About the Editors
Dr. Inamuddin is an assistant professor at the Department of Applied Chemistry,
Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh, India. He has extensive research experience in
multidisciplinary fields of analytical chemistry, materials chemistry, electrochemistry, renewable energy and environmental science. He has published about 177
research articles in various international scientific journals, 18 book chapters, and
115 edited books with multiple well-known publishers. His current research interests
include ion exchange materials, a sensor for heavy metal ions, biofuel cells,
supercapacitors and bending actuators.
Dr. Mohd Imran Ahamed received his Ph.D. degree on the topic “Synthesis and
characterization of inorganic-organic composite heavy metals selective cationexchangers and their analytical applications” from Aligarh Muslim University,
Aligarh, India, in 2019. He has published several research and review articles in
the journals of international recognition. He has completed his B.Sc. (Hons) in
chemistry from Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh, India, and M.Sc. (organic
chemistry) from Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar University, Agra, India. His research
works include ion-exchange chromatography, wastewater treatment and analysis,
bending actuator, and electrospinning.
Dr. Eric Lichtfouse is a biogeochemist at Aix Marseille University who has
invented carbon-13 dating, a molecular-level method to study the dynamics of
organic compounds in temporal pools of complex environmental media. He is
Chief Editor of the journal Environmental Chemistry Letters and the book series
Sustainable Agriculture Reviews and Environmental Chemistry for a Sustainable
World. He is the author of the book Scientific Writing for Impact Factor Journals,
which includes an innovative writing tool: the Micro-Article.
