Solvent Engineering

This book aims to present the concept of Solvent Engineering within a broad scope, ranging from mixtures of solvents to achieve the desired solvation properties, to stimuli-responsive solvents.

Yaocihuatl Medina-Gonzalez is a CNRS Research Scientist at the Laboratory of the Future and the University of Bordeaux in France. She conducts research in various areas of solvent engineering, including stimuli-responsive solvents for extraction, gas-expanded solvents, and solvents for materials science and environmental applications. She has secured funding from both public and private organizations to support her research, supervised numerous PhD theses, and published a substantial number of scientific articles in high-impact journals.
