Selvakumar Periyasamy is an Associate Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at Adama Science and Technology University, Ethiopia. He was awarded his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, India, in 2019. Dr. Selvakumar Periyasamy has over eight years of teaching experience across undergraduate, postgraduate, and doctoral programs, along with more than a decade of research expertise in the fields of Bioenergy, Nanotechnology, Biochemical Engineering, and Environmental Biotechnology.Eduardo Alberto López‑Maldonado holds a BSc. in Chemical Engineering (2009) and a PhD. in Chemical Sciences (2012) from the National Technological Institute of Mexico‑Tijuana, Center for Graduates and Research in Chemistry. His doctoral thesis, a groundbreaking piece of applied scientific research in collaboration with a semiconductor company in Tijuana’s industrial zone, earned him the prestigious Mexican Society of Electrochemistry’s Best Doctoral Thesis award in 2013. The same year, Dr. López‑Maldonado joined the research staff at the Center for Research and Technological Development in Electrochemistry (CIDETEQ) S.C., Tijuana Branch, where he began his research career. His work there involved projects centered on the extraction and properties of natural biopolymers as coagulating, flocculating, and chelating agents.R. Balachandran is a Professor at Adama Science and Technology University, Ethiopia. Over three decades, he has vast experience teaching various Material Science and Engineering courses at undergraduate and postgraduate levels.
