Abdul Wahab Mohammad is currently Professor in Membrane and Separation Technology at the Centre for Sustainable Process Technology (CESPRO), Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia. He received his PhD from University of Wales Swansea in the area of nanofiltration membranes, and MSChE from Purdue University, USA and BSChE from Lehigh University, USA. His research interest is on membranes science and applications, wastewater treatment, water reuse and recycling, sustainable separation technology and engineering education. He has worked on research projects related to membrane technology and its application in water and wastewater treatment, desalination, biorefinery and food processing. He has published more than 250 journal papers with citation exceeding 8000 and h-index of 39. He is the co-editor of an Elsevier journal, Journal of Water Process Engineering which was launched in 2014. He was the co-recipient of 2008 Prince Sultan International Water Prize for his work on nanofiltration membranes and the recipient of the Malaysia Toray Foundation Science Award in 2015. Abdul Wahab is a registered Professional Engineer (PEng) in Malaysia and a Chartered Engineer (CEng) in United Kingdom. He was recently inducted as a Fellow of the Academy of Sciences Malaysia. Wei Lun Ang Centre for Sustainable Process Technology (CESPRO), Faculty of Engineering and Built Environment, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM), Bangi, Selangor, Malaysia. Wei Lun Ang is a young Senior Lecturer in Integrated and Hybrid Membrane Water Treatment Technology at the Centre for Sustainable Process Technology (CESPRO), Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia. He received his PhD from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia in the area of integrated membrane desalination process, a collaboration project between University Kebangsaan Malaysia with Qatar University and Swansea University. His research interests lie in the field of membrane technology and its integration with other water and wastewater treatment technologies, sustainable resources reclamation and reuse from wastes as well as nanotechnology. He actively involved in several international and national level of research collaboration projects related to the application of membrane technology and nanotechnology in water and wastewater treatment and reclamation. Currently, he is one of the lead researchers for 2 international grants offered by The Royal Society, UK and Qatar National Research Fund. He had delivered a talk on his research sharing at the University of Technology, Sydney and being a visited scholar to Swansea University for research progress discussion. He has published 19 journal papers with citation exceeding 700 and h-index of 8. Wei Lun Ang has also authored 2 book chapters on the application of various treatment technologies for water and wastewater reclamation. He contributes to the research community by actively reviewing the manuscripts in several top-ranked journals.
