Biography

Biography

I am a Senior Lecturer at the Division of Systems, Power and Energy in the James Watt School of Engineering. I joined the School as a Lecturer in December 2017. Before joining the School, I worked as a Research Fellow at NUS (National University of Singapore) Environmental Research Institute (2015 - 2017). Likewise, I served as a Postdoctoral Fellow at Nanyang Technological University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2014 and 2015, respectively. I received my Ph.D. in Thermo-fluids from Nanyang Technological University in October 2014, and my BEng from Beihang University in July 2008. I am now an editorial board member of the Journal of Hazardous Materials and Bioresource Technology, and an Associate Editor of the Korean Journal of Chemical Engineering. 

My recent articles in Science: 

Green strategies for sustainable packaging

COVID-19's unsustainable waste management 

Minimize food loss and waste to prevent crises

Paths to sustainable plastic waste recycling

Research interests

Research Interest

My current research aims to develop efficient and low-carbon energy and environmental systems based on process integration and optimisation, with a major focus on sustainable waste management and wastewater treatment. I have also had extensive research experiences on evaluating the techno-economic feasibility and environmental impacts of sustainable systems using the methods, e.g., cost-benefit analysis, life cycle assessment and multi-objective optimisation.
