Introduction

I am a graduate of the National University of Singapore. In 2020, I was honored with the title of Tianjin Special-Appointed Professor and joined the Department of Chemical Engineering at Tiangong University. Currently, I am leading four projects, and have published 70 papers and five patents, with a H-index of 32. In 2020, I served as a guest editor for Reaction Chemistry & Engineering.

Research areas
