Expertise

Separation and Purification, Membrane Separation, Clean Technology, Food and Biotechnology, Statistics and Experimental Design

Research Interests:

（1）Separation and Purification

Develop new separation technology (e.g. pervaporation, distillative freezing, and liquid membranes) for isomers and azeotropic mixtures。

（2）Preparation and characterization of membranes

Investigate physical and chemical properties for modified and prepared membranes, and study the interaction and thermodynamics properties between penetrants and membrane matrix.

（3）Clean Technology

Use pervaporation or vapor permeation to remove and recover organic vapors from gaseous and water stream; Implement clean technology for ultrapure water and air.
