Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Separation Technology

Muhammad Abbas Ahmad Zaini obtained a PhD in Applied Chemistry from Chiba University, Japan in 2010. He is an Associate Professor at the School of Chemical and Energy Engineering, UTM Johor Bahru. His research interests mainly revolve around design and characterization of adsorbent materials and dielectric properties of agro-wastes in microwave-assisted production. He was part of the organizing committee and chief editor for ICoST 2013, 2017 and 2020. Currently, he is a director and principal researcher at the Centre of Lipids Engineering & Applied Research (CLEAR) in Ibnu-Sina Institute for Industrial & Scientific Research (ISI-SIR). Muhammad Abbas is a professional engineer (PEng) registered with the Board of Engineers Malaysia, a professional technologist (PTech) with the Malaysia Board of Technologists, a chartered engineer (CEng) with the UK Engineering Council, and a member of the Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE, UK).   Mazura Jusoh currently an Associate Professor at the School of Chemical and Energy Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia.
