Advances in Waste-to-Energy Technologies

Dr. Rajeev Pratap Singh is an Assistant Professor at Institute of Environment and Sustainable Development (IESD), Banaras Hindu University (INDIA), has completed his Ph.D. from Banaras Hindu University, India. His major research interests are – solid waste management, bio-composting, and green technologies. He has received several International awards, including the "Green Talent" award from Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), Germany; Prosper.Net Scopus Young Scientist award, DST Young Scientist Award etc. Dr. Singh is serving as the member of reviewer and editorial team of several important scientific journals. Also, Dr Singh has co-authored 5 books and more than 40 highly cited research and review articles on solid waste management. Dr Singh also availed Water Advanced Research and Innovation (WARI) Fellowship, a fellowship supported by the Department of Science and Technology (DST), Govt. of India, the Indo-US Science and Technology Forum (IUSSTF), University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) and the Robert Daugherty Water for Food Institute (DWFI).Dr. Vishal Prasad, working as Assistant Professor in the Institute of Environment and Sustainable Development, Banaras Hindu University, is working in the area of microorganisms mediated management of environmental problems. Management of organic solid waste is one of his areas of concern and work on beneficial microbes producing useful products from such waste using potential biotechnological tools is being carried out. Dr. Prasad is member of several scientific societies and also serves as a reviewer and member of several scientific journals.Ms. Barkha Vaish is working as a CSIR-SRF, at Institute of Environment and Sustainable Development (IESD), Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, India. Ms. Vaish has done her M.Sc. in Environmental Science from Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University (A central university) and pursuing her Ph.D. at Institute of Environment and Sustainable Development (IESD), Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, India. She is a budding researcher devoted in the field of waste-to-energy conversion technologies, solid waste management, and sustainable agricultural practices.
