Professor Macchi completed both his BEng and MASc at Ecole Polytechnique de Montréal, after which he attended the University of British Columbia for his PhD. During his graduate studies he worked on a variety of fundamental and applied multiphase reaction engineering projects, such as the drying and granulation of sludge and slurries in a spouted bed with Gaz Métro, the hydrodynamic scaling of a high-pressure foaming three-phase fluidized bed hydroprocessor (LC-FinerSM) with Syncrude Canada Ltd., and a kinetic study of vanadium phosphorus oxide catalyst employed in the partial oxidation of...Read more
