Autorenporträt

Dr. Nanda's research areas are related to the production of advanced biofuels and biochemicals through thermochemical and biochemicalconversion technologies such as gasification, pyrolysis and fermentation. He is an expert researcher inhydrothermal gasification of a wide variety of organic wastes and biomass including agricultural and forestry residues, industrial effluents, municipal solid wastes, sewage sludge and food wastes to produce hydrogen fuel. His parallel interests are also in the generation of hydrothermal flames for treatment of hazardous wastes, agronomic applications of biochar, phytoremediation of heavy metal contaminated soils, as well as carbon capture and sequestration. Dr. Nanda leads many transdisciplinary research projects relating to clean energy, smart materials, environmentand public health. Dr. Nanda has published more than 50 peer-reviewed journal articles, 5 book chapters and more than 50 conference proceedings. He is serving as the second editor in one book " Recent advancement in biofuel and bioenergy production to be published by Springer Nature in 2018. Dr. Sarangi's main research is focused on bioprocess engineering, renewable energy, biochemicals, biomaterials, bioplastics and biocomposites towards sustainability and livelihood development. His expertise is in biomass degradation into bioplastics, lignocellulosic biomass conversion and second generation biofuel and environmental waste remediation. He has taken leading role as principal investigator in different R&D projects on biomass conversion, Biofuel from renewable resources and microbial biodegradation into value added products. He has more than 12 years of teaching and research experience in Biochemical Engineering, Microbial Biotechnology, Downstream Processing, Food microbiology and Molecular Biology. He has served as a reviewer for many International journals like Applied and Environmental Microbiology, Journal of Brewing and Distilling, British Journal of Biotechnology and BioInfo publications. He has published more than 55 research articles in peer-reviewed international journal and authored in more than 15 book chapters along with more than 70 conference proceedings. He is serving as the first editor in one book " Recent advancement in biofuel and bioenergy production to be published by Springer Nature in 2018. Dr. Dai-Viet N. Vo's research fields are the production of green synthetic fuels via Fischer-Tropsch synthesis using biomass-derived syngas. He is an expert in advanced material synthesis, catalyst characterization and catalytic reforming processes of biomass feedstocks for hydrogen generation as well as Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. He has been a reviewer for many prestigious international journals such as Fuel, Catalysis Today, Applied Energy, Fuel Processing Technology and Renewable Energy. He has worked as the Principal Investigator and Co-Investigator in 15 different funded research projects related to sustainable and alternative energy. He has published 35 peer-reviewed journals, 1 book, 1 book chapter and 60 conference proceedings. He has served in technical and publication committee of 3 international conferences in chemical engineering. Dr. Vo is currently serving as the guest editor for a special issue in International Journal of Hydrogen Energy.
