Teodora Retegan
Associate Professor
Chemistry and Chemical Engineering
Chalmers University of Technology
Sweden
Biography
Teodora's competence area is solvent extraction of metals, primarily from spent nuclear fuel for separation of actinides from lanthanides for further transmutation. She is also developing competence in safety related issues for Gen IV systems. Other application of her competence area is in recovery or recycling of valuable metals (platinum group metals, lanthanides, etc) from different sources, like electronic waste (WEEE).
Research Interest
Nuclear Chemistry, Industrial Materials Recycling
