Biography

Suddhasatwa Basu (born 5 January 1963) completed B.Tech from University of Calcutta in 1987 and Ph.D. from Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore in 1993 in Chemical Engineering. Then he worked as Postdoctoral Research Fellow & Visiting Faculty in Dept. of Chemical & Material Engineering at University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada (1994 –1997). He worked on Oil Sands extraction technology at the University of Alberta and closely involved in various projects. After completion of the research, he joined IIT Delhi, New Delhi as Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering in 1998 and presently he is Professor (Higher Academic Grade), IIT Delhi, whereas worked as Head of the Chemical Engineering Department from 2012 to 2015 and Associate Dean of R&D, IIT Delhi from 2016 to 2017. Currently he is the Director of Council of Scientific Industrial Research - Institute  of Minerals  and  Materials Technology (CSIR-IMMT) since 2018 (on lien from IIT Delhi) with Outstanding Professor, Faculty of Engineering Sciences, AcSIR and Adjunct Professor (since 2019)   in the Department of Chemical Engineering at Institute of Chemical Technology, Mumbai.

He was visiting Professor at the University of Alberta, Canada in 2000 and 2002, University of Newcastle, Australia 2005, University Karlsruhe (KIT), Germany 2006 and University of Newcastle upon Tyne, UK 2008 and 2010. His broad research interests are in the area of Interfacial and Electrochemical Engineering and their application in hydrogen energy and fuel cell technology. He has addressed the issues coming out of the nexus between energy and the environment. His works on development of direct alcohol and glucose PEM and AEM Fuel Cells, PEMFC diagnostics, solid oxide fuel cells, as the source of renewable energy sources and removal ionic dyes from water by reverse micelles selectively, reuse of dye and solvent, CO2 conversion to chemical fuels and dye mineralization by photocatalysis, as environmentally benign technologies. He has published more than 180 articles in high impact factor journals, 28 conferences, and 8 patents. He is the recipient of many awards, visiting fellow of Royal Society, UK, DAAD fellow, UKIERI[5] award, Distinguish Alumni Award from Chemical Engineering Department, Calcutta University, FITT[2] award for best thesis at IIT Delhi.
