Suranjoy S. Singam is an Advanced Sustainability Materials Engineer at the CNH Industrial, Canada He holds a PhD (2022) in Biological Engineering from the School of Engineering, University of Guelph, Canada. He received his Master (M.Tech) in Food Process Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, India. Before joining CNH Industrial, he worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Food Packaging and Biomaterials Lab at the Department of Food Science, University of Guelph, Canada. His research focuses on the valorization and bioprocessing of food, agricultural, and industrial biomass wastes to develop novel sustainable, advanced functional biobased materials. Primary research areas are the modification and functionalization of cellulose and lignin-based materials. Special interest in electrospinning technique to develop submicron-sized fibers for food and non-food applications, such as antimicrobial and highly efficient filtration systems, and functional bioactive carrier systems in packaging applications. He is currently working on applications of sustainable materials (e.g., natural fibers or bioplastics) to develop biodegradable/compostable product components for agricultural practices Compostable Bale Net Wrap and lightweight biocomposite machine components.
