Iwona Kuzniarska-Biernacka completed the PhD in coordination chemistry in 2001/02/14 by Wroclaw University of Science and Technology and MSc in Chemistry in 1996/07/01 by Siedlce University of Natural Sciences and Humanities. Results of her scientific researches, in the field of Chemistry, were presented in 49 scientific papers, 4 book chapters and at 83 scientific conferences (in the form of 15 oral and 63 poster presentations and 5 invited lectures from these 4 at Department of Materials Science University of Silesia, Sosnowiec, Poland, and 1 at Department of Materials Engineering and Welding, Gdansk University of Technology, Gdansk, Poland. She participated in 9 research projects (funded by FCT), and she was PI of 1. She joined the topical advisory panel of Molecules (IF=4.6), and she was guest editor of 2 especial issues. She has large experience in student supervising. She supervised 8 MSc dissertation(s) from these 2 co-supervised and co-supervised 20 students of course completion of LSc/BSc. Has received 2 awards and/or honors. She organized 7 events and participated in 7 workshops. Main scientific area of research: Coordination chemistry, material chemistry, synthesis of transition metal complexes, aluminosilicates (natural and synthetic clays, zeolites), carbon based materials, hybrid materials, preparation of supported catalysts, functionalization of materials, direct immobilization and anchoring/grafting, homogeneous catalysts, liquid phase catalysis in heterogeneous and homogeneous phase, selective oxidation of alkenes, enantioselective oxidation of organic molecules (alkenes and unsaturated alcohols), environmental catalysis, structural, morphology and elemental analysis. Recent scientific area of research: Carbon based materials (graphene, single wall and multi wall carbon nanotubes), graphene doping/ functionalisation, electrochemistry, electrocatalysis, photocatalysis, preparation of carbon nanotubes based electrodes, electrooxidation of organic molecules, and degradation of emerging pollutants, photo-catalysis, (photo)Fenton processes.
