Biography

Ravi Pandiselvam, PhD, is a Scientist in the Chemical & Biochemical Processing Division at the ICAR-Central Institute for Research on Cotton Technology, Maharashtra, India. He was previously a scientist (agricultural process engineering) at the ICAR–Central Plantation Crops Research Institute, Kasaragod, India. He has contributed to the design and development of processing machines for tender coconut and has also developed/co-developed many value-added food products (e.g., Kalpa Krunch, frozen coconut delicacy, and matured coconut water-based beverages). Dr. Pandiselvam has published many journal papers, book chapters, and five books. He is the Associate Editor of Measurement: Food and Frontiers in Nutrition and has been a guest editor for several other journals. He has received several awards for his work.

Anjineyulu Kothakota, PhD, is a Scientist at the CSIR-National Institute for Interdisciplinary Science and Technology, Thiruvananthapuram, India. He has a well-proven track record of achievements in the field of postharvest technologies and agri-waste management, especially in the area of development of cost-effective biodegradable tableware utilizing agro-residues to replace single-use plastics, utilizing a wide range of agro-residues, such as those from rice and wheat bran, rice husk, rice straw, corn, fiber-rich plant parts, etc. The technology for the production of such biodegradable products has been so far transferred to 16 companies/start-ups, and even multinational companies like ITC and Nestle have shown interest in taking up the technology. He has published many journal papers and has received several awards for his work.
