Angelo Basile is a Full Professor and a leading authority in membrane science and technology. Since 2014, he has served as Full Professor in Systems, Methods and Technologies of Chemical Engineering Processes at CNR-ITM in Rende, Italy. His work covers hydrogen purification and production using membrane reactors, CO₂ capture, process intensification, and the treatment of industrial effluents with advanced membrane operations. Basile has edited many scientific books and authored numerous book chapters, bridging complex research with clear knowledge for engineers and scientists. Motivated by the role of AI/ML in accelerating membrane process design and automation, he supports integrating data-driven methods for smart plants and reaction–separation optimisation. Gabriele Centi is full professor of Industrial Chemistry at the University of Messina, Italy, and President of the European Research Institute of Catalysis (ERIC). Research interests are in the areas of applied heterogeneous catalysis, sustainable energy and chemical processes, biomass conversion and environment protection.He was coordinator of the EU Network of Excellence IDECAT, and is actually President of IACS (International Association of Catalysis Societies) and vice-President of the InterUniversity Consortium on the Science and Technology of Materials (INSTM). He was coordinator or PI in over twenty EU projects, besides many other national and industrial projects. He received several awards, and is involved in various editorial activities, between which chairing the editorial board of ChemSusChem and be co-editor in chief of Journal of Energy Chemistry. He is chair of the Elsevier Book Series Studies in Surface Science and Catalysis. He was chairperson of many international conferences (the last one Europacat 2017 in Florence) and also chaired the 1st World Congress on Environmental Catalysis in Pisa (Italy) on May 1995. He is author of over 450 scientific publications, 12 books and editor of various special issues. Current h-index is 76 with about 21.000 citations (Google Scholar). Marcello De Falco is an associate professor of the Faculty of Engineering of “Campus Bio-Medico” of Rome and a researcher expert in reactor modeling, chemical plants optimization and energy systems. He has about 100 publications on reactor simulations, solar technologies, chemical processes development and technologies assessment. He is author of 5 books published by Wiley and Springer and project manager of research projects on energy production and energy storage innovative technologies. Gaetano Iaquaniello, is a Vice President Innovation Strategy at KT - Kinetics Technology and Managing Director of Processi Innovativi, Green Chemicals & Fuel. He received his MSc in C.E. cum laude from University of Rome in 1975, docteur d’université, the UER de Sciences, University of Limoges in 1984 and an M.Sc. in Management from the London Business School in 1997.He has almost 40 years’ experience in designing and operating chemical plants, particularly, for syngas manufacturing. He authored and co-authored numerous papers, patents and books on syngas production and more recently on membrane reactors and CO2 reuse. From 2009 he has been coordinator of Italian Society of Chemical Engineers (ADIC) for Central Italy and member of the national Board.Since beginning 2011, he has also been V.P. Corporate Technology of the Maire Tecnimont Innovation Center BV in the Netherlands, and from 2015 is also CEO Bio-P, a start-up
