Daria C. Boffito is a professor of chemical engineering at Polytechnique Montréal. She holds the Canada Research Chair in Electrification of Intensified Processes and Catalysis (EPIC). She has received Canadian and international awards, including the Emerging Leader Award from the Canadian Society for Chemical Engineering (2019). In 2014, she was awarded the NSERC Banting Postdoctoral Fellowship. Professor Boffito is one of the executive editors of Ultrasonics Sonochemistry, the leading scientific journal in this field. She also serves on the editorial boards of Mechanochemistry and Tetrahedron Green Chem. In addition to sonochemistry, her research areas include process intensification, biomass conversion, heterogeneous catalysis (and photocatalysis), CO₂ conversion, and the recovery of critical metals from end-of-life streams. Professor Boffito collaborates with several Canadian and international companies in the fields of process intensification, gas-to-liquid technologies and metal extraction.
