Mohamed Mahmoud is a Researcher at the National Research Centre (Egypt). He earned a B.S. and M.Sc. degree in Chemistry from Cairo University, respectively, where he graduated with within the top 5% of 1200 students. He earned his PhD in Environmental Engineering from Arizona State University in 2016, where he worked in a world-renowned research centre on biofuel production from waste streams. Dr Mahmoud is a long-term researcher working on water resources management, especially resources recovery (i.e., clean water, energy, and nutrients) from wastewater, and to address the sanitation issues in resource-poor, developing countries. His key research objective is to incorporate fundamental findings into process models for system design, performance prediction, and technology enhancement.
