Nikhil Kumar is a postdoctoral researcher at Sandia National Laboratories who is currently working in the Predictive Deconstruction group at the Department of Energy-funded Joint BioEnergy Institute (JBEI). Dr. Kumar received his Ph.D. in 2023 from the Department of Chemical Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati, India. Dr. Kumar's research is primarily focused on the development of novel green solvents for aromatic compound extraction and the understanding the liquid structure of deep eutectic solvents using molecular dynamics, quantum chemistry, and COSMO-RS model simulations. Dr. Kumar's research interests also include leveraging both machine learning and first-principles physics-based methods to make improved predictions for solvents for enhanced biomass conversion, utilization of CO2 for the circular economy, and thermodynamic property predictions using various machine learning and artificial intelligence models. Dr. Kumar has co-authored a book, published more than ten research articles in leading academic journals, and contributed to over ten conferences.

Tamal Banerjee is currently a Professor at the Department of Chemical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati. He served as Supplemental Faculty in the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at the University of Delaware, USA, from 2011-2012. He also held the position of University Associate at Curtin University, Perth, Australia from 2020-2024. Throughout his career, Dr. Banerjee has authored three books (published by CRC and Elsevier) and around 200 academic publications. His research group has contributed around 900 data points related to thermodynamic properties of ionic liquid (IL) and deep eutectic solvent (DES) mixtures, now available in the NIST database. He has supervised 20 doctoral students, most of whom focus on applications of green solvents in energy and environmental domains. Dr. Banerjee received the INDO-US Fellowship in 2011 in Engineering Sciences. He is currently a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry, the Indian Institute of Chemical Engineers, and the Indian Chemical Society. He serves on the editorial boards of Fluid Phase Equilibria and the Journal of Solution Chemistry, and is the Associate Editor of Thermal Advances. His research uses both quantum chemistry and molecular dynamics to predict thermodynamic and transport properties of ILs and DESs. His expertise includes the COnductor like Screening MOdel (COSMO) based methods and molecular modelling techniques, encompassing both classical molecular dynamics and reactive force field simulations (ReaxFF). His application areas span renewable energy sources (such as alcohols) and non-renewable energy sources (such as coal and chemical hydrides).
