"This book offers a comprehensive overview of microwave energy in the processing of biomaterials, highlighting its advantages over conventional methods such as rapid and uniform heating, energy efficiency, enhanced material properties, and sustainability. Covering a broad spectrum of applications, it introduces microwave-assisted sintering, casting, curing, extrusion, and drug delivery, with insights into their role in advancing biomedical technologies.
The chapters explore cutting-edge developments including additive manufacturing combined with microwave sintering for patient-specific implants, microwave casting of titanium alloys for dental applications, polymer-based scaffolds for regenerative medicine, and hybrid composites with superior wear resistance. Emerging applications such as microwave-assisted drug delivery, nanocarrier synthesis, and energy-efficient coatings are also discussed.
With contributions from leading experts, this book highlights current challenges, opportunities, and future directions in microwave-assisted processing of biomaterials. It serves as a valuable reference for researchers, academicians, and professionals in biomedical engineering, biomaterials, materials science, and medical device development, offering insights into sustainable innovations shaping next-generation healthcare."

About the Author
Dr. Radha Raman Mishra is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Birla Institute of Technology and Science (BITS) Pilani, Pilani Campus, India. He is also serving as Associate Head, Center for Research Excellence in National Security (CRENS), BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus. He earned his PhD from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Roorkee, Roorkee, for his novel contribution to the "Microwave Casting Technique". His research group has developed a novel additive manufacturing process, "Microwave-assisted Direct Ink Writing Technique" at BITS Pilani. Dr. Mishra's research group is working at the intersection of different technologies, such as additive manufacturing, robotics, machine learning, product design, and microwave material processing techniques. He has significantly contributed to the domain of microwave energy-based techniques, including microwave casting, microwave joining, microwave sintering, microwave drilling, microwave-based additive technique and microwave plasma-based CVD process.
Dr. Sunny Zafar serves as an Associate Professor in the School of Mechanical and Materials Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology Mandi, with over a decade of distinguished experience in research and academia. He has been instrumental in positioning IIT Mandi as a leader in translational research on microwave-assisted manufacturing and recycling of composites, through collaborative projects with ISRO, DRDO, SERB, and leading industrial partners. His pioneering contributions to the development of innovative microwave-based manufacturing processes—integrating advanced materials research—have earned international recognition.
Dr. Zafar has authored more than 100 peer-reviewed international journal articles and delivered over 50 invited lectures. He has developed specialized MOOCs in turbine manufacturing, benefiting researchers globally. With an h-index of 28, over 2,700+ citations, and more than seven patents, several of which have been granted, he continues to advance high-impact translational research. As a reviewer for prestigious publishers including Elsevier, Wiley, and Springer, he actively contributes to the scholarly community. At IIT Mandi, he has secured several sponsored research fundings, driving innovation and expanding the frontiers of sustainable manufacturing research. He has also organized more than 10 workshops and conferences, training and benefiting over 500+ participants till date.
