About the Authors

Angelo Basile is a Full Professor and a leading authority in membrane science and technology. Since 2014, he has served as Full Professor in Systems, Methods and Technologies of Chemical Engineering Processes at CNR-ITM in Rende, Italy. His work covers hydrogen purification and production using membrane reactors, CO₂ capture, process intensification, and the treatment of industrial effluents with advanced membrane operations. Basile has edited many scientific books and authored numerous book chapters, bridging complex research with clear knowledge for engineers and scientists. Motivated by the role of AI/ML in accelerating membrane process design and automation, he supports integrating data-driven methods for smart plants and reaction–separation optimisation.

Kamran Ghasemzadeh is currently working as a senior research associate at the chemical engineering department, University of Manchester, UK since August 2022. At the same time, he has served as an associate professor in the chemical engineering department at Urmia University of Technology, Iran, wherein he developed research on membranes/membrane reactors for many processes.

Kamran Ghasemzadeh’s h-index = 21, with 126 document results in a total of 1135 citations in the areas: Energy, Chemical Engineering, Environmental Science, and membrane technologies, (www.scopus.com – March 30/2023). He has more than 50 papers published in national/international congresses; and is a reviewer for 70 int. journals, an editor/author of more than 10 scientific books, and 45 chapters on int. books on membrane science and technology. Today Ghasemzadeh is collaborating with the Dept. of chem. Eng. at the University of Manchester (UK) on the valorisation of biomass by-products. He participated in various national and international projects on membrane reactors and membrane science. In the last years, he was the supervisor/co-supervisor of more than 38 Thesis for Master and Ph.D. students. Ghasemzadeh served as Director of the UUT research center during the period Sep. 2018 – April 2022.
