Academic achievements
I am a Professor of Chemical Engineering at Nanjing Tech University. I haveheld over 20 projects, including the National Key R&D Program, the National Natural Science Foundation of China, and the China-Australia International Cooperation Project. I have published over 150 journal papers, of which more than 110 were indexed by SCI in the highly recognized journals such asAIChE J., Ind. & Eng. Chem. Res., J. Membr. Sci., J. Mater. Chem A, andACS Appl. Mater. Inter. Iam the named inventor of more than 30 Chinese patents and 3 US patents. I have also been frequently invited to give guest lecturesat many important academic conferences including International Membrane and Membrane Process Conference, National Membrane and Membrane Process Report Conference. Among the contribution to China’s competitiveness is the development of air cleaning membrane technology which have been commercialized and applied in the fields of industrial flue gas treatment and household air cleaning.
