Research Areas

Focused on multiphase catalysis, including nanomaterials, porous materials, precious metal catalysis, porous solid acid catalysis, as well as selective catalytic hydrogenation and oxidation. My expertise extends to continuous and miniaturized chemical processes, particularly in the design and regulation of porous catalytic materials, catalytic technologies for metal-supported materials, energy-saving and eco-friendly applications in traditional synthesis processes, and the development of green technologies.

Achievements and Projects

I have led multiple projects, including General and Youth Programs of the National Natural Science Foundation of China and enterprise-commissioned development projects, as well as participated in several National Key Basic Research Programs. My research outcomes have been industrialized by several companies and have been presented in invited talks at national and international academic and industrial conferences, such as the National Catalysis Academic Conference of the Chinese Chemical Society.

Key achievements include:

• Winning the First Prize of the National Ministry of Education Technological Invention Award for green catalytic hydrogenation processes.

• Earning the Second Prize of Zhejiang Provincial Science and Technology Progress Award and the Second Prize of the China Chemical Society Science and Technology Progress Award for contributions to the continuous and miniaturized chemical processes.

• Recognition with the Outstanding Youth Award at the 7th Global Chinese Chemical Engineers Symposium, a Bronze Award in the National Entrepreneurship Competition, the Second Prize for Hangzhou Entrepreneurship Projects, and the Zhejiang Provincial Youth Talent Award.

Industrial Impact

The research outcomes on green catalytic hydrogenation and integrated continuous and miniaturized chemical processes have been successfully commercialized, achieving patent technology transfer valued at 10.7 million RMB (6.45 million RMB received by the University). With robust financial support for research, one product has already been industrialized, laying a solid foundation for the development of follow-up products.

Collaboration Opportunities

We sincerely welcome collaboration with international research groups in advancing scientific exploration and innovation. Our team is highly experienced in catalysis research, supported by state-of-the-art facilities and a multidisciplinary approach. We are particularly interested in joint research initiatives and the co-application for international cooperation projects.
