Brief Introduction (<200 words): Oanna Kazimierowicz received her PhD in environmental engineering, mining, and energy from the Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Białystok University of Technology in 2017. In 2023, she obtained her postdoctoral degree (habilitation) in the same discipline. She is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Water, Sewerage, and Heating at Białystok University of Technology.
Her research focuses on environmental biotechnology and materials engineering, with particular emphasis on microalgal systems applied in bioenergy and wastewater treatment. It includes the development of advanced materials for photobioreactors, active carriers for treatment systems, and microalgal biomass immobilization. Her work covers CO2 biosequestration, nutrient recovery from wastewater, algal–bacterial consortia, and the integration of microalgal biomass with anaerobic digestion to enhance biogas and biomethane production. She also investigates the optimization of cultivation systems and the valorization of agri-food waste within circular bioeconomy frameworks, aiming to improve resource recovery, energy efficiency, and sustainability of environmental engineering processes.
