Internship under the IAESTE exchange program. Conducting tutorials, labwork and a part of lectures to BSc. Civil Engineering students in the thematic area of water and wastewater treatment Engineering.

Research intern in the department of Water Management, in the Sanitary Engineering group. Characterization of phosphate rejection in a ceramic nanofiltration membrane, used as pre-treatment for Reverse Osmosis. Use of analytical instruments and conduction of experiments on the laboratory scale ceramic NF membrane set up.

Customer voice monitoring and product observation. Translation (Italian-English), categorization, relevance and tonality evaluation of the customers’ feedbacks

Research assistant in the Department of Urban Water Systems Engineering. Research on unplanned water reuse in Po river basin in Lombardia region, Italy. Responsible of hydrologic and sanitary data evaluation.

Laboratory work in the bioenergy group at the department of Environmental Engineering. The aim of the project I've worked in, is to develop and optimize a biogas process for the pretreated brown macro-algae. Beside the experiment performed for the determination of the biomethane potential of our biomass, the macroalgae was fully characterized in order to valuate its use in a biorefinery prospective.

Traineeship in a potable water treatment plant. Laboratory work and analysis of the main water parameters, such as: iron, manganese, pH, ammonium, orthophosphate and speciation of the arsenic. Cunduction of the respirometric method OUR on the backwash water of the biological filter present in the treatment chain.
