Attracting talents from all over the world to build an academic highland in the bay area. On March 22, the School of Environment and Energy successfully held the 2022 Sub-forum of the School of Environmental and Energy of Overseas Excellent Youth Forum of South China University of Technology online. Five outstanding overseas scholars from Denmark, Turkey, the United States, Hong Kong and other regions were invited as speakers. More than 200 college leaders, experts from academic committees and teaching steering committees, as well as scholars, postdoctors and postgraduates at home and abroad participated in the cloud academic conference.

Sub-forum of the School of Environmental and Energy of Overseas Excellent Youth Forum

Scholars focused on several different topics  to deliver excellent reports, such as the deepening optimization and resource utilization of biological water treatment technology based on the functional regulation of microbial community, the impact of catastrophic events on water quality and its treatment capacity, the source research of surface water pollutants in the Pearl River Basin based on DOM big data analysis, the solution of relaxation time distribution function corresponding to electrochemical impedance spectrum based on probability model, the study of microbial mercury methylation using gene description and bioinformatics, the degradation of methylmercury and the biofuel conversion of methane.

The Sub-forum of School of Environmental and Energy of Overseas Excellent Youth Forum of South China University of Technology aims to invite talents with different academic backgrounds to discuss and exchange views around the international scientific frontier, hot research fields and technical issues of industries. Via this platform, we can enlighten each other, broaden our horizons, enhance academic exchanges and cooperation and promote common development.

Attached: Brief introduction of the speakers

1. Reporter: Su Qingxian

Dr. Su Qingxian obtained Ph.D. degree in Environmental Engineering from Danish Technical University in 2019, and successively engaged in post doctoral research at the National University of Singapore and Danish Technical University. Dr. Su has been engaged in the theoretical and application research of newly efficient biological water treatment technology for a long time, and has achieved a series of research results with strong originality and innovation. In the recent five years, Dr. Su has published numerous high-level academic papers on authoritative journals in the field of environment as the first and corresponding author, including 2 on Environmental Science & technology, 2 on Water Research, 1 on Environmental Microbiology and 1 on Chemical Engineering Journal. Dr. Su has delivered oral academic reports at IWA water treatment related international conferences for many times, and served as reviewer of water research and other journals. Dr. Su has also participated in a number of national projects in Denmark and Singapore and has a broad foundation for international cooperation.

2. Reporter: Habibullah Uzun

Habibullah Uzun received his Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering from Clemson University (US) in 2016. His primary research interest is the application of physicochemical processes (i.e., chemical oxidation, carbon adsorption, and separation) in drinking water treatment. He has dedicated his research career to studying drinking water quality, the occurrence of disinfection by-product (DBP) precursors in source water, and their control during water treatment. Recent changes in weather behavior, catastrophic incidences (i.e., drought, hot weather, wildfires, flooding), and increased algal and anthropogenic activities in source waters showed that new approaches in terms of watershed management and water treatment are required. Thus, his research interest evolved on these new emerging topics and their potential effects on safe drinking water supply. He is currently studying the occurrence of micropollutants (i.e., MIB and Geosmin, per-, and polyfluoroalkyl substances [PFAS]) and heavy metals in water sources and controlling/removing them with different physicochemical applications. In addition, he is doing research on the production of activated carbon from the waste feedstock and the regeneration of exhausted GACs.

3. Reporter: Chen Huan

Dr. Chen Huan received Ph.D. degree in Civil Engineering from the University of Tennessee in 2017 and is now a research assistant professor at the School of Environmental Engineering and Earth Sciences of Clemson University. Dr. Chen has long been committed to the characteristic analysis of natural dissolved organic matter (DOM) and the research on the migration and transformation of new pollutants (such as heavy metals, antibiotics, perfluorinated and polyfluoroalkyl substances). In the past five years, he has led or co-led over 8 scientific research projects, including 3 projects funded by the National Institute of Food and Agriculture with a total of 1.75 million US dollars on agricultural reuse of reclaimed water; published 33 SCI papers, including 21 SCI papers as the first or corresponding author (including equivalent contributions), 5 papers on Water Research (top journal in the field of water resources) and 2 cover papers on ACS Earth & Space chemistry. Dr. Chen has been a reviewer of more than 20 international journals such as Environmental Science & Technology, Journal of Cleaner Production and Journal of Hazardous Materials for a long time, and served as the project review expert of the Department of Earth Sciences of the Natural Science Foundation of the United States.

4. Reporter: Yu Riqing

Dr. Yu Riqing received Ph.D. degree in Environmental Science from Rutgers University in 2011 and received postdoctoral training in Georgia Tech and the University of Delaware respectively. Now Dr. Yu is the head and associate professor of the Department of Biology at the University of Texas Taylor. Dr. Yu has long been engaged in environmental microbial metal mercury conversion, methyl mercury degradation and mercury pollution control; biodegradation and biosynthesis of stilbenes, such as resveratrol and pterostilbene; generation, control and energy conversion of greenhouse gas methane (methane is converted into bioenergy butanol, which can be used as biomass gasoline); functional gene research, microbial sequencing and bioinformatics research; study on aquatic (coastal) ecotoxicology such as biological toxicity accumulation and environmental fate of metal and organic pollutants. Dr. Yu has published more than 60 academic papers and 2 book chapters in the field of environment at home and abroad, including 4 papers published on ES&T; 4 papers published on ISME journal and AEM, 1 under review by Science, 14 SCI and 20 EI index articles. Google Scholar I10 index 37 and h-index 21.

5. Reporter: Liu Jiapeng

Dr. Liu Jiapeng received Ph.D. degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in 2020, and then conducted a year of post doctoral research at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. He is now a postdoctoral researcher of the Hong Kong Productivity Council. Dr. Liu has long been engaged in the calculation and simulation of materials in new energy devices. He mainly uses tools such as density functional theory, molecular dynamics, finite element analysis and machine learning to understand the micro to macro multi-scale physical and chemical phenomena in materials, so as to design high-performance materials and devices. A series of outstanding innovative achievements have been made in using the first principle to deeply understand lithium-ion batteries and solid oxide fuel cells. For the analysis of relaxation time distribution of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, Dr. Liu developed many different models. So far, 39 papers have been published in SCI journals, including 17 papers of the first author, which have been published in JCR Q1 journals such as Nature Communications, Advanced Energy Materials, Advanced Functional Materials, Journal of Power Source and so on. Dr. Liu is also a guest associate editor of Frontiers in Energy Research.
