Subhabrata Ray: After obtaining undergraduate (1975) and postgraduate (1977) degrees in Chemical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, India, Ray worked till 1986 in three refineries and the technical department at the HQ of M/s Indian Oil, the premier refining company in India. Thereafter, he worked with M/s TECHNIP-ESIA in France till he joined academics in 1988. Since then he has been teaching Process Equipment Design, Petroleum Refinery Engineering and other courses in the Department of Chemical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur. He is a consultant to M/s Indian Oil Corporation, M/s Numaligarh Refinery, M/s IFB Agro Industries, M/s Hydrogen Energy LLC. (USA), etc. He is also involved in several industrial consultancy and government sponsored projects involving scale up of process and plant design. He regularly conducts courses for industry. Several students under his supervision have won the Acharya P.C. Ray award by the Indian Institute of Chemical Engineers for the best undergraduate design project in India.During his tenure in teaching, he has published more than fifty research papers in international peer reviewed journals. He also holds several patents. Gargi Das graduated in Chemical Engineering from Jadavpur University, Kolkata, India in 1988 with University Gold Medal. This was followed in 1990 with Institute Silver Medal for highest academic proficiency in Chemical Engineering in the M.Tech. course at Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur. In 1996, she obtained her Ph.D. degree from the same institute. She is also the recipient of the ISCA Young Scientist Award from Indian Science Congress in 1995, AICTE Career Award for Young Teachers by All India Council for Technical Education in 1998, Amar-Dye-Chem Award for Excellence in Research and Development by Indian Institute of Chemical Engineers in 1998 and BOYSCAST Fellowship for overseas research from the Department of Science and Technology, Government of India in 1999. She has published more than sixty papers, three book chapters and holds several patents. She has also offered on-line web and video courses under the National Program on Technology Enhanced Learning, Govt. of India in areas of Chemical Engineering.
