Katarzyna Chojnacka is a full professor of chemical technology at
Wroclaw University of Technology (Poland), where she also obtained
her academic degrees. Her research is focused on biosorption and bio-
accumulation and their technological applications, as well as on algae
and algae-based products.
At present she leads national research programme on the technology of
algal extracts and their application as plant growth biostimulants, dietary
feed supplements and cosmetics. Participates in research-industry teams
on industrial production of agrochemicals and fertilizers. She is an expert
of Polish Ministry of Agriculture and Polish National Centre for Research
and Development. She has published around 300 research papers, written
one book and 6 chapters in books. Contributed to international scientific
encyclopedia (7 chapters). She holds 19 patents.
