Dr. Mohammad Omaish Ansari obtained his Ph.D. degree from Applied Chemistry, Aligarh Muslim University in 2012. He is currently working as Assistant Professor in the Center of Nanotechnology, King Abdulaziz University, Saudi Arabia. Prior to joining King Abdulaziz University, he also worked as Assistant Professor at Yeungnam Univeristy, South Korea, where he was actively involved in teaching and research activities. He has published research papers in the field of conducting polymers, gas sensors, energy storage materials, photocatalysis, adsorptive removal of pollutants and nanocomposites in the journals of high repute and has also presented his work in national and international conferences.
Mohammad Shahadat (Md. Shad) is completed doctorate and M.Sc. (Analytical Chemistry) from Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh, India. He has completed his Post Doctoral Fellow in the Division of Environmental Technology, Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) Malaysia. He has been published over 40 research articles and 14 book chapters in the journals of international repute. Recently he has been working under DST-SERB Young scientist scheme awarded from DST-SERB, Govt. of India for a research project at Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi, India jointly at the Department of Biochemical Engineering & Biotechnology and Department of Textile Technology. His research interests are synthesis, characterizations and analytical applications of clay-based low-cost adsorbent and Polyaniline-CNT/Graphene-supported biodegradable nanocomposite materials and their significant applications in various fields, including wastewater treatment, electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, UV-protection as well as their paramedical applications.
Dr. Mohammad Zain Khan, Ph.D., isan Assistant Professor of Industrial Chemistry at the Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh, India. He did his Masters in Industrial Chemistry and Ph.D. in Environmental Chemistry (Wastewater bioremediation) from AMU Aligarh. He was awarded the prestigious Erasmus Mundus Fellowship by the European Union to work at the prestigious University College of London as PDF. He has also worked at IIT Delhi as Project Scientist under the DST Fast Track Young Scientist Scheme. His main area of interest is the bioremediation of organic compounds along with energy recovery in the form of electricity, hydrogen or methane using Bioelectrochemical Systems (BESs). Currently, he is running research projects funded by the DST and UGC funding bodies of the government of India and supervising Ph.D. and MPhil candidates. He has published some very interesting research articles, including review articles in peer-reviewed journals and presented papers in various national and international conferences.
