Edgar Clyde R. Lopez, Ph.D.
Dr. Edgar Clyde R. Lopez earned his PhD in Chemical Engineering from the University of the Philippines Diliman in 2024, where he also completed his Master of Science in Chemical Engineering in 2019. He obtained his Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering from the Technological Institute of the Philippines Manila in 2015.
His research focuses on the development of sustainable materials and scalable engineering systems that address critical challenges in clean energy, environmental protection, and human health. Through the Green and Advanced Materials Research Group, Dr. Lopez and his team develop functional and advanced materials for water purification, pollution control, and emission reduction, as well as materials and systems for energy storage and conversion that support cleaner and more sustainable resource use. His research also encompasses nanoscale sensing, surface engineering, and computational materials design, with applications across environmental, energy, and biomedical fields.
His contributions to science and engineering were recognized by the National Academy of Science and Technology, Philippines, which conferred upon him a Special Citation during the 2025 Talent Search for Young Scientists.
Dr. Lopez is currently an Associate Professor at National University Fairview and serves as an Editorial Board Member of Scientific Reports and Discover Chemistry. Beyond academia, he serves as President of the Philippine Institute of Chemical Engineers Metro Manila East Chapter and is a Regular Member of the National Research Council of the Philippines. Through his combined work in research, education, scientific publishing, and professional service, he contributes to advancing chemical engineering and materials research toward practical solutions for environmental sustainability, cleaner energy, and public well-being.
