Dr. Mohamad Midani is Assistant Professor at the Materials Engineering Department, German University Cairo, and Adjunct Assistant Professor at Wilson College of Textiles, North Carolina State University. He is also Managing Partner of inTEXive consulting and Secretary General of the International Association of Palm Byproducts. Dr. Midani has long experience in the textile industry, with a focus on technical textiles and composites, with an ongoing research collaboration and consulting to the industry. His research mostly focuses on natural fibers and their composites, and he is the Co-Inventor of the long textile fibers from date palm byproducts (PalmFil). He is also Co-Founder of the World Conference on Palm Byproducts and their Applications (ByPalma). He published more than 30 articles in international journals and conferences in addition to three books. Dr. Midani is Reviewer of several international journals from different publishers. He teaches undergraduate and graduate courses on Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composites as well as New Product development and Innovation Management. In 2022, Dr. Midani received the distinguished young alumni award from Wilson College of Textiles NC State University in recognition for his impact in the textile field. Dr. Midani has his B.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering from Ain Shams University (2006), M.T. in Textiles & Apparel Technology and Management (2012), and Ph.D. in Fiber and Polymer Science from the College of Textiles NC State University (2016). Dr. Midani is certified New Product Development Professional (NPDP) and Member of the Product Development and Management Association (PDMA) and Co-Founder and Member of the board of PDMA Egypt chapter.
Dr. Ramzi Khiari is Associate Professor at Institut Supérieur des études Technologiques de Ksar-Hellal (Monastir, Tunisia) in the department of Textile Engineering and Research and Development Specialist at Laboratory of Pulp and Paper Science and Graphic Arts LGP2 in Grenoble Institute of Technology, University of Grenoble. Dr. Ramzi has an H-index of 26 and co-authored more than 80 publications receiving 2353 citations. His research interests focus on the valorizationof biomass at multi-scale levels, namely: fibers, nanocellulose, lignin, hemicelluloses, and their use as potential raw material in several industrial applications (textile, papermaking, polymeric materials, composites, and nanocomposites). A particular focus is given for vegetal biomass from annual plants and particularly agricultural residues and industrial wastes.
