As a professor with over 30 years' scholarly research, teaching, and supervision experiences, Mika Sillanpää has engaged in synergistic collaboration with over 200 research partners from the world’s leading laboratories in six continents. He is interested in applying cutting-edge, fundamental and applied research at the interface of environmental, chemical and physical sciences and engineering to develop low cost, beneficial and practical solutions to various water problems faced by our society worldwide. Mika Sillanpää’s research work centers on chemical treatment in environmental engineering and environmental monitoring and analysis. More specifically, he has worked extensively with adsorption, photocatalysis, electrochemical treatment, membrane biological processes and advanced oxidation processes as well chromatographic methods, electrochemical sensor development and real-time monitoring. The recent research focus has been on the resource recovery from waste streams. Sillanpää received his M.Sc. (Eng.) and D. Sc. (Eng.) degrees from the Aalto University where he also completed an MBA degree in 2013. He completed his Master studies in the field of Chemical Engineering at the Department of Chemical Engineering at the Helsinki University of Technology (Finland) within 2.7 years, creating a new record in the history of the Department of the University. This achievement facilitated him to be the youngest Ph.D. holder (27 years old) in the same Department of the University in 1997. This was the starting point for him to embark on a progressive academic career in the field of environmental engineering through publications in peer-reviewed journals, leading to his nomination as the youngest holding an academic rank of a professorship in Finland at the time. Since 2000, he has been a full professor/adjunct professor at the University of Oulu, the University of Eastern Finland, the LUT University, Aarhus University, the University of Johannesburg and Xi’an University of Architecture and Technology. Mika Sillanpää has taught courses to undergraduates and doctoral students in the fields of chemistry, chemical engineering and environmental technology. He has contributed to the curriculum development in various universities. He has presented his research at many of the leading academic institutions and is a regular speaker at professional conferences around the world. He has acted as a consultant in around ten companies ranging from global giants, such as Nokia, to SMEs. Also, he has served as a board member of numerous companies and has had R&D collaborating with over 80 companies in all sizes. He has successfully managed as a principal investigator substantial funding of over 35 million euros in highly competitive calls for research funding such as the EU Framework Programmes and Structural Funds, Business Finland, the Academy of Finland, Foundations and industrial partners. Also, he has been invited as an external examiner and opponent of several adjunct professorships and doctoral degrees and participated in the evaluation of research proposals in over 10 countries. He has supervised over 60 PhDs and been a reviewer in over 250 academic journals, many of which are top-ranked in their fields. Mika Sillanpää has published more than 1400 articles in peer-reviewed international journals, including Chemical Society Reviews, Progress in Materials Science, Advanced Materials, Environmental Science & Technology, Water Research, ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces, Applied Catalysis B: Environmental, Green Chemistry, Journal of Catalysis, Journal of Cleaner Production, Carbon, Journal of Hazardous Materials, Journal of Chromatography A, Environment International, Journal of Hazardous Materials, Bioresource Technology, Renewable Energy, Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, Sustainable Energy & Fuels, Advances in Colloid and Interface Science, Electrochemistry Communications, Biosensors & Bioelectronics, Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, Analytical Chemistry, Journal of Physical Chemistry C, Mass Spectrometry Reviews and Critical Reviews in Environmental Science & Technology, Desalination, Environmental Science: Nano, Separation and Purification Reviews, Environmental. Pollution, Electrochimica Acta, Chemical Engineering Journal, Colloid Surfaces B - Biointerfaces, Langmuir, Trac-Trends in Analytical Chemistry, Ultrasonics Sonochemistry and Coordination Chemistry Reviews. He has served on the editorial boards of several scholarly publications, such as Editor in Inorganic Chemistry Letters (Elsevier) and Field Chief Editor in Frontiers in Environmental Chemistry. Having an h-index of 156, his publications have been cited over 1118 000 times (Google Scholar). Two of his publications are among 0.5% top-cited publications in the history of the corresponding journal (journals Chemosphere and Science of the Total Environment). Many of his scientific articles have been listed as hottest papers of the journal or even the entire research field (chemical engineering and environmental science). Mika Sillanpää has received numerous awards for research and innovation. For example, he is the first Laureate of Scientific Committee on the Problems of the Environment (SCOPE)’s Young Investigator Award, which was delivered at the UNESCO Conference in Shanghai 2010 for his “significant contributions, outstanding achievements and research leadership in Environmental Technological Innovations to address present water pollution problems worldwide, especially with regard to wastewater treatment and reuse”. In 2011, he was invited to act as a Principal Scientific Reviewer in the GEO-5 report of the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP). In 2012, he received Tapani Järvinen Environmental Technology Award and Publication Award of the Lappeenranta University of Technology. In 2014, he received the Science Award of the Lappeenranta University of Technology and Pro Mikkeli Award. In 2017 and 2018, he was listed as a Highly Cited Researcher by Thomson Reuters. In 2018, he was invited as a Member of the Finnish Academy of Sciences and Letters and Technology Academy of Finland. He also received Literature award from the Water Association of Finland in 2018. In 2019, 2020 and 2021, he was listed as a Highly Cited Researcher by Thomson Reuters in two different disciplines, among approximately 200 other top researchers (covering all fields of science). In 2021, he was listed as World’s Top 2% Scientist by Stanford University. In 2022, he has been awarded the Provincial Innovative Talent of Zhejiang Province, China. In 2023, he has been awarded prestigious Chair Professor of "Changjiang (Yangtze River) Scholar" of China. The Changjiang (Yangtze River) Scholar award, is the highest academic award issued to an individual in higher education by the Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China. Although the award is rarely granted to foreign scientists, a few renowned international scholars are chosen each year. These internationally renowned scholars include Nobel Prize Laureates and members of US National Academy of Engineering. They are typically honored with a guest or visiting professorship at a major university, with the prestigious title of Changjiang Scholar.
