Interestingly, academic institutions, wastewater treatment plants and research centers have upscaled biofilm-based environmental technologies, such as moving bed bioreactors, microalgae, tricking bed reactors, biofilters, and bioelectrochemical process as promising environmental technologies.
Nabin Aryal is an Associate Professor at the University of South-Eastern Norway (USN), Norway. He received MSc in Environmental Technology and Engineering from Ghent University, Belgium, with an Erasmus Mundus fellowship from European Union and then a PhD. from the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) in Environmental Biotechnology with financial support from Novo Nordisk Foundation, Denmark. Before joining USN, Dr Aryal engaged in joint industrial postdoctoral research at Aarhus University and the Danish Gas Technology Center, Denmark. He has more than a decade of work experience from Norway, Denmark, Belgium, the Czech Republic, India, and Nepal. His current research focuses on microbe-material interaction, biofilm-based bioprocess development, anaerobic technology, biogas upgrading, and carbon dioxide utilization. He has co-authored over 40 scientific publications and edited one book on biogas upgrading that received h-index 15 (>1100 citations; Google Scholar). Yifeng Zhang is currently working as an associate professor at the Department of Environmental Engineering, Technical University of Denmark (DTU). He obtained his Ph.D. degree from DTU in 2012. He is also serving as editor/associate editor in several prestigious journals in the field including Water Research, Science of the Total Environment, Frontiers in Microbiology, Sustainable Horizons, Water Cycles etc. His major research interests are microbial electrochemistry and biotechnology to support the 2nd, 6th, 7th, 12th, and 13th UN Sustainable Development Goals through sustainable water treatment, resource recovery, CO2 capture and utilization, biosynthesis, and environmental bioremediation & monitoring.
