Education

Ph.D, State Key Laboratory of Coal Combustion, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, 2014-2018.

Research Interests

Thermo-chemical processing of plastic/biomass with nano-catalyst

Hydrogen and carbon nanomaterials production from catalytic pyrolysis of waste plastics

Research highlights

Waste to Energy – H2-enrich syngas and liquid chemicals can be produced from plastic waste using pyrolysis and reforming process

Waste to Resource – Carbon nanomaterials production from high C-containing resources from catalytic thermal cracking of waste resources

Resource Utilization– carbon materials from waste plastic for several applications including waste water treatment; electrochemical materials
