The Department of Materials Science and Engineering invites students, researchers, academics, and industry professionals to an engaging seminar with Prof. Yusuf M. Isa, whose work spans catalysis, biofuels, and sustainable energy systems.

This seminar explores how agricultural residues can be transformed into valuable resources through the bio-circular refinery concept, combining engineering principles with practical methods for assessing the technical, economic, and sustainability potential of biomass resources.

Whether your interests lie in materials, chemical engineering, energy, or sustainability, this session offers fresh perspectives on engineering solutions that address some of Africa's most pressing resource and environmental challenges.

Join us on 10 August 2026 at the SES Conference Room. Come prepared to learn, question, and contribute to the future of sustainable engineering.
