Agnes Digranes

• I'm working as a Development and Research Engineer at the department of Binders and Additives at RISE in Stockholm. My focus area is within batteries where I work on 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, with improving the process and the 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 and working with the new pilot battery lab of SINTEF.

• My expertise is within laboratory management, process engineering, battery slurry mixing and rheology, coating, battery prototyping (lab and pilotscale) and testing.
