Jane Meri Santos; Neyval Costa Reis Junior

A professora Jane Meri Santos possui graduação em Engenharia Mecânica pela Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo (UFES), mestrado em Engenharia Mecânica pela Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio de Janeiro e doutorado em Engenharia Química pela Universidade de Manchester (UMIST). É Professora Titular do Departamento de Engenharia Ambiental da Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo (UFES). Atua principalmente em fenômenos de transporte computacional e turbulência atmosférica, com aplicações em emissão e dispersão atmosférica de partículas, gases odorantes e COV em ambientes urbanos e industriais. Realizou estágio pós-doutoral na École des Mines d'Alès na França, onde examinou o mecanismo de volatilização de gases a partir de superfícies líquidas aplicada a emissão de gases odorantes e COV em unidade de tratamento de águas residuais. Foi professora visitante na Universidade New South Wales na Austrália, onde investigou a transferência de quantidade de movimento e massa na interface ar-líquido a fim de estimar a emissão atmosférica de COV e gases odorantes a partir de superfícies passivas e na University of Southampton no Reino Unido, onde realizou a modelagem dos mecanismos de transferência de massa na canopia urbana utilizando LES e DNS. Já publicou cerca de 50 artigos em períodicos de alta relevância nos últimos 10 anos. Orientou (como orientador principal) 8 teses de doutorado, dissertações de mestrado, 20 projetos de iniciação científica e realizou 5 supervisões de pós-doutorado. Coordenou diversos projetos nacionais e internacionais financiados por indústrias e por agencias nacionais e estaduais de fomento a pesquisa científica.

Prof. Jane Meri Santos undertook her PhD studies at the University of Manchester (UMIST) where she investigated dispersion modelling in urban areas. She is Full Professor in Air Pollution at the Department of Environmental Engineering within the Federal University of Espirito Santo (UFES). During her time at UFES she has been a visiting scholar at the École des Mines d?Alès in France where she undertook research examining methodologies for estimating odour emissions from wastewater treatment plants and a visiting professorial fellow at the University of New South Wales in Australia where she carried out an investigation on momentum and mass transfer on the interface air-liquid to evaluate parametrization for estimating atmospheric emission from passive surfaces. She holds a Research Scholarship from CNPq, which is a competitive scholarship available to Brazilian scientists. Since 2011, she has published forty articles in high quality, peer-reviewed international journals, with more than twenty-five articles in national and international conference proceedings. She has also successfully supervised nine PhD students. Since 2011, Dr Santos has secured over US$ 1,840,000.00 in research income from Research Councils and industry through a competitive bidding process. She has also been awarded about US$ 450,000.00 for undergraduate student mobility for eight years. She has acted both as an external examiner and co-supervisor for PhD students in Australia and France. In 2011 she was responsible for organising and chairing the 4th IWA Conference on Odours and VOCs and in 2017 the 3th CMAS South America ? Air Pollution Conference Brazil. She leads the Air Quality Research group at UFES, which comprises eight academic staff, three of whom also hold CNPq researcher scholarships, one post-doctoral researcher and over twenty PhD students. Her research group has obtained a grant for Excellence in Research (2011-2015) to the value of US$ 220,000.00 from the local funding agency (PRONEX FAPES/CNPq).
