Dr. Maulin P. Shah is an active researcher and scientific writer in his field for over 20 years. He received a B.Sc. degree (1999) in Microbiology from Gujarat University, Godhra (Gujarat), India. He also earned his Ph.D. degree (2005) in Environmental Microbiology from Sardar Patel University, Vallabh Vidyanagar (Gujarat) India. His research interests include Biological Wastewater Treatment, Environmental Microbiology, Biodegradation, Bioremediation, & Phytoremediation of Environmental Pollutants from Industrial Wastewaters. He has published more than 250 research papers in national and international journals of repute on various aspects of microbial biodegradation and bioremediation of environmental pollutants. He is the editor of 200 books of international repute (Elsevier, RSC, Nova Sciences, De Gruyter, Springer, Wiley, IOP and CRC Press). Pooja Ghosh did her Masters in Environmental Biology from University of Delhi, India followed by her doctorate in Environmental Microbiology and Biotechnology from Jawaharlal Nehru University, India. Her doctoral work involved risk assessment of landfill leachate from unengineered landfill sites and its treatment and detoxification. It contributed significantly in aiding policymakers, environmentalists, scientists, students, and most importantly, citizens, in realizing the problem of unengineered landfill sites of India. Currently, she is working as a DST-Inspire Faculty at Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, India and carrying out her post-doctoral research on energy recovery from municipal solid wastes using bioreactor landfill technology and assessing the environmental profiles and greenhouse gas emissions in the bioreactor landfill and comparing it with the alternative waste management options used in India using Life Cycle Assessment methodology. Her broad research interests include Solid waste management, Bioremediation, Wastewater treatment, Toxicology, Life cycle assessment and sustainability. She has published in over 20 peer-reviewed journals and book chapters, being cited 385 times with an h index of 11 and an i10 index of 12. She is a reviewer of Bioresource Technology, Science of the total environment, Environmental Science and Pollution Research, Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, Chemosphere and Journal of Environmental Management.
