Dr. Bhaskar Singh received his Ph.D. from the Indian Institute of Technology (BHU), Varanasi, UP, India, in 2010. He also holds an M. Phil. from Pondicherry (Central) University, India, with a gold medal (2006). He is currently serving as an Assistant Professor at the Centre for Environmental Sciences, Central University of Jharkhand, Ranchi, India. Dr. Singh is currently engaged in teaching in the thrust areas of environmental sciences like environmental earth science, natural resources, environmental chemistry, environmental pollution monitoring and, control technologies, etc. He is a reviewer of several international journals, viz., Fuel, Renewable Energy, and Renewable & Sustainable Energy Reviews. His current interests lie in the application of algal biomass for biodiesel synthesis, development of heterogeneous and green catalysts, and corrosion aspects of biodiesel fuel. He has published more than 40 research and review papers in peer-reviewed and high-impact international journals and 14 book chapters by international publishers. He has co-edited & co-authored 3 books. Dr. Abhishek Guldhe is currently working as Associate Professor, Amity institute of Biotechnology, Amity University Maharashtra, Mumbai. He was awarded with prestigious Ramalingaswami Re-entry Fellowship of Department of Biotechnology, Government of India in 2019. He has featured in the list of “World’s top 2% scientists” published by Stanford University, USA. His research focus area is microalgal biotechnology, bioactive compounds, and waste beneficiation. He has worked in many national and multinational funded projects with local governing bodies, industry, and international research groups. He has presented his work in international conferences and workshops in India, South Africa, Brazil, USA, and Canada.
