Graduated with a PhD in Applied Chemistry from the University of Limoges in 2015; Dr. Olivier Rezazgui then did a first post-doctoral fellowship in Rouen before crossing the ocean to settle in Trois-Rivières where he is now a researcher for Innofibre.
Equally at ease on fundamental and industrial projects, Dr. Rezazgui’s guiding principle is the preservation of our planet and sustainable chemistry, as evidenced by his research projects: development of bio-inspired herbicides; recovery of forest residues in bitumen, production of biofuels and reduction of GHG emissions. Naturally curious, he has developed skills in fields as varied as organic synthesis, spectroscopy, biology and molecular modelling during his professional experiences.
Today at Innofibre, CCTT attached to the Cégep de Trois-Rivières; He uses his knowledge to propose innovative solutions to manufacturers to decarbonize their processes. This involves the development of innovative processes in terms of bioenergy, biomaterials, recovery and reuse of residues and other projects in the circular economy.
His motto: There are no incurable diseases, only lack of willpower. There are no worthless herbs, only the lack of knowledge. (Avicenna)
