Avelino Corma Canos was born in Moncófar, Spain, in 1951. He studied chemistry at the Universidad de Valencia (1967−1973) and received his Ph.D. at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid in 1976. He became director of the Instituto de Tecnología Química (UPV-CSIC) at the Universidad Politécnica de Valencia in 1990. His current research field is zeolites as catalysts, covering aspects of synthesis, characterization and reactivity in acid−base and redox catalysis. A. Corma has written about 250 articles on these subjects in international journals, three books, and a number of reviews and book chapters. He is a member of the Editorial Board of Zeolites, Catalysis Review Science and Engineering, Catalysis Letters, Applied Catalysis, Journal of Molecular Catalysis, Research Trends, CaTTech, and Journal of the Chemical Society, Chemical Communications. A. Corma is coauthor of 20 patents, five of them being for commercial applications. He has been awarded with the Dupont Award on new materials (1995), and the Spanish National Award “Leonardo Torres Quevedo” on Technology Research (1996).
