Magnus Zingler Stummann is a distinguished Principal Scientist at Topsoe, where he spearheads innovative research and development in the hydrotreatment of clean and renewable fuels. With a PhD focused on catalytic hydropyrolysis and a robust portfolio of 10 peer-reviewed articles, Magnus has established himself as a leading expert in the field. His current role involves managing key projects aimed at advancing the hydrotreating processes for next-generation biofuels, particularly those derived from pyrolysis and hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) oils. This work is critical as the industry pivots towards sustainable energy solutions that can meet the growing demand for cleaner fuels.
At Topsoe, Magnus leverages his extensive knowledge in heterogeneous catalysis, reaction kinetics, and thermodynamics to optimize refinery processes and enhance the efficiency of biofuel production. His expertise not only contributes to the development of cutting-edge technologies but also addresses the pressing challenges of carbon emissions and energy sustainability. As a co-supervisor for three PhD students at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), he is also dedicated to nurturing the next generation of scientists, fostering a collaborative environment that encourages innovation and critical thinking.
Magnus’s commitment to process optimization and his deep understanding of the intricacies of hydrotreatment position him as a pivotal figure in the transition towards renewable energy sources. His work at Topsoe not only exemplifies the integration of scientific research with practical applications but also underscores the importance of advancing clean fuel technologies in the global effort to combat climate change.
