Jaroslaw Krzywanski is an Associate Professor at the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Science at Jan Dlugosz University in Czestochowa, Poland. He received the M.Sc. degree from Czestochowa University of Technology, Department of Mechanical Engineering and Computer Sciences, Institute of Thermal Machinery, Poland and Ph.D. degree from Silesian University of Technology, Faculty of Energy and Environmental Engineering, Poland. He has published more than 100 papers in journals, books and conference proceedings refereed papers and serves as an editorial board member of several international journals. He has participated in the scientific committee of several conferences and serves as a reviewer in a wide range of international journals. He is interested in modeling of energy objects and processes, including gas emissions and hydrogen production from biomass combustion and gasification, respectively. He uses both programmed and AI methods to predict pollutants emissions from biomass co-combustion in large-scale circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boilers, chemical looping combustion (CLC) of biomass in a pilot-scale fluidized bed (FB) systems as well as the H2 concentration in syngas during the hydrogen production via CaO sorption enhanced anaerobic gasification of sawdust in a laboratory-scale FB systems.

For system of oil dispersed in continuous water phase, effects of  and μc were similar to that for water dispersed system. Beside, d32 and S/V decrease with increasing density difference between two phases. C and D significantly influence the flow pattern, which would directly affect the mixing.

Bor-Yann Chen has expertise in biomass energy and environemntal biotechnology. His serial stuides focused on applications in wastewater treatment, bioremediation engineering, biofuel cells. He completed PhD from University of California, Irvine in 1995 and used to be NRC awarded Research Associate to work in NRMRL/US EPA, Cincinnati Ohio. He is Professor, Department of Chemical and Materials Engineering, National I-Lan University, Taiwan. He has published 150+ SCI-peer reviewed papers in reputed journals and has many National Awards (e.g., Professor Yen-Ping Shih Best Paper Awards of 2007, 2011, 2013 and 2016 from Taiwan Institute of Chemical Engineers).

This first-attempt study used extracts of appropriate antioxidant abundant Camellia and non-Camellia tea and medicinal herbs as model electron shuttles (ESs) to stably augment bioelectricity generation performance in microbial fuel cells (MFCs). As ESs (or redox mediators) could stimulate electron transport phenomena by considerable reduction of electron transfer resistance, the efficiency of power generation for energy extraction in microbial fuel cells (MFCs) could be appreciably augmented

Erich Jeitler has completed his PhD 2008 at Graz University of Technology. He is co-owner and general manager of Prozess Optimal CAP GmbH. The company is an engineering office for chemical and process engineering with the focus on process simulation and modelling. He has been also a lecture at the University of Applied Science – FH JOANNEUM in Graz since 2009.

In the chemical and process industry, a variety of thermal unit operations is applied in which gases or vapor mixtures must be cooled down to temperatures near the water dew point. Such mixtures often contain substances which tend to evolve corrosive characteristics in case the temperature unintentionally falls below the water dew point.

Prof Martyn Pemble (1955) joined the Tyndall National Institute in Cork in 2004 under an SFI Investigator Award entitled Novel Routes to the Production of Nanoscale Electronic and Photonic Materials via Chemical Self-Assembly and Templated Surface Engineering'. Prior to this he was Professor of Physical Chemistry and Associate Dean for Research in the Faculty of Science, Engineering and the Environment at the University of Salford in the UK. In November 2008 he was appointed to a Science Foundation Ireland funded post, that of Stokes Professor of Materials Chemistry. This position is a joint position, between the Tyndall National Institute and the Department of Chemistry at UCC. He has published over 270 papers and articles on topics ranging from electrochemical spectroscopic methods to fundamental surface science, through materials growth by metalorganic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD), chemical vapour deposition (CVD) and atomic layer deposition (ALD), to optical spectroscopy and in-situ process monitoring, to novel photonic band gap materials based on synthetic opals and related systems. He is also the author of 2 patents in the CVD area. His h-index currently stands at 37.

Martyn Pemble's group studies the areas of advanced chemical vapour deposition (CVD) systems and atomic layer deposition (ALD) systems, including surface catalysed CVD, high-k dielectrics for advanced CMOS applications including III-V based MOSFETS, high performance capacitors and MIM-based devices, novel photochemically-activated water splitting devices, copper ALD and the ALD of copper diffusion barriers, the growth of novel oxides and doped oxides for smart window applications and other applications requiring transparent conducting materials such as solar cells and displays.
