Prof. Fouad Benaliouche graduated from the Department of Mechanical and Energy Engineering, University of Batna (Algeria) in 1996. He received his postgraduate degree in Engineering Process from the EcoleMilitairePolytechnique (EMP), Algiers (Algeria). He pursued his Ph.D. degree (Applied Chemistry) in 2009 from the University ofSciences and Technology HouariBoumedienne (USTHB), Algiers (Algeria). After postdoctoral research at EMP, Fouad was promoted to an Associate Professor in 2014. Currently, he is the Head of the Porous Materials Laboratory in the EMP. Prof. Benaliouche is also interested in the adsorption phenomena related to gases, vapors and liquids. In addition, his current research interests are the porosity modulation and antibacterial activity studies for characterization of microporous zeolite/diatomite adsorbents.
