Biography
Lukitawesa work as a PhD Student within the field of Resource Recovery. My research focuses on improving biogas production from organic waste such as food waste and municipal waste using anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR). He attend University of Borås since mid-August 2015 with scholarship from LPDP. My PhD study is also a part of the collaboration between Indonesian universities and municipalities with University of Borås on knowledge transfer and competence improvement on waste management that hopefully can contribute to better environment in Indonesia. Prior to this he studied Food and Agricultural Product Technology (Bachelor Degree) and Food Science and Technology (Master Degree) at Univesitas Gadjah Mada (UGM), Yogyakarta, Indonesia. My research experience includes biological pretreatment of lignocellulosic material and biogas production from lignocellulosic material in semi-continuous textile reactor.
