, Marcello completed an industry-focused postdoc at The University of Adelaide under Prof. Christian Doonan, supported by Petronas. Here, Marcello researched the use of MOF composite materials for improving the robustness of pipe infrastructure.
After a postdoc at Graz University of Technology with Prof. Paolo Falcaro, Marcello joined Southern Green Gas to research MOFs for applications in Carbon Dioxide Removals Technology.
Marcello returned to The University of Sydney in 2023, where he joined the School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and the Net Zero Institute. He currently enjoys a broad portfolio, covering research in MOF materials and their composites, net-zero focused project leadership, and education.
Marcello is the Deputy Lead of the Direct Air Capture Pillar in the Net Zero Institute
