... His current research focuses on the use of synthetic biology and metabolic engineering approaches to engineer microorganisms to convert CO2 to valuable chemicals. The primary research goals of his group are to develop a platform for valuable chemical production from carbon dioxide using photosynthetic microorganisms and to develop novel biosynthetic pathways to produce chemical compounds that microbes naturally produce in trace amounts or not at all.

... Comello has been a lead author on various academic publications and government reports exploring topics such as carbon capture and utilization in the industrial sector; at-scale deployment of carbon capture, use, and storage in the United States; policy for carbon capture in California; the market and policy prospects for clean hydrogen industrial hubs in the United States; financial regulation and clean energy capital flows; and corporate decarbonization strategies. He holds a Ph.D.

... He is one of the two lead authors of the Zero Emission Platform report titled "A Trans-European CO2 Transportation Infrastructure for CCUS: Opportunities & Challenges." The report is aimed at facilitating the development of a pipeline and ship infrastructure for transporting several million tonnes CO2 per year captured from major regional industrial emitters for permanent offshore geological storage; considered as a key enabler for meeting net-zero-emissions target by 2030. His PipeTech computer program is routinely used by several major international corporations and legislative organizations for safety analysis of thousands of kilometers of pressurized pipelines across the globe.

... In 2018, she was awarded one of the largest scientific grants for individuals in the Netherlands to investigate the system impacts of using alternative raw materials such as CO2, biomass, and waste in petrochemical industrial clusters. In the past 10 years, Ramírez co-coordinated the European project Environmental Due Diligence of Novel CO2 Capture and Utilization Technologies, led the research line Techno-economic and Environmental Analysis of the Dutch R&D program Catalysis for Sustainable Chemicals from Biomass, and coordinated the program line Transport and Chain Integration of the Dutch R&D program for CO2 Capture, Transport, and Storage.
