Agnes Digranes

• I'm working as a Development and Research engineer at the department of Binders and Additives at RISE in Stockholm. My area is batteries, with focus on battery prototyping and slurry mixing. Currently I'm involved in two battery scaleup projects, ZincUp and EU-project GIGABAT, as well as setting up the new battery- and slurry lab of RISE.

• In 2007 I got my M.Sc. degree Chemical Engineering from Uppsala University where I did my master thesis within the Battery group.

• My first position at Delaval in Stockholm where I worked with environmental testing, issues related to corrosion, and polymer materials. My next position was as a process engineer at Boliden Zinc Smelter in Norway. Here I had the opportunity to be closely involved in the daily process, working with improving the process and expansion of the smelter. My last year I managed the group of process engineers. I moved to Trondheim in 2014 and worked as a senior Engineer at NTNU within the Electrochemistry group and SINTEF Battery Group. I was a part of the team setting up the new pilot battery lab of SINTEF.

• My expertise is within laboratory management, process engineering, battery slurry mixing and rheology, coating, battery prototyping (on prototype and pilot scale) and AC and DC electrochemical testing.
