Author Information

Abbas Kazmi is a specialist in green chemistry and on biorefineries. After completing a BSc in Chemistry from the University of Leeds and an MSc in Analytical Chemistry from the University of Huddersfield, he began his doctoral research on environmentally-friendly coatings based on the Sol-Gel process using low VOC's. After successfully completing his PhD at the University of Manchester, he moved on to work as a Project Officer for the internationally renowned Green Chemistry Centre of Excellence at the University of York. There he managed a major European project on integrated oil-crop biorefineries, involving a consortium of 23 partners in 10 EU countries. He also managed the European project, STAR-COLIBRI (Strategic Targets for 2020 Collaboration Initiative on Biorefineries) which involved many influential European technology platforms. He was then promoted to Renewable Materials Technology Platform Manager where he managed several multidisciplinary biorefinery demonstration projects. These involved research into bio-based alternatives to PVC, furniture boards and adhesives.
