Professor Muhammad Aamer Mehmood's

research focuses on process optimization for the sustainable utilization of bio-resources, wastewater recycling, resource recovery, and biotransformation of biomass to bioenergy and bioproducts, including biofertilizers, industrial enzymes, and biopolymers employing microalgae/cyanobacteria/fungi as microbial cell factories in a multiproduct biorefinery paradigm. We intend to develop novel low-carbon or carbon-neutral bioprocesses for agriculture and bioindustry while keeping the energy, water, environment, and food nexus sustainable.

Sana Malik's research interests include the development of microalgae and cyanobacteria-based wastewater treatment technologies with concurrent production of high-value bioproducts for food, feed, and fuel applications following a Circular Economy scheme with minimum waste generation maximum resource recovery while keeping the Energy-Water-Environment nexus sustainable. I am also interested in developing carbon-neutral processes and products by harnessing the full potential of algae towards the global agenda of circular economy and net-zero carbon emissions.

Peter J. Ralph's research interest encompass

algae-based bioproducts include the production of food, energy, green chemistry, and bio-products using microalgae and macroalgae. Mass-scale algae cultivation to overcome commercialization barriers in the algae-based biotechnology sector.
