O autorze

Shahjadi Hisan Farjana completed her PhD in 2019 in life cycle assessment and techno-economic analysis of mining industries, in respect of the solar industrial process heating system integration potential. Her research interests include sustainable mining, life cycle assessment, sustainability, circular economy, renewable energy integration into industries, metal production from waste. Farjana has published 22 peer-reviewed journal articles, 10 peer-reviewed conference proceedings, and 1 book chapter with Springer-Nature. She is a reviewer of the Journal of Cleaner Production, Science of the Total Environment, and Wiley Energy Technologies journal. Dr. M A Parvez Mahmud is a postdoctoral research associate at the School of Engineering, Macquarie University. He received his PhD in Engineering from Macquarie University. He obtained a Master of Engineering (M.E.) degree in Nano-Mechatronics from University of Science and Technology (UST), South Korea and a Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from Khulna University of Engineering and Technology (KUET), Bangladesh. He worked at World University of Bangladesh (WUB) as a 'Lecturer' for more than 2 years and at the Korea Institute of Machinery and Materials (KIMM) as a 'Researcher' for about 3 years. His research interest includes low-carbon energy productions, towards the development of sustainable energy systems. Dr Nazmul Huda is a senior lecturer in Mechanical Engineering at Macquarie University, Australia. Dr Huda has extensive research background both from industry and academia. His research interests include sustainable energy systems for novel engineering applications, impact analysis of primary and secondary (urban) mining, high-temperature processing, computational fluid dynamic (CFD) modelling of high-temperature systems, energy materials, solar thermal processing, extractive metallurgy of light metals, and renewable energy. He completed his bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering and then continued his postgraduate research leading to a Ph.D. at the Swinburne University of Technology, Australia
