Professor Ir Dr Shaliza Ibrahim has more than 30 years of experience in multiphase mixing in stirred tank reactors, particularly on solidliquid suspensions, which has critical applications in food, pharmaceutical and oil & gas industries, observation of wall-slip phenomenon, and fine sediments in flood mitigation, and initiated particle image velocimetry (PIV) to add new perspectives to the study. She is the academic collaborator for SATAKE Chemical Equipment MFG. LTD. (Japan). Apart from this, she was the Malaysian advisor along with Professor Kohei Ogawa, Former VicePresident of Tokyo Institute of Technology, for the Malaysia Japan Process Engineering Forum and Business Matching Event 2018, which convened more than 100 participants in process engineering for technology sharing and business matching discussions. She received national and international research grants amounting to over RM1 million. Her team effort has generated outcomes beyond academia with significant reach to local communities, namely batik producers, aquaculture farmers, and palm oil industry stakeholders. She is recognised internationally and contributes to scientific committees for the International Symposium on Mixing in Industrial Processes (ISMIP) and Asian Conference on Mixing (ACOM). Her contribution to science encompasses teaching and learning, research, consultancy, research translation and administration. She has taught hundreds of undergraduate and postgraduate students on Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics, Reactor Design and Unit Operations for Biological Systems, Mass and Energy Balance (Chemical Process Principles), Chemistry for Environmental Engineering, Wastewater Treatment, Anaerobic Technologies, and Greening Malaysian Industries. She has supervised final year projects and postgraduate theses in Mixing and Hydrodynamics, Environmental Engineering and Biotechnology. She has published 150 papers in WoSindexed journals with more than 2,000 citations with an H-index of 25. She has been actively involved with ASM as a member of the Malaysian Open Science Platform (MOSP) Alliance, contributing to the Capacity Building Working Group. She was also a Working Group Member for Societal Impact Pillar for Science Outlook 2020.
