Dmitriy V Pruttskov is a professor at Zaporizhzhia National University, Ukraine. He graduated from Zaporizhzhia Industrial Academy in 1978 and obtained his diploma in metallurgical engineering. After that, he worked at All-Union Research and Design Institute of Titanium (Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine) where he held the positions of engineer, junior, senior researcher, and head of the laboratory of electrometallurgical processes. He received his degree of PhD (Kandidate) in 1984 from the Institute of General and Inorganic Chemistry (IGICH) of the National Academy of Science of Ukraine, and his DSc in 1995 from the Institute of High-Temperature Electrochemistry of Russian Acad Sci (Ekaterinburg, Russia) for the works in the field of electrochemistry of cryolite melts. His research interests are focused on the physical chemistry and technology of magnesium, aluminum, silicon, titanium, and their alloys, as well as refractory inorganic compounds. The results of his research activities were published in 150 scientific papers. Also, he is a co-author of 30 inventions, most of which are used in the metallurgical industry.

Aleksandr A. Andriiko had been the head Chair of General and Inorganic Chemistry of the National Technical University of Ukraine "Kyiv Polytechnic Institute" (NTUU "KPI") since 2003 till 2021. After retirement from this position, he remains a professor of this chair (part-time). He obtained his diploma in Chemical Engineering in 1974 and worked in the Institute of General and Inorganic Chemistry (IGICH) of the National Academy of Science of Ukraine since then and till 2003. He received his degrees of PhD (Kandidate) in 1981 and DSc in 1993 from IGICH for the works in the field of electrochemistry of molten fluorides.
