Niall J. English (born March 29th, 1979) is an Irish inventor, industrialist, researcher,[1] and chartered chemical engineer. He is the founding director of BioSimulytics and AquaB.[2][3]
Biography
[edit]Niall J. English (born March 29th, 1979) was born in Dublin, Ireland, to Michael and Catherine English. He grew up in Dublin and Brussels. He speaks Irish and French. [2][3]
In 2000, he got a honors degree in Chemical Engineering from the University College Dublin,[2] and he completed his Ph.D. in 2003. [3]
In January 2007, he was hired as a lecturer at the School of Chemical and Bioprocess Engineering, and was promoted to senior lecturer in 2014. In 2017, he became a professor at the same school.[3][4]
He is a co-founder and director of BioSimulytics[5] and Aqua-B.[3][4] In 2020, Aqua B won the Institution of Chemical Engineers' (IChemE) Global Award in Water Award category.[6]
In 2023, he also tried to block the University College Dublin from granting commercialization license to his rival companies, which was denied by the Commercial Court.[7][8]
