Helena Passos obtained her MSc degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Aveiro in 2012. In June of 2017, she completed a European PhD in Chemical Engineering at the University of Aveiro, having during her PhD studies trainees at Technical University of Dortmund, Germany and Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology, Japan. Since July of 2017, Helena Passos is a post-doctoral researcher involved in an international ERA-MIN project concerning the recovery of cobalt and REE from NiMH batteries recycling at CICECO – Aveiro Institute of Materials, University of Aveiro, under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Joćo A. P. Coutinho and in a straight collaboration with the research institute Laboratoire d'Electrochimie et de Physico-chimie des matériaux et des Interfaces (LEPMI), Grenoble, France. Since 2012, Passos published 26 articles in international peer reviewed multidisciplinary high impact journals (ISI, h-index 11), and presented several oral and poster communications in national and international conferences.
