Bio:

Dr. Shishir P. S. Chundawat received his bachelor's degree (B.Tech. with Distinction) in chemical technology from the Institute of Chemical Technology (ICT, formerly known as UDCT or University Department of Chemical Technology) at Mumbai (Maharashtra, India) in 2004. He received his Ph.D. in chemical engineering from Michigan State University (East Lansing, Michigan, USA) under the supervision of Professor Bruce Dale in 2009. Dr. Chundawat's doctoral work provided key insights into the mechanisms of thermochemical pretreatments that facilitate enzymatic saccharification of lignocellulosic biomass. This research catalyzed the scale-up of the Ammonia Fiber Expansion (AFEX) process for animal feed and cellulosic biofuel production.
