Dr. Cyril Aymonier

Cyril Aymonier is CNRS senior researcher at the Institut de Chimie de la Matière Condensée in Bordeaux (ICMCB-CNRS, France). He graduated (PhD) in 2000 from the University of Bordeaux on the study of Supercritical Water Oxidation (SCWO) and spent two years as a Post-Doc at the University of Freiburg (Germany). He became CNRS researcher at ICMCB in 2002, led the research group “Supercritical Fluids” between 2011 and 2021 and is now Director of ICMCB. His current research interests are i) the study of the chemistry and nucleation & growth in supercritical fluids applied to the synthesis and shaping of advanced nanostructured materials, ii) the study of materials recycling using supercritical fluids and iii) the development of the associated supercritical fluids based technologies. Cyril Aymonier has so far authored/co-authored 181 peer-reviewed journal articles, 10 book chapters, 44 patents and gave 76 invited talks in national and international meetings. He was awarded by the CNRS bronze medal and the Roy Somiya award for his scientific achievements.
