Biography

Adel Al-Gheethi (PhD) is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Water and Environmental Engineering, Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia (UTHM) in Batu Pahat, Johor, Malaysia. He has been working with the UTHM since 2015. He has involved as a lecturer and laboratories manager at the Faculty of Medical Science, Yemeni-Jordanian University and Higher Institute of Health Sciences, in Sana'a, Yemen, for 4 years. He graduated with a Bachelor and Master of Applied Microbiology from Taiz University, Yemen in 2008. He obtained a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Environmental Technology with his thesis on enzymatic degradation of pharmaceutical residues in secondary effluents, at Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM), Penang, Malaysia in 2014 (fellowship TWAS-USM). His current project focus on application of bacteria, microalgae and fungi for water, wastewater, greywater and clinical wastes treatment as well as in sequestration of CO2 by bio-concrete. Besides, his research focused on recycle of greywater as a production medium for enzymes and microalgae biomass as fish feeds. His research interests also include microbiology of wastewater, phycoremediation, pharmaceutical waste, biosorption, biodegradation, and bio-nanotechnology. He has authored and co-authored 150 articles in international peer-reviewed journals (WOS, Scopus, Google Scholar) with H index 11 in Scopus and Publons. He has authored and co-authored two Book published in Springer (2019, 2020), Several chapters in volume books. He has contributed to three teaching modules on environmental engineering. He is a reviewer for 30 international indexed journals (Scopus and WOS). He a warded top reviewers in Environment and Ecology as well as Cross-Field in September 2019. He also a Publons Academy graduator and currently a mentor
