bachelor's at Chemistry from University of Strasbourg (1998), master's at DEA des métaux de transition from University of Strasbourg (1998) and doctorate at Chemistry from Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (2002). Has experience in Chemistry, focusing on Chemistry
is Senior Research Fellow at CNRS and performs research at the Laboratory of Organic Synthesis Reactivity and Catalysis at the Institute of Chemistry at the University of Strasbourg (UMR7177).
He realized his thesis work at the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (direction Albert Renken) on the development of structured catalytic beds based on zeolites to perform oxidation formed in the gas phase. In 2002, he joined the group of John Sommer in Strasbourg for a post-doctoral stay during which he developed a method for characterizing the Bronsted acidity of various solid using isotopic labeling H / D. After a teaching assistant at the School of Chemistry, Polymers and Materials of Strasbourg, he joined the CNRS in 2004 as a researcher at the Laboratory of Materials and Processes for Surface Catalysis (UMR7515).
This multidisciplinary research, enough "touch all" of heterogeneous catalysis, develops synthetic routes zeolites way for applications in acid catalysis, focusing on a triple scale design of the active site to the reactor.
Since 2010 the Institute of Chemistry, the team of Patrick Pale, Louis Benoit applies its design work on measurement of zeolites in organic chemistry. Indeed, a controlled doping of the porous solid with metals (Cu, Ni, Ag, Sc) can carry out reactions in organic chemistry in more eco-friendly. He has nearly 80 publications, 2 patents and numerous oral communications and posters
