Dr. Dan Bahadur Pal is currently working as an Assistant Professor, Department of Chemical Engineering, Harcourt Butler Technical University, Uttar Pradesh India. He received his M. Tech in 2011 and Ph.D. in 2017, in the field of Chemical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology (BHU) Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India. He completed his doctorate degree in the field of nanotechnology and catalysis. These nanofibers have very promising potential to provide benefits to nanotechnologies, energy, environment, catalysts, sensors etc. Dr. Pal has more than 81 publications in journals of international repute, six books and thirty book chapters. His research interest is nanotechnology, catalysis, energy and environment and waste management with a special focus in developing process and materials by using waste as raw materials. He also prefers to work on bio-waste processing and value addition.

 Dr. Ashutosh Kumar Rai is an Assistant Professor of Biochemistry at the College of Medicine, Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University, Saudi Arabia since 2017. He is involved in teaching, research, laboratory, and administrative work. He completed his Ph.D. (2012) in Applied Biochemistry from the School of Biotechnology, Banaras Hindu University, India with a specialization in microbial biotechnology and molecular biology. During his Ph.D. he worked on cyanotoxins (microcystins) and plant growth-promoting bacteria. After completing his Ph.D., he worked on a project related to enhanced biofuel production in algae using genetic engineering techniques at ICGEB, New Delhi. Furthermore, he has worked on a metaproteomic-based project at ICAR-NBAIM. Dr. Rai worked at the School of Biotechnology, JNU New Delhi as DST-SERB Young Scientist and Principal Investigator in a young scientist scheme project and worked on a host-pathogen interactions-based study. His current area of research interests are Microbial Biotechnology, Molecular Biology and Proteomics, Biomass and Biofuels,
