Biography

Mihret Dananto Ulsido (PhD, Associate Professor) is a senior researcher, instructor and Chief Editor of the Ethiopian Journal of Engineering and Technology (EJET) at the Universities of Hawassa, Institute of Technology. He is also the Biophysical Cluster Coordinator of the Center for Ethiopian Rift Valley Studies (CERVaS). He is the author of three books and more than 47 articles. His current research looks at valorization (the transformation of waste into energy) in the developing countries context. Pursuing this research agenda he has recently been visiting different countries in Africa and worldwide. He wrote his Ph.D. on the valorization of coffee husk solid waste. He did his MSc and Ph.D in China, Belgium, and Germany in the area of Resources Engineering. Having lived on both sides of the Mediterranean helped him learn several languages among which English, Flemish, German, French, and Mandarin, which link directly to his research interests in the areas of Valorization as an option for global sustainable resources utilization. In pursuing these interests, Mihret has learned and applied both qualitative and quantitative methodologies: combining case study analysis with regression analysis and fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis and application of Python in resources optimization.
