Nabin Aryal is a Postdoctoral Research fellow at Aarhus University, Denmark working on process design and optimization of biogas upgrading, syngas methanation, and microbial electrosynthesis. He has extensive research experience in environmental technology development from Denmark, Belgium, Czech Republic, Nepal, and India. After a Master’s Degree in Environmental Technology and Engineering from Erasmus Mundus fellowship, he worked at the Flemish Institute for Technological Research (VITO), Belgium, to develop (bio) electrochemical technology for CO2 conversion and microbial electrosynthesis. He received his PhD from the Technical University of Denmark on Microbial Electrosynthesis to valorize carbon dioxide. Lars Ditlev Mørck Ottosen is Professor in Environmental Biotechnology with focus on energy and environmental technologies. He is also Head of the Biological and Chemical Engineering Department at Aarhus University, Denmark. He has extended R&D experience from more than a decade in the industry, and as university professor in projects that combine research and industrial technology development. Prof. Ottosen has more than 100 publications. In addition to technology R&D, He is dedicated to education, and played a key role in developing new BSc and MSc educational program in Biological and Chemical Engineering at Aarhus University. Michael Vedel Wegener Kofoed is Project Director and Research Group Leader of Microbial Conversion Technologies in the Biological and Chemical Engineering Section at the Department of Engineering of Aarhus University, Denmark. With expertise in bioengineering and industrial microbiology for solving societal and industrial challenges, his current focus is methanation for producing the storable energy carrier, methane, from renewable electricity. Deepak Pant PhD is a Senior Scientist at the Flemish Institute for Technological Research (VITO), Belgium, currently working on electrosynthesis and resource recovery, specifically, the design and optimization of (bio)electrochemical systems for CO2 conversion and microbial electrosynthesis. He has 5 books (published by Elsevier, Springer and CRC Press), 6 Patent, 138 peer-reviewed publications with >10500 citations (h-index 59) and 35 book chapters to his credit.
