Progress, Challenge and Perspective of Chemical Engineering Education in China
Xuhong Qian
East China University of Science and Technology
The history of Chinese chemical engineering education (CEE) is reviewed; in particular, we analyzed the
reason why the naissance of modern engineering science didn’t occur even though the outstanding chemical
production practice was achieved in ancient China. As followed, the recent progresses of CEE in China are
outlined including the development of East China University of Science and Technology, and we show, from
several aspects, that the Chinese chemical engineering is catching up with the World including United States.
Despite of this great success, we are facing new global and domestic challenges, of which some are from the
development bottleneck of modern chemical engineering discipline and some from the Chinese national
conditions. These challengers together with the opportunities are discussed. Finally, we outlook the CCE in
new era, and hope make our own contribution to the World. We suggest that multi-scale total engineering
education system, composed of self-contained knowledge hierarchy ranging from quantum chemistry to
Newton dynamics, continuous fluid dynamics and finally to chemical process design, is necessitated in order
to bring up qualified chemical engineers for the upcoming era.

The report summarizes the current situation of China's oil refining and petrochemical industry, China
has become the major country of oil refining and petrochemical industry, but big and not strong; analysis the
challenges that China's oil refining and petrochemical industry will face by 2030, pointed out that diesel,
gasoline and oil consumption will have experience peak levels, petrochemical product consumption growth
will also slow down, the lack of market competitiveness of raw material factors, resource import
dependence continues to rise, challenging task in environment management and so on. For 2030, China's oil
refining and petrochemical industry should strengthen industrial foundation; second, develop high-end
products;third, adhere to the green low-carbon strategy;fourth,Encourage Science and Technological
Innovation;fifth,Integration of information technology;sixth, Strengthen international cooperation,
to achieve the industry target from big to strong.

Perovksite Structured Metal Oxide Sorbents with Oxygen Vacancy OrderDisorder Transition for High Temperature Air Separation
Oxygen sorption on perovskite-structured metal oxides offers an effective solution to air separation at
high temperatures. However, the main challenges in developing this new high temperature adsorption
separation technology are large heat of adsorption and slow desorption kinetic. This talk will present a
method to minimize the heat effects and enhance desorption kinetics by taking advantage of an
endothermic process of oxygen vacancy order-disorder phase transition accompanying the oxygen
sorption process on some perovskite-structured metal oxide sorbents. The paper will report oxygen
sorption isotherms, phase diagram, exothermic heat of oxygen sorption, and endothermic heat of
order-disorder phase transition for a perovskite sorbent with composition of La0.1Sr0.9Co0.9Fe0.1O3−δ.
The conditions for zero apparent heat of sorption are determined. The strategy for heat effect
minimization is demonstrated with the results of TGA/DSC measurements at different operating
conditions. Air separation by a fixed-bed packed with the perovskite-type oxide sorbent will be
presented to demonstrate the enhancement in the oxygen adsorption and desorption rates.

Oxygen transport membranes for air separation under harsh conditions
The oxyfuel technology using ceramic membranes with mixed oxygen ion and electronic
conductivity for oxygen production represents a promising technique for CO2 capture, and is
considered as one of the most advanced technologies for clean power production. The operation
environment of oxygen transport membrane (OTM) in oxyfuel process is relatively harsh, and the
membrane is exposed to a recirculated sweep gas stream to pick up the permeated oxygen, which
contains highly concentrated CO2. The stability of the membrane against CO2 corrosion is essential to
guarantee long-term operation. In addition, OTM is attracting increasing interests as the reactor for
partial oxidation of methane to syngas due to the simplicity in process design, safety in operation, and
outstanding performance in oxygen separation. To choose appropriate OTM with high oxygen
permeability and thermochemical stability is very important when constructing such kind of membrane
reactors. In this talk, we will discuss the stability of cobalt-containing perovskites and ceria-based
membranes for air separation under CO2 or reducing atmosphere.

Associate Professor of College of Chemistry and Molecular Engineering of
Peking University. Major participant of the Project “Development of Highly efficient
adsorbent for air separation and large scale VPSA-O2 equipment”, which won the

Separation of CO from blast furnace gas by VPSA using adsorbent PU-1
In China, steel plants are emitting 2×1010 m3/year blast furnace gas (BFG) containing 25% CO, which
might be used as fuel or to synthesize methane, acetic acid, DMF, DMC, glycol, TDI etc.. However, 50% N2 in
BFG makes it difficult for cryogenic separation, since the boiling points of CO and N2 are too close. To solve
that problem, a highly efficient CuCl/Zeoilte adsorbent named PU-1 has been developed, which has high CO
adsorption capacity and high CO/N2 selectivity. By using PU-1 in VPSA process, over 40 large scale
equipments have been built in China to separate CO from syngas, calcium carbide tail gas etc., with CO
purity >99% and recovery >85%. As for the separation of CO from BFG, the first 67000 Nm3/h plant was
built in China in 2013. Without pretreatment of 25% CO2 in BFG, the plant produces 20000 Nm3/h CO with
purity 65~75% and recovery >77%, which has been used as the fuel for steel rolling heating furnace,
replacing 4×107 Nm3 natural gas per year. Further removing CO2 in BFG, purification to >99% CO could be
done to meet the requirement of chemical synthesis.

currently is a professor in Chemical Engineering at Beijing University of Chemical
Technology. His main research interest focuses on employing computational
techniques to model gas adsorption, diffusion and separation in nanostructured materials including metal-organic frameworks and covalent-organic
frameworks.
Computational study of structure-property relationships of
MOFs and COFs for gas separation
Currently, the associated research on MOFs and COFs has been rapidly developed into one of the important
areas in chemistry, materials science, and multiple branches of engineering. The remarkable feature of the
two types of porous materials allows them to serve as a uniquely ideal platform for various specific
applications including gas separation. Considering the structural complexity and diversity of MOFs and COFs,
molecular modeling provides a powerful tool to give deep insight into the phenomena studied at the
molecular level compared to experimental exploration. On the other hand, structure−property relationships
are crucial for enabling a theoretically rapid screening of existing MOFs and COFs as well as for guiding the
design/synthesis of novel adsorbents with desirable structural characteristics. Thus, with the aid of a multiscale computation, some new concepts and research methods have been developed for better
understanding the structure-property relationships of MOFs and COFs for targeted gas separation, and
some quantitative models have been further derived. These models could be used to rationalize and predict
the performance of a large series of MOFs and COFs as well as guide the design of advanced materials with
outstanding performance for industrial gas separation.

Metal-Organic Frameworks for Removal of Ammonia from Air
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are permanently porous coordination polymers that have recently
emerged as an important new class of porous materials with the potential to make an immediate impact in
adsorption separation technologies. MOFs are synthesized by a self-assembly process in which metal or
metal-oxide vertices are connected by rigid or semi-rigid organic molecules. The rational synthesis
approach opens up the possibility for new advances in the development of new and improved adsorbents
for air purification and the removal of toxic industrial chemicals.1 MOFs have shown the potential to be
designed for adsorbate-specific interactions. However, the density of active sites is often low, and the
commercial use of MOFs is still limited by issues with water stability2 and synthesis scale-up. This
presentation will discuss our recent progress in this area and will demonstrate the applicability of MOFs in
ammonia removal from air.

Biomanufacturing 4.0: in vitro Synthetic Enzymatic Biosystems
The largest production challenge of biocommodities (e.g., biofuels, renewable chemicals, and even food)
from carbohydrates, other energy sources (e.g., solar energy and methane) or other carbon sources (e.g.,
CO2 and coal) is economics, satisfying three manufacturing criteria: high product yield, fast productivity and
easy product separation. Living natural or engineered cells have their inherent constraints, such as selfduplication, bioenergetics, cell membrane, and so on, resulting in their limited success in high-energy
efficiency biotransformation, especially in the energy area. In vitro synthetic biosystems (IVSB) via the in
vitro assembly of numerous standardized and exchangeable enzymes or their complexes and/or (biomimetic)
cofactors can implement complicated biological reactions that microbes cannot do .

Utilizing Microsphere Material Technology to Promote Development of
Biochemical Engineering
Microsphere materials have played great role on development of Biochemical Engineering and related
industries in history. Microcapsule technique promoted the birth of long-acting formulation of
protein/peptide drugs. Therefore, it can be expected the invention of new microsphere materials will lead to
development of biochemical engineering. In fact, in above chemical engineering application, the size and
morphology of microsphere materials should be controlled and optimized respectively according to their
applications. However, there is few method to prepare uniform microsphere for biocompatible polymer
system such like polysaccharide, polylactide, and so on. As a result, the effect of size on application results
could not be studied systematically and precisely.

Gene Therapy Meets Cell Therapy: Applications in Regenerative Medicine
Delayed union/non-union resulting from bone fractures or serious trauma remains a challenging problem
for orthopaedic surgeons. Conversely, cartilage defect or degeneration due to trauma or joint diseases can
lead to debilitating pain and physical impairment. These problems have inspired the development of tissue
engineering, which combines cells, biomaterials and biological signals, to stimulate cartilage/bone
regeneration. Over the past decade, gene therapy has converged with cartilage and bone engineering, by
which an increasing number of therapeutic genes are explored to stimulate cartilage and bone repair.
These genes can be administered to cells via in vivo or ex vivo approaches using either viral or nonviral
vectors. This presentation will focus on the use of viral vectors for genetic engineering of mesenchymal
stem cells for cartilage/bone regeneration. In particular, emphasis is placed on the applications of
baculovirus, an emerging nonpathogenic gene delivery vector, for the repair of cartilage and bone.

Bioproduction process intensification by innovative engineering studies
on bioreactor and cellular metabolism
Bioproduction process has "green" and some unique features which attract great interest for industrial
application as a powerful biomanufacturing platform. Reduction of production cost, which depends on the
enhancement of bioprocessing efficiency, is a critical issue to commercial success. Bioproduction process
intensification, as a key to solving the bottleneck, was here achieved by innovative engineering studies on
bioreactor and cellular metabolism. A typical example to be illustrated is production of ganoderic acids by
Ganoderma lucidum, a traditional Chinese medicinal mushroom, which have significant anti-tumor and antimetastasis activities. Their further (pre-)clinic evaluations are severely hampered by lack of sufficient
amount of the pure compounds. To overcome the problem of target compound supply, advanced
bioprocess technology and smart bioseparation protocol are very important and urgently required. Our
strategies for enhancing the production and recovery of the secondary metabolites from fermentation of
the mushroom mycelia include bioreactor innovation, two-stage cultivation strategy, signal transduction
engineering of calcium/calcineurin signaling system, metabolic engineering, novel chemical conversion and
simultaneous extraction/hydrolysis, etc. This presentation will show how the titer and productivity of
fermentation production of ganoderic acid by G. lucidum was greatly improved by innovative engineering
studies.

Bioproduction of nutritional chemicals in China
With the increase of economic level and the improvement of the health concerns, people are increasingly
concerned about the nutrition, safety and function of the food. Nutritional chemicals are now the trend of
fine chemical industry. Nutritional supplements could be produced by enzymatically or through microbial
fermentation.
In the present report, the historic developments and technological achievements in
nutritional chemicals production in the past several years are reviewed. The species, characteristics, market
of nutritional chemicals were firstly introduced. Subsequently, recent studies of the bio-based nutritional
chemical production are summarized. In this part, we will focus on several typical products, such as
polyunsaturated fatty acids, vitamin K2, functional sugar, and so on. Furthermore, progress in the industrial
production of several nutritional chemicals is discussed. Finally, guidelines for future studies of nutritional
chemical production are proposed in light of the current progress, challenges, and trends in the field.

Ligand-Binding Isotherm and Catalysis of Polymorphic Enzymes
While most enzymes are single-sited for binding key ligands (or substrate) for which Michaelis-Menten
equation is adequate, there exist multiple binding-site enzymes. Multiple binding sites can appear either for
simple enzymes or for conformal complex structure of enzyme molecules. The multi-site behavior of
enzymes (or enzyme complexes) leads to the concepts of coorperativity, allostery or allosteric enzymes.
Substrate binding isotherm and catalytic rate expressions have been derived for multi-site enzymes without
differentiating the different structural confirmations. The simple kinetic expressions can explain some of the
simple allosteric interactions. Still, there are enzymes present as dynamic mixtures of multiple oligomer
forms, or polymorphs. A polymorph or system of multiple oligomeric enzymes can be summarily described
quantitatively with cooperative substrate binding and catalytic reaction theory.

Molecular Metal Catalysts on Supports:
Organometallic Chemistry Meets Surface Science
Advances in synthesis and characterization of essentially molecular metal complexes and clusters on supports are
making a reality of catalyst design. We summarize work unraveling effects of the design variables of these siteisolated catalysts: the metal, metal nuclearity, support, and other ligands on the metal. Successful syntheses
provide structurally simple, uniform species bonded to crystalline porous supports chosen for their relatively high
degrees of uniformity: zeolites, MOFs, and MgO. The catalyst syntheses involve reactions of organometallic
precursors (e.g., Ir(C2H4)2(acac) (acac is acetylacetonate) with OH groups of the support surfaces—to give
structures such as Ir(C2H4)2, with the Ir atom bonded to two oxygen atoms of the support. The methods of
characterization of the supported species include IR, EXAFS, XANES, and NMR spectroscopies, atomic-resolution
electron, and computations at the level of density functional theory.

Catalytic conversion of biomass to fuels and chemicals:
opportunities and challenges
Lignocellulose is the most abundant biomass. The huge and diversified resources and non-edible nature of
lignocellulose make it an ideal feedstock alternative to fossil for the sustainable production of fuels and chemicals
in a renewable way. Catalysis is intensively involved in the biorefinery of lignocellulose, as it has been doing in the
oil/coal refinery process. However, the stubborn and recalcitrant structure of lignocellulose, the high O/C ratio in
its composition, and the difficulty in separation of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin in natural raw materials
present significant challenges in the biorefinery process. In this presentation, I will first give a summary of the
recent advances in the catalytic conversion of biomass to fuels and chemicals, and then put focus on the
development of new catalytic processes in my own group, and finally provide an outlook on the opportunities and
challenges.

Diffusion Regimes of Molecules in One-dimensional Zeolite Channels
The diffusion of noble gas molecules (Ne, Ar, Kr) in one-dimensional zeolite channels (VET, AFI, VFI) is simulated
by molecular dynamics. The diffusion regimes include: Knudsen Diffusion where molecule-wall collisions
dominate, Gaseous Diffusion where molecule-molecule collisions dominate, and Configurational Diffusion where
molecule and wall are in constant contact. The principal parameters in the determination of diffusivity regimes
are: the diameter ratio (dc/dm) of the channel to the molecule, and the volume density (NVm/Vc) which is the
ratio of the volume of N molecules to volume of channel. For a molecule in a channel, we define the mean stop
path (MSP) as the average distance between collisions, which may be with another molecule or with the wall; it
depends on both the mean free path and the channel diameter.

Impact of cycling and catalyst configuration on reduction of NOx emission
from diesel engines
The reduction of NOx gases emitted by diesel passenger cars is usually accomplished by a Lean NOx Trap
(LNT) also referred to as NOx Storage and Reduction (NSR) technology. This process consists of periodic cycling
between a lean feed (NOx + excess O2,), leading to storage of the NOx storage on the LNT catalyst
(Pt/BaO/CeO2/Al2O3) and a rich feed (mixture of CO, H2 and hydrocarbons) that reduces the stored NOx to N2 .
The NOx conversion by the LNT is typically unsatisfactory (< 80%) at exhaust temperatures lower than 200 oC,
and higher than 400 oC. Toyota researchers developed a Di-Air (Diesel NOx aftertreatment by Adsorbed
Intermediate Reductants) process in which a high frequency injection of hydrocarbon expands the operating
temperature window of the LNT.

Development and Application of A Fluid Catalytic Cracking Gasoline
Hydro-Upgrading Process GARDES
More than 90% of sulfur-containing compounds and about 90% of olefins in typical refinery gasoline pools
come from fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) gasoline, thus the sulfur and olefin reduction of this stream is crucial
for producing clean gasoline. It has been widely recognized that hydrotreating is the most important
technique for producing clean transportation fuels in industrial practice, but the existing techniques can
hardly accomplish the objectives of both deep hydrodesulfurization (HDS) and olefin reduction of FCC
gasoline with acceptable loss in gasoline research octane number (RON). To solve this problem, we
developed a novel process, GARDES, by coupling high-efficient HDS and directed olefin conversion.

Reaction and Transport Coupling in Multi-Functional Catalysts
for Selective Oxidation of Ammonia to N2
The reduction of NOx from lean burn engine exhaust involves structured catalytic reactors wherein storage,
transport and reaction are coupled to achieve emission targets over a wide range of temperatures and
space velocities. The lean selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx requires the supply of the reductant
NH3, a fraction of which may escape unconverted from the SCR reactor. For this reason an “Ammonia Slip
Catalyst” (ASC) is positioned downstream of the SCR catalyst with the purpose of eliminating the slipped
ammonia by catalytic oxidation to N2. The most active ammonia oxidation catalyst is Pt but the N2
selectivity is only high near the light-off temperature (~200-250 oC). At higher temperature NO and NO2
are the major oxidation products. The ASC combines an ammonia oxidation catalytic function containing Pt
with a NOx reduction function containing Fe- or Cu-exchanged zeolite to convert NH3 with high selectivity
to N2. In this talk we describe the performance features of the ASC reactors comprising catalyst
architectures that combine multiple active layers and/or zones containing the NH3 oxidation and NOx
reduction functions. We show how focused experiments complemented by modeling can not only lead to
deeper insight but also to “optimal” structures and operating strategies.

Ionic Liquid Catalytic Reaction for Green Process Engineering
As a green medium, ionic liquids (ILs) have been widely used in catalytic reaction, organic synthesis,
separation process and other fields due to their unique properties and great potentials in industry
applications. We focused on the investigation of ILs from fundamental studies to practical applications. On
the molecular level, we found that H-bond in ILs showed the covalent feature based on the molecular
dynamic simulation and experimental characteristic, which has been defined as a new concept of Z-bond. It
was also found that Z-bond made a great contribution to the catalytic reaction. We revealed the synergistic
catalytic effect of cations and anions, and developed series of homogeneous and supported functionalized IL
catalysts with high catalytic activity. Based on the fundamental research on Z-bond, the novel green
processes were established.

An Alternative Synthetic Route for Ethylene Glycol/Ethanol Production:
Fundamental Research and Industrial Applications
Ethylene glycol (EG) and ethanol (EtOH) are important chemicals or fuel additives used in a variety of consumer
and industrial applications. We described an alternative approach for the synthesis of EG/EtOH derived from
syngas based on an integrated technology consisting of the coupling of CO with methanol to form dimethyl
oxalate (DMO) and subsequent hydrogenation. For the key issues of copper-based catalysts faced in the
hydrogenation reaction, such as indeterminate active sites, unstable active species and the internal diffusion limit
in scale-up, new strategies were presented not only for design of a highly efficient and stable catalyst, but also for
highly chemo-selective synthesis of EtOH and EG.

An Upgrading Process of Viscous Heavy Oil by
Fluid Thermo-Cata-Contacting Conversion
Pretreating inferior residues to provide feedstock with trace metals and a few asphaltenes for
downstream processes is important for refineries to process heavier crude oils. Toward this end, the
upgrading of Liaohe vacuum residue over special catalysts designed for decarbonization and demetalization,
which is called fluid thermal conversion (FTC), was investigated in a technical pilot scale riser apparatus. The
experimental results demonstrate that moderate cracking severity is favorable for obtaining the maximum
distillate (C5~500 oC) yield. Under the favorable conditions, the yield of total liquid product was 79.63 wt%,
and coke yield was 15.59 wt%, which took up 87% CCR value of the feedstock, while the gas yield was 2.11
wt%. In addition, most of the contaminants, such as above 97% asphaltenes and metals were removed.
Then, the properties of liquid products were analyzed in detail. The RON of gasoline is high up to 94,
whereas that is generally only about 60 for coker gasoline. The basic nitrogen compounds in heavy cycle oil
was 824 μg•g-1, only about 1/3 that of coker gas oil. To understand secondary processing performance of
heavy liquid products, fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) of heavy cycle oil and FTC of slurry were conducted. The
results reveals that heavy cycle oil has better FCC ability than coker gas oil, whereas FTC ability of slurry is
considerably below that of Liaohe vacuum residue.

are in understanding and developing metal carbides and bimetallic alloys as catalysts
and electrocatalysts through combined theoretical and experimental approaches over
model surfaces and supported catalysts. He is an expert in using in situ synchrotron
techniques for investigating structural and electronic properties of catalysts.
CO2 Conversion to Methanol and Syngas
Rising atmospheric concentration of CO2 is forecasted to have potentially disastrous effects on the global
climate changes and ocean acidification. A catalytic process that utilizes CO2 as a feedstock to make
methanol, carbon monoxide, or methane is potentially more desirable than sequestration. In the current
talk we will describe our recent results of CO2 conversion through heterogeneous catalysis, using
approaches involving parallel efforts in density functional theory (DFT) calculations, surface science
experiments on model systems, synthesis and evaluation of supported catalysts, and in-situ characterization
of catalysts under reaction conditions. We will compare three examples for the catalytic conversion of CO2,
to methanol over Cu-based oxides, to methane over bimetallic alloys, and to CO over metal carbides. We will
discuss general trends, challenges and opportunities for the catalytic conversion of CO2.

Fischer–Tropsch synthesis process development:
from laboratory to commercial scale
Milestone advances using Synfuels China’s Fischer–Trospch (F–T) synthesis technology have been made
towards commercialization of Fischer-Trospch synthesis technology in China. A four million ton/a coal-toliquids (CTL) plant is under construction in Ningxia province following the successful technology
demonstration at 4000 bbl/d scale in Inner Mongolia. The CTL process development by Synfuels China
started from solid fundamental studies with more than twenty years experience accumulation in catalysis
and kinetic studies, which led to the demonstration of Synfuels China’s medium temperature FT (MTFT)
synthesis process. Density Functional Theory (DFT) together with the sophisticated catalyst property
characterization tools has been routinely applied during catalyst development. Fundamental R&D efforts
integrating all aspects of chemical engineering have greatly been enhanced by combining the fundamental
tools covering the F–T synthesis mechanism, reaction engineering, and process optimization.

Resilient Energy through Hybridization in Microgrid Applications
In the future, the electric grid must be more resilient and adaptable to local catastrophes including fires,
severe storms, and heat waves. Microgrids represent a way to improve energy resilience because they
would allow smaller regions (neighborhoods, towns, cites) to disconnect from the national electric grid and
become islands of stable, independent power to support critical infrastructure including hospitals, airports,
food distribution, communication centers, etc. The work reported here describes efforts to develop resilient
energy through hybridization in Microgrid applications. These efforts are focused on incorporating clean,
low-carbon energy resources together with efficient energy storage and local on-site energy management
systems. These microgrids will help meet carbon reduction goals as we explore concept that integrate
various technologies into the larger grid, including electric vehicles.
The focus of our work has been to assess the viability of a microgrid to manage renewable energy
together with conventional energy resources to meet electric power demand while minimizing adverse grid
impacts. Our work examines the use of microgrid controller/energy management systems coupled with
renewable energy resources (i.e., solar, wind, geothermal, hydro, biomass) in a hybridized energy system.
Our work examines the economic impact replicating deployment of renewable-based microgrids for
commercial, industrial, and mixed-use applications.

The role of particle engineering in designing pharmaceutical particles and
pharmaceutical composite material (PCM)
In solid dosage processes, the Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) is generally blended with excipients
via wet or dry granulation. In some cases, direct blending is also possible. The size and shape of the API
particle can be modified in a way so that the formulation process and the drug product performance can
be optimized. Some common particle engineering approaches will be reviewed. A relatively new area of
particle engineering is to study how certain commonly used excipients can be combined with API in more
deliberate and controlled manner. This approach leads to the design of pharmaceutical composite
material (PCM). In the field of material science, there are many examples of composite materials. Two
well-known composite materials in everyday use are Concrete (stones and cement), and fiber reinforced
polymer. The composite approach combines two or more material in a specific way in order to produce a
material with different physical or chemical properties. PCM can be designed to solve some of the
common issues related to solid dosage production such as material flow, stability, release profile,
bioavailability, content uniformity and taste.

Mycosynthetic generation of new bioactive molecules
The impact of natural products on drug discovery pipelines keep kindling the interest in structurally
unpredictable low-molecular-weight biomolecules as an unforeseeable source of pharmaceutical leads. But
scientists are being more or less frustrated by re-isolations of described compounds from new organism
collections since countless natural products have been characterized since Serturner’s isolation of morphine
in 1806. To overcome this frustration and the limitation in the organism-based affordability and chemical
space expansion of minor new natural products, chemical synthesis has been performed to produce
complex molecules and natural product-like compounds with privileged scaffolds found in nature. To add
more skills to the existing arsenal of searching for new bioactive molecules, this talk will present the
mycosynthetic generation of unnatural hybrid molecules with biological function by taking the advantage of
evolutionally acquired fungal bioassembly lines. The key points and advantages of the mycosynthetic
approaches will be mentioned for enabling fungi to produce more novel alkaloids and polyketides as well as
the alkaloid-polyketide hybrid molecules.

Food safety and agriculture challenges and call for actions
Food safety has become an emerging issue globally, especially with interwoven food supply chain that not only
increases challenges but also adversely impacts human health. There is a dire need to establish a sound and
effective mechanism to reduce and minimize food safety hazards. While movements toward risk-based
management are evident in recent years, voids remain when it comes to foster environmentally benign,
sustainable agriculture. Additional to the guiding principles, this talk intends to address the practices and
challenges when assessing food safety risks on a global level, as well as how to integrate various tools from a
broad spectrum in order to attain safe and quality foods for the ever-increasing global population.

Four stage anaerobic technology
Two sets of 20T four stages anaerobic reactor system were established and were used to treat sewage from
spiramycin and etimicin production respectively. The results showed that the COD degration rate reached
90% and 95% which were much more higher than those in one stage anaerobic reactor system. Some other
parameters such as antibiotics degration rate, the time course of pH and activated sludge were also
investigated. After more than 6 months tests, we concluded that antibiotic production sewage could be
treated using such multistage-anaerobic technology more effectively to substitute one stage anaerobic
reactor system commonly used nowadays. In addition, the anaerobic degradation behaviors of spiramycin I
by sludge were investigated. Structural determination was then performed by nuclear magnetic resonance
and MS/MS spectra, and data indicated that hydroxylation and hydrolysis were main reactions during the
anaerobic digestion of spiramycin I. P-1 is the intermediate of hydroxylation, and P-2 is the intermediate of
hydrolysis. P-3 is the final product of the both reaction. This study revealed a hydroxylation and hydrolysis
mechanism of macrolide in anaerobic digestion.

Study on the Preparation of Cyclodextrin
Cyclodextrins (CDs) are unique natural materials, which can bind hydrophobic molecules within their
internal cavities and carry them into aqueous solution. These advantageous properties have led to their
widespread use in many industrial fields. Cyclodextrin glycosyltransferases (EC 2.4.1.19, CGTases) could
catalyze the conversion of starch or starch derivatives into mixtures of -, -, and -cyclodextrins. Starch is
composed of D-glucose units linked together by -1,4-glucosidic linkages and -1,6-glucosidic linkages. Due
to CGTases’ incapability of hydrolyzing -1,6-glucosidic linkages, only a part of starch could be used to be
transformed into CDs. In order to improve the yield of starch conversion, a new synchronous bioconversion
process was applied, in which both the isoamylase and CGTase (- or - CGTase) were used simultaneously.
The yield of α- and γ-cyclodextrin was turned out to be 79.8% and 72.5% (w/w), respectively.

Out-of-the-box Solutions:
Making Synthetic Starch and Zero-Calorie Sweetener from Nonfood Biomass
The global food system is experiencing profound changes as a result of anthropegenic pressures.
Increasing population to 9 billion and food consumption per capita means that the global food demand
could increase by 70% by 2050. Food security is placing unprecedented demands on agriculture and natural
resources, such as water, land, fertilizers, and fossil fuels. The World Health Organization (WHO) and Food
and Agricultural Organization (FAO) recommend population nutrient intake goals for preventing diet-related
chronic diseases in terms of caloric uptake: total carbohydrate (55-75%), total fat (15-30%), and protein (1015%), where free sugars (i.e., monosaccharides and disaccharides) in the diet accounts for less than 10% of
carbohydrate intake. A properly balanced diet is important to lower health risks, such as obesity, type 2
diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, cancer and so on.

natural products
Biosynthesis and Metabolic Engineering of Pharmaceutically Relevant Polycyclic
Natural Products from Marine-derived Actinomycetes
Marine-derived actinomycetes are emerging as the most important new sources for discoverying novel natural
product possessing excellent bioactivities with pharmaceutical significance. Our findings demonstrate that
marine-deirved actinomycetes are rich in taxonomical diversity and are prolific in producing bioactive
compounds, as exemplified by bisindole alkaloids with unprecedented spiro-rings, and several polycyclic
natural products with diverse bioactivities. Biosynthetic studies revealed different mechanisms to form
polycyclic rings. Xiamycin A is an indolosesquiterpene isolated from a marine-derived Streptomyces sp. SCSIO
02999. Genetic and biochemical experiments demonstrated that a cascade of oxidative cyclization reactions
were involved in the formation of the pentacyclic ring in xiamycin A. In contrast, a reductive cyclization
strategy was unveiled for the biosynthesis of ikarugamycin, a polycyclic tetramate macrolactam. The
biochemical mechanism to form an inner five-membered ring, catalyzed by the NAD(P)H-dehydrogenase IkaC,
was unveiled by labelling studies using stereospecifically deuterated NADPH cofactor and/or deuterium
oxide,mechanistcally analogous to a [1 + 6] Michael addition reaction. Intriguingly, spontaneous cyclizations
occured during the biosynthesis of polycyclic macrolactams heronamides, which also featuring double bond
migrations in the side chain. We also reported the production of structure variants of polycyclic naturla
products via metabolic engineering.

Progress on Pesticide Residue Analytical Methodology
and International Risk Management
Pesticide/veterinary residue analysis is advancing very rapidly, which is required by monitoring market
samples in many countries for both domestic and international trading, regulatory enforcement, risk
assessment of dietary intakes, organic food verification, environmental research and so on. At the same
time, analytical methods for pesticide/veterinary determination are facing challenges with various demands,
for ins. rapid screening, on-site detection. For most methods, the key procedures of pesticide/veterinary
residue analysis are: cleanup of sample extracts in order to avoiding interferences from complicated
matrices, increasing powerful resolution and determination ability of analyzers.
Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) are set by risk assessment bodies based on scientific reviews on residue
data of field trial (or monitoring) and toxicological findings of pesticides. MRLs differ among countries for
some crop/pesticide combinations, due to reasons such as: different GAP use patterns, residue data
variations as of climate, geographic zone or crop species; also there are other factors such as risk analysis
differentiations of: dietary data of national population, risk assessment model or policy, trade
considerations etc. The speaker will concentrate on the introduction and comparison of crop grouping
system for MRL setting used now in China and other countries/organizations, and on the representative
crops for residue data evaluations. Experimental data of field trials on Leaf vegetables and Brassicas may
give some examples for representative crop selection/extrapolation. Minor crop problems of herbs,
mushrooms, and bean sprouts products in China will also be addressed and discussed.

Toward a distributed renewable electrochemmical energy and mobility system:
Polymer electrolytes and electrocatalysis
One of the grand challenges facing humanity today is the development of an alternative energy system
that is safe, clean, and sustainable and where combustion of fossil fuels no longer dominates. A distributed
renewable electrochemical energy and mobility system (DREEMS) could meet this challenge. At the
foundation of this new energy system are a number of electrochemical devices including fuel cells,
electrolyzers, and flow batteries. For all these devices polymer electrolytes and electrocatalysis play a
critical role in controlling their performance and cost, and thus their commercial viability. In this
presentation, I will focus on our recent work on hydroxide exchange membrane fuel cells which can work
with non-precious metal catalysts and inexpensive polymer electrolytes, and thus can be economically
viable. More specifically I will show how we have discovered a super-stable organic cation, why hydrogen
oxidation reactions are slower in base than in acid, and what we have developed as the most active nonprecious metal hydrogen oxidation reaction catalysts.

Application of Green Technology to Fibrous Separation
Membranes for Water Purification
The ultra-thin cellulose nanofibers have been isolated by using a variety of methods. Among them, the
combined TEMPO oxidation/mechanical treatment has been a very successful way to fabricate nanofibers
with cross-sections of a few nanometers and a high degree of crystallinity. Non-woven nanofibrous
scaffolds have unique properties, including interconnected pores, a very large surface-to-volume ratio, and
a high capacity for surface modifications. The hierarchical fibrous structure with fibers of different crosssections, together with the use of directed water channels in the barrier layer and surface functionalization,
permits us to fabricate high throughput separation media. In this presentation, we discuss the fabrication
and characterization of those nanofibers and their applications to micro-, ultra-, and nano-filtration.

Polyamidoamine-facilitated Poly (ethylene glycol)/Ionic Liquid based Pressure
Swing Membrane Absorption Process for CO2 Removal from Shifted Syngas
A novel cyclic 5-valve pressure swing membrane absorption (PSMAB) process is being developed for
CO2 removal from lower-temperature shifted syngas at ~ 100oC in hollow-fiber membrane contactors using
ionic liquid (IL) absorbent, 1-butyl-3-methyl-imidazolium dicyanamide ([bmim][DCA]). Separation
performance is considerably enhanced by adding nonvolatile polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer
Generation 0 to the IL at higher temperatures for a 40% CO2, 60% He (surrogate for H2) feed. Absorption
performance in the cyclic process depends on selective sorption and other absorbent properties especially
viscosity and hollow-fiber membrane contactor module design employing microporous hydrophobized
polyether ether ketone (PEEK) hollow fiber-based membranes. Equilibrium CO2 solubility and CO2-He
selectivity for IL, [bmim][DCA], has been compared with those for poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) 400 which
yields improved equilibrium CO2-He selectivity and CO2 absorption with/without 20 wt% PAMAM dendrimer
over the temperature range 50-100oC. The PSMAB process separation performance has been explored
using PEG 400-based absorbent in two hollow-fiber membrane contactor modules with improved designs in
series at temperatures up to 100oC and feed-gas pressures up to 1724 kPag (250 psig).

Structured Catalysts and Reactors: A Green Chemical Technology
Structured catalysts and reactors have been becoming significant green chemical technologies in gassolid and gas-liquid-solid reactions due to the unique advantages they offer such as controlling
hydrodynamics, transport phenomena and reaction kinetics, so that energy efficiency would be improved
and generation of hazardous substances would be reduced or eliminated. In this work, for gas-solid reaction
with structured catalysts, we focus on selective catalytic reduction (SCR) for NO (nitrogen oxide) removal,
and try to identify the relationship between the internals of SCR system and mixing performance for
controlling ammonia (NH3) slip (<5 ppm). On the other hand, for gas-liquid-solid reaction with structured
catalysts, the transfer and reaction performances for the alkylation of benzene with propylene to produce
cumene over monolith catalysts as well as structured catalytic packings were investigated by means of the
combination of experiments and computational fluid dynamics (CFDs) .

Catalytic Membranes for Production of Biofuels and Chemicals
Catalytically active membranes may be used to catalyze a reaction and separate the product in one step
leading to significant process intensification. Here we focus on biomass hydrolysis and dehydration for
production of biofuels and chemical intermediates. Ceramic membranes have been functionalized by
growing poly(styrene sulfonic acid) (PSSA) chains as well as polymeric ionic liquid (PIL) chains from the
surface of ceramic membranes. A UV initiator based on a benzoin ether derivative and 2-bromobutyryl
bromide (ATRP initiator) were immobilized on the ceramic membrane surface. Next ATRP of sodium 4styrenesulfonate was conducted followed by UV initiated free radical polymerization of 1-vinylimidazole(VI).
The density of the PSSA and PIL chains was varied by varying the incubation times of the two different
initiators. Modified membranes were characterized using X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy, Infrared
Spectroscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy.A membrane reactor was designed and tested using feed
streams consisting of cellulose and hemicellulose and glucose in water and water/ionic liquid,
acetonitrile/ionic liquid, dimethylacetamide/ionic liquid, -valerolactrone/ionic liquid mixtures. Reduced
sugars as well as chemical intermediates such as hydroxymethylfurfural, furfural and levulinic acid were
collected in the permeate. We have tuned the membrane pore structure in order to maximize recovery of
the desired products in the permeate. Our results indicate the feasibility of designing a catalytic membrane
reactor for production of biofuels and chemicals.

Insight into D−A−π−A featured sensitizers: a reliable route to
highly efficient and stable dye-sensitized solar cells
The practical application of DSSCs requires further improvements in the power conversion efficiency and
long term stability. Recently, we have systematically studied a novel concept of D−A−π−A model for the
molecular engineering of organic photosensitizers. We highlights recent advance in the D−A−π−A based
photosensitizers, specifically focusing on the mechanism of efficiency and stability enhancements. Also we
take insight into the additional acceptor as well as the trade-off of long wavelength response. The basic
principles are involved in the molecular engineering of efficient D−A−π−A sensitizers, providing a clear road
map how to rationally extend the response wavelength, enhance molecular extinction coefficients, and step
by step optimize photovoltaic efficiency.

Willibrord A. Groten Wednesday Oct.14, 13:30-14:30 PM M806, Yifu Building
Dr. Will Groten is currently Vice President of Research & Development for
CB&I, the world’s most complete energy infrastructure company. Additionally,
he holds titles of Managing Director of CDTech and President of Chemical
Research & Licensing LLC, now wholly owned subsidiaries of the Technology
group of CB&I since 2011. In his current capacity he oversees R&D, technology
evaluations, intellectual property and the fabrication of proprietary CDTech
products, for CB&I.
In prior roles, Dr. Groten held numerous R&D roles leading to the
development of new process technologies for CDTech including that of
Director of Technology. He also served for several years with Criterion
Catalysts & Technologies, L.P as VP Process Technology & Projects for
Criterion, overseeing their clean fuels technology programs.
Dr. Groten earned a Bachelor of Science & Engineering in Fuels and Materials Engineering at the Royal Military
College of Canada in 1982 and served in the Canadian Armed Forces as an officer and Search & Rescue pilot. He
retired from military service with the rank of Captain in 1987 and went on to earn his PhD from Queen’s
University, Kingston, Ontario in the field of catalysis and reaction engineering. He is author or co-author on a
dozen papers and named inventor on two dozen patents. Over the course of his engineering career, he has been
involved in the successful development and launch of more than 20 new, innovative process technologies into
the refining and petrochemical industry.
Innovation and culture in the engineering firm
It is fitting that the subject of this symposium be now included in the Sino-US Chemical Engineering
Conference. Innovation, although an often overused buzz word, is central to economic growth and wellbeing of society in general. For businesses, it is an essential ingredient in a sustainable business model.
The fundamental driver of the process of innovation is, of course, the associated human factor. Thus,
managing the process of innovation in the field of Chemical Engineering will necessarily require both “art”
and “science”. The innovation process does not occur in a void but rather occurs in a particular context.
Broadly speaking, this can include the internal organization of a company, its culture, and the external
world environment, which typically includes a marketplace populated by competitors all aimed to deliver
their innovative technology solutions to solve and address a customer’s problems and needs. Using
CB&I’s history of innovation in the chemical process industry, a generic framework of the innovation
process will be presented, capturing specific experiences, and address a few of the unique challenges
found along the way. This presentation is meant to be thought provoking and set the stage for a
successful first R&D Management Science Symposium.

Dr. Medhat Tannous is currently Sr. Director for Regional R&D. He is
responsible for strategic development and direction of UOP regional R&D
programs, including: providing technology support to the UOP regional General
Managers and developing strategic and operational plans for regional R&D
customer engagements. He also provides oversight to regional labs in India and
Saudi Arabia. Prior to that, Medhat was R&D Director for the Middle East where

Manufacturing Technology and Catalyst business. Medhat has a Ph.D. in
Chemical Engineering and an MBA. He is also a Honeywell certified Six Sigma
Master Black Belt and Six Sigma Lean expert. Medhat is the author of 4 patents
and several publications.
Enhancing the effectiveness of R&D
The goal of every R&D department is to develop new technologies to support business growth. For over one
hundred years, UOP has been providing the oil, gas and petrochemicals industries with groundbreaking
technical innovations resulting from its pioneering research work in catalysis, separations and process
design. The key factors for a successful R&D operation are acquiring and retaining talents, providing
researchers with the tools and capabilities that are necessary to perform cutting edge science, and aligning
research programs with business objectives that are based on customer needs, market trends, regulations
and competitive analysis. Needless to mention that having the best talents, resources and capabilities alone
will not enhance the effectiveness of R&D unless disciplined, integrated and cross functional work processes
are strictly deployed. Among such work processes are strategic planning, technology road mapping, voice of
the customer, portfolio management, open innovation and technology delivery process. Such work
processes, enabled with the six sigma methodology and tools are key to an efficient and effective R&D
operation designed to enhance the growth of the business and maximize the return on R&D investment.
Examples of such work processes and tools will also be described.

Innovative Technology of Design – TRIZ
Sergei Ikovenko
International TRIZ Association and Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA, USA, 02139
sergeiikovenko@aol.com
TRIZ (a Russian acronym for Theory for Inventive Problem Solving) is a powerful suite of tools and methodologies
for improving existing products (such as by reducing cost, improving functionality, or both) and for developing new
generation products.
In the conventional wisdom, innovation is an inefficient and ineffective process. Limited resources, psychological
inertia, limited breadth of technical knowledge, information overload, tendency to compromise, inability to
objectively forecast the technological future and, finally, choosing the wrong problem to solve have all been cited
as reasons that prevent innovation. Because of these so called "innovation killers", most innovations are
incremental at best and are aimed at improving already existing products.
TRIZ bypasses typical innovation killers by using:
Analytical tools that identify the right problems
Objective and statistically proven Trends of Evolution for Engineering Systems
Problem-solving tools that solve engineering problems without compromise, often leading to breakthrough
solutions
The power of TRIZ lies in its ability to make innovation a predictable, and, therefore, risk-averse process by
applying a scientific and methodological framework to solving engineering problems. Importantly, TRIZ is not a
substitute for intelligence. Rather, it can be viewed as a multiplication constant to intelligence that serves as a
stimulator, an optimizer, and a filter to make the innovation process significantly more productive, efficient, and
effective.

Interfacial Assembly and Engineering of Ordered Functional Mesoporous
Materials for Applications
With recent progresses made in modern nanoscience and nanotechnology, ordered mesoporous materials
have been one of the hottest research topics in scientific community spanned chemistry, materials science,
physics and biology. The construction of mesoporous materials is mainly concerned with building monodispersed
mesosized (2-50 nm) pore voids and arranging them in a long-range ordered array. Generally, two kinds of
templates are used to produce the mesopores: supramolecular aggregates such as surfactant micelle arrays, and
rigid preformed solids such as ordered mesoporous silica, carbon, and colloidal crystals. Noticeably, besides the
templates, the interface also plays a central role in the synthetic process, because it provides a rich and crucial
space for the assembly and construction of mesostructures. Generally, two kinds of interfaces involve in the
synthetic system. The first one is at between surfactant templates and guest species, which has been extensively
investigated. Another important interface is the two-phase (solid, liquid and gas) one, including liquid-solid, gasliquid, liquid-liquid, gas-solid, and solid-solid interface, which has been well developed for the synthesis of
ordered mesoporous materials. Compared with the one phase synthesis referring to homogeneous nucleation
and growth, the introduction of a two-phase interface in the system can change the growth behaviors of
mesoporous materials and lead to the formation of molding or multifunctional mesoporous materials.

Nanogenerators for self-powered systems and piezotronics for smart devices
Developing wireless nanodevices and nanosystems is of critical importance for sensing, medical science,
environmental/infrastructure monitoring, defense technology and even personal electronics. It is highly desirable
for wireless devices to be self-powered without using battery. Nanogenerators (NGs) have been developed based
on piezoelectric, trioboelectric and pyroelectric effects, aiming at building self-sufficient power sources for
mico/nano-systems. The output of the nanogenerators now is high enough to drive a wireless sensor system and
charge a battery for a cell phone, and they are becoming a vital technology for sustainable, independent and
maintenance free operation of micro/nano-systems and mobile/portable electronics. An energy conversion
efficiency of 55% and an output power density of 500 W/m2 have been demonstrated. This technology is now
not only capable of driving portable electronics, but also has the potential for harvesting wind and ocean wave
energy for large-scale power application. This talk will focus on the updated progress in NGs.

Polyurethanes and Ionomers: High Performance Elastomers and Plastics Self
Reinforced with Nanoscale Structure
Elastomeric (AB)n-type segmented copolymers are systems which exhibit properties similar to crosslinked
rubbers, but are thermoplastic and may therefore be processed by conventional molding and extrusion
techniques. At use temperature, one component is viscous or rubbery (soft segment), while the second
block is glassy or semi-crystalline in nature (hard segment). Typically, polyurethane segmented elastomers
exhibit phase separation on the scale of nanometers with the hard segment domains acting as physical
crosslinks and/or filler particles for the flexible soft segment matrix. Ionomers are copolymers where a low
concentration ionic monomer is polymerized within a hydrophobic backbone. In the solid state the ionic
species aggregate into nanoscale reinforcing domains which impart unique physical properties to these
materials

Bioinspired 2D/3D architecture-mediated cell response and tissue regeneration
Critical size bone defects raise great demands for efficient bone substitutes. Development of advanced bone
substitutes with excellent osteogenic capability that can support damaged tissue, induce osteogenic
differentiation and re-establish original geometry and function of the impaired tissue is highly desired. Insitu guided tissue regeneration based on the functional materials and growth factor represents a new
strategy and is being rapidly developed nowadays. For this promising strategy, the key is to explore 2D/3Dmediated cell response and tissue formation. Here, we show some interesting results about the 2D
interface/surface-induced protein adsorption and cell response, and 3D hierarchical architecture and bone
regeneration. Combining experiment and molecular dynamic simulations, we found that the 2D
nanostructured HAPs could modulate the way of adsorption of rhBMP-2, and thus the recognition of BMPRIA and the bioactivity of rhBMP-2. Compared with 2D CPC surface, 5MCPC could strongly enhance the
attachment, morphology, focal adhesion formation, actin filaments assembly and osteogenic differentiation
of BMSCs. With 3D Macro-micro-meso bioactive glass and PHBHHx/SMC scaffolds, we investigated the
effects of the surface morphology, porous structure, etc on the cell response, mass transfer and bone
regeneration in details. The results obtained in this study might provide new thoughts on the design and
development of future orthopedic biomaterials.

Carbon-based metal-free electrocatalysts for energy conversion and storage
As a building block for carbon materials of all other dimensionalities (e.g., 0D buckyball, 1D nanotube, 3D
graphite) , the two-dimensional (2D) single atomic carbon sheet of graphene has emerged as an attractive
candidate for energy applications due to its unique structure and properties. Recently, a new class of
graphitic carbon nanomaterials has been discovered as metal-free electrocatalysts to replace commercially
available noble metal (e.g., Pt, Ru) electrocatalysts for energy conversion and storage. For instance, we have
demonstrated that nitrogen-doped graphene (N-graphene) could actively electrocatalyze ORR via a fourelectron process free from the CO-poisoning effect with a higher electrocatalytic activity and better longterm durability than that of commercially available Pt/C electrocatalysts. On the basis of these experimental
observations and quantum mechanics calculations, we have attributed the observed ORR electrocatalytic
activities of the graphene-based catalysts to the electron-accepting ability of the chemically-bonded
nitrogen atoms. The N-doping induced charge-transfer could create a net positive charge (via intramolecular
charge-transfer) on adjacent carbon atoms in the nanocarbon structures to effectively change the O2
adsorption mode and to readily attract electrons from the anode, facilitating the oxygen reduction reaction
(ORR) on the metal-free cathode in fuel cells.

Macroscopic Nanoparticle Assemblies: Integration, Functionalization and Applications
The huge diversity of hierarchical micro-/nano- rigid structures existing in biological systems is
increasingly becoming a source of inspiration of materials scientists and engineers to create next generation
advanced functional materials. Recently, accompanied with the development of nanotechnology, some
biologically hierarchical rigid structures have been duplicated and mimicked in artificial materials through
hierarchical organization of micro-/nanosized building blocks. Although the properties of nanomaterials are
frequently superior to those of their bulk counterparts, translating the unique characteristics of individual
nanoscale components into macroscopic functional devices still remains a challenge.
In this lecture, we discuss how to assemble nanoscale building blocks into ordered assemblies as well as
their functionalities, and how to integrate them with already existing macroscopic structures and realize
their functionalization. A family of nanowire or nanoplate assemblies in form of thin films or 3D integrated
structures can be generated, demonstrating that it is possible to access a variety of high quality hybrid
materials with tunable mechanical property and other multifunctionalities. These assembled structures
show enormous application potential in diverse fields such as electronics, elastomeric conductors,
electrocatalysis, and super adsorbents.

Controlled Manufacturing of Polymers with Complex Chain Microstructure
Precise control over chain microstructure in a large-scale industrial production of polymer is an exciting
emerging research area and it is driven by the practical demands not only for superior physical properties and
special functionalities of the polymer materials, but also for value addition to polymerization processes and raw
materials. Constrained by the conventional mechanisms, the current industrial practices can only control average
chain properties such as average molecular weight, average copolymer composition, tacticity, etc. Based on the
CLRP and LCP mechanisms and polymerization kinetics, we have derived process models for the semi-batch CLRP
and LCP copolymerization, and used the models to design computer-programmed comonomer feeding policies
for production of polymers with targeted chain microstructures. Using this methodology, copolymers with various
chain microstructures, including uniform, random, linear, inverse linear, gradient, hyperbolic, di-block and triblock copolymers and polymers having complex topologies such as V-shape gradient, hyper-branched, crosslinked,
and multi-armed star polymers were experimentally synthesized.

Molecular sieving nanosheets of metal-organic framework
as building blocks for H2/CO2 separation
Separation of H2 from CO2 with membranes is an energy-efficient and environmentally friendly alternative
to cryogenic and absorptive or adsorptive gas separation processes. To obtain high membrane separation
performance, i.e., to fast screen molecules with high resolution, ultrathin membranes possessing regular pores
with precise size is long-cherished. Molecular sieving nanosheets (MSNs) are the ideal building blocks to put this
kind of membranes into reality. We prepare 1-nm-thick MSNs with large lateral area and high crystallinity from
layered metal-organic framework precursor and report their use in fabricating highly selective and ultrapermeable molecular sieving membranes. Unlike previous membranes performance reported to date, we found
an unusual proportional relationship between H2 permeance and H2 selectivity for the MSNs membranes, and
we achieved a simultaneous increase in both permeance and selectivity by suppressing lamellar stacking of the
MSNs so as to avoid pore blockage of the MSNs.

Preparation of microcapsules and nanoparticles with microflows
Microflow engineering and technology have high promising prospects for the development of
controllable preparation processes for materials, because they could have safety, fast mixing, and high
mass and heat transfer rate. More than ten years ago we began to develop micro-structured chemical
systems for developing controllable processes for material preparation. Multiphase microflows
including gas-liquid, liquid-liquid, gas-liquid-liquid, liquid-liquid-liquid, gas-liquid-solid systems have
been realized. Uniform bubbles and droplets could be generated with microdevices. Controllable
preparation of nanoparticle and microcapsule in microstructured chemical systems have been tested.
The results show that the microstructured systems are very controllable. The particle size and the
morphologies of the prepared materials can be well controlled. In this presentation, we will show some
cases for the development of controllable processes for material preparation with microstructured
systems.

Nano and nanostructured materials created by room temperature electron reduction
Electron is the greenest reducing agent for the reduction of noble metal ions to prepare nanoparticles or
nanostructured materials. Two methods have been developed with electron as reducing agent: electron
beam irradiation and room temperature electron reduction with glow discharge or radio frequency
discharge as the resource of electrons. In this presentation, we attempt to summarize the current status of
electron reduction with those non-hydrogen discharges as electron resource. Future development has been
addressed too. The room temperature electron reduction via discharges is excellent for size and structure
control with fast nucleation and slow crystal growth. It is a simple, easy, cheap and energy efficient way to
reduce metal ions. It is also excellent to load noble metal particles into channels of ordered porous
materials, like SBA-15, with no need of complex chemical modification. The room temperature operation
makes it very useful for the preparation of noble metal catalysts supported on thermal sensitive substrates
like peptide, porous organic materials, conducting polymers, ultrahigh surface area carbon, peptides and
proteins.

Cancer Drug Delivery: A CAPIR Cascade and Nanocarrier Design
The cancer drug delivery process is a cascade of five steps consisting of circulation in blood, accumulation
and penetration into the tumor, cellular internalization and intracellular drug release, or the CAPIR cascade.
Thus, the most challenging aspect of cancer nanomedicine design is the integration and synchronization of
all functions required to accomplish the CAPIR cascade into one system, particularly, many of which are in
opposite in different CAPIR steps. Here, we present a nanocarrier likened to a “ cluster bomb” capable of
releasing small pH-sensitive drug-carrying nanoparticles (bomblets). This cluster bomb-like nanocarrier
synchronizes pegylation-to depegylation, large-to-small size, and neutral-to-positive charge transitions
essential for accomplishing the CAPIR cascade, enabling the carried drug to reach cells deep in the tumor,
significantly enhancing its in vivo antitumor efficacy.

Tunable nanochannels along graphene oxide nanosheets to achieve
high-performance proton exchange membrane
Simultaneous manipulation of topological and chemical structures to induce ionic nanochannel formation
within solid electrolytes is a crucial but challenging task for the rational design of high-performance
electrochemical devices including proton exchange membrane fuel cell. Herein, we present a novel generic
approach for the construction of tunable ion-conducting nanochannels via direct assembly of graphene
oxide (GO)/poly(phosphonic acid) core-shell nanosheets prepared by surface-initiated precipitation
polymerization. Using this simple and rapid approach to engineer GO/polymer nanosheets at the molecularlevel, ordered and continuous nanochannels with interconnected hydrogen-bonded networks having a
favorable water environment can be created.

Bioreducible Layer-by-layer Films for Sequential Gene Delivery
Layer-by-layer (LbL) films containing nucleic acids are promising biomaterials for localized gene delivery
applications including DNA vaccine delivery and tissue regeneration. Gene delivery applications require that
LbL films degrade and release film contents in physiological conditions. Our research focuses on the
synthesis and engineering of bioreducible poly(amido amine)s containing the disulfide bond as gene delivery
vectors. This talk describes a method to achieve sequential DNA release from LbL films containing
strategically placed bioreducible and nonbioreducible polycations. In order to control DNA release sequence,
the LbL film assembly and disassembly were studied by in situ atomic force microscopy, fluorescence
spectroscopy, and dynamic light scattering. We found that the LbL film containing alternating layers of
poly(amido amine) and DNA underwent fast degradation in reducing solution with micrometer particles
released from the surface. This bulk degradation behavior was changed into a sequential DNA release
pattern with nanometer products by periodic insertion of a nonbioreducible polycation poly(ethylenimine).
The insertion also resulted in improved transfection of human embryonic kidney 293 cells. We will present
results that directly link the LbL film structure with DNA release dynamics and cell transfection efficiency.
Our work demonstrates a simple method for the designing of LbL films for sequential and sustained DNA
release for gene delivery applications.

Drop microfluidics: A versatile and promising approach to
fabricate functional granular materials
Functional granular materials with typical sizes of 1~1000 µm have received considerable attention for
many applications. Generally, the overall functions of these microparticles strongly rely on both of their
structures and the properties of their component materials. Thus, the combination of unique structures with
functional materials provides an important route for developing advanced functional granular materials. In
this presentation, we highlight the recent effort for microfluidic fabrication of granular materials with welldesigned functions for potential biomedical applications, along with the development of microfluidic
techniques for producing the versatile emulsion templates. The phase-separated multiple emulsions allows
utilization of a variety of functional materials to generate compartment microparticles including hollow, coreshell, multicore/shell and hole-shell structures for controlled encapsulation/release, selective capture, and
confined bioreaction. We envision that the versatility of microfluidics for microparticle synthesis could open
new frontiers and provide promising and exciting opportunities for fabricating brand-new functional
microparticles with broad implications for myriad fields.

Palladium, a most possible alternative for Platinum used in fuel
Palladium, iridium, ruthenium and silver based catalysts have been widely investigated as alternatives to
Pt in fuel cell applications. Among them, Pd has received considerable attention in comparison with other
metal catalysts because of its relatively high activity for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), stability,
abundance, and low cost. Our latest research shows that the electronic structure of Pd is tuned to be close
to that of Pt when Pd is supported on an exfoliated two dimensional oxide nanoplatelet (montmorillonite,
MMT). 10 Further investigation revealed that a thin PdOx layer with Pd–O–MMT junctions, formed at the
particle/support interface, alters the electronic structure of Pd and diminishes the bonding strength of the
adsorbed O, and thus, leading to an enhanced ORR activity and stability.11 In addition, our study on a
reduced polyoxometalate (rPOM) supported Pd nanoparticle catalyst show that the ORR activity of Pd is
superior to that of the commercial Pt/C catalyst in alkaline medium due to the assist catalytic effect and
the electron delocalization effect of the rPOM support.

Preparation and Functionalization of Graphene Materials for Water treatment
The low-cost preparation and functionalization of graphene materials with tuned structure and
properties have drawn much attention, and remain a big challenge up to now. With an aim of developing
techniques for making functional materials based on graphene for water treatment, and energy storage &
conversion, we have made efforts to explore the potential of producing graphene from coal, and the simple
yet effective new approaches to functionalized graphene via chemical and physical ways. In this talk, I will
report on the preparation of graphene from coal, the reduction of graphene oxides (GO) by microwave and
dielectric barrier discharge techniques, the synthesis of graphene aerogels with unique structure and
properties via self-assembly schemes by tuning the GO with chemicals containing NH2 groups, and the
applications of graphene aerogels in oil/water separation. I also will report a new strategy for high
performance membrane capacitive deionization (MCDI) by designing a novel graphene-based cationselective coating material over film-like electrospun carbon fibers. The composites function to minimize the
co-ion expulsion effect that is not uncommon for traditional CDI process,leading to an enhanced
electrosorption capacity and an improved charge efficiency. This may open up a new avenue for highperformance, energy-efficient and cost-effective MCDI, and for wide applications of functional graphenebased materials..

Advanced Ion Exchange Membrane for Enhanced Ion Transportation
via Molecular Design
The depletion of conventional energy sources and the pollution of the environment have put great
pressure on the human beings. Seeking for alternative energy and methods to diminish environmental
pollution is currently the most urgent task. In this context, ion exchange membrane research has attracted
intensive research interests over the past decades.
Ion exchange membranes are composed of a polymeric backbone and fixed groups (either anionic or
cationic), which are utilized for the transportation of counter-ions. Over the years, researcher of the
membrane community have continued to design series of anion exchange membranes and cation exchange
membranes. Our work also falls into this category. Since 1997, we have designed several types of ion
exchange membranes.
We have employed atomic transfer radical polymerization, polyacylation, Suzuki-Miyaura coupling,
Menshutkin reaction etc. to precisely control the membrane morphology, mechanical properties, topology,
ion transportation properties and so on. In this meeting, we will introduce our most recent work on
advanced ion exchange membrane for enhanced ion transportation based on molecular design.

New Strategies to Characterize Dynamic Structure of Functional
Materials: Advances in Operando Techniques
The structure of functional materials is usually significantly affected by the environmental media
during working processes. For instance, the surface structure for catalysts, absorbers and sensors are
likely changed more or less by the interaction with molecules around or adsorbed on the surfaces. The
establishment of the structure-performance relationship is of paramount importance for the rational
design and controllable synthesis of those functional materials. Up to date, Operando/in situ
spectroscopy, as cutting-techniques, are developed for this aim. More recent advances in this field and
a case study will be introduced.

Ordered nanoporous polymers by selective swelling of amphiphilic block copolymers
Nanoporous materials are finding extensive applications in a diversity of fields ranging from membrane
separation to drug delivery to optoelectronics. In these applications pore geometries and size uniformity
play important roles in dictating the performances of the materials; therefore, it is highly demanding for
efficient and affordable strategies to produce materials with well-defined porosities. In this lecture, we will
talk about our recent works on highly ordered nanoporous polymeric materials derived from block
copolymers (BCPs). When exposed to selective solvents preferential only to the more polar blocks of BCPs,
(e. g. the P2VP block in polystyrene-block-poly (2-vinyl pyridine), PS-b-P2VP), P2VP domains will be swollen
selectively by ethanol and mesopores form upon ethanol removal, while the major, nonpolar PS block holds
the infrastructure of the BCP material mainly unchanged because PS chains are in the glassy state during the
swelling treatment. The sizes of pores in the BCP layer can be tuned either by changing swelling conditions,
e. g. time and temperature, or by using BCPs with different molecular weights. Interestingly, due to the
immigration of the polyelectrolyte-natured blocks onto the pore wall, the resulting porous materials possess
an intrinsically active surface with enhanced hydrophilicity, fouling resistance, and even a stimuli-response
function.

Controlled synthesis of hierarchical nanostructured electrode materials for
energy storage applications
In this topic, we mainly focus on the design and synthesis of novel hierarchical nanostructures electrode
materials by confined reaction. Firstly, the heterostructures have been fabricated via the spray-assisted
combustion. For example, SnO2 nanorod@TiO2 hybrids are obtained by a modified flame spray pyrolysis
approach, showing high power conversion efficiency. Secondly, the interlayer nanocomposites have been
prepared by the intercalation assembly methods in the channel in two-dimensional layers. Typically, we
designed a new two-dimensional hybrid nanosheet superstructure consisting of the layer-by-layer interoverlapped single-layer MoS2 and mesoporous carbon (m-C) nanosheets by the confined reaction in the MoS2
interlamilation. The hybrids created rich atomic interface for lithium ion storage. Thirdly, the host-guest
composites of mesoporous materials with semiconductor and conductive polymer have been constructed by
the confined reaction in the mesopores. The relationship between material structure and application
performance is also developed. Our studies are expected to provide new materials for energy storage
applications.

High Performance Multi-functional Nanocoatings
Biomimetic organic/inorganic hybrid nanocoatings with a nacre-like microstructure were prepared via a
facile coassembly process. The formed nanocoatings typically possess a very low thickness of less than one
micron, and their thickness can be easily controlled. Slightly different from conventional polymer
nanocomposites, such nanocoatings contain a high concentration of nanosheets, which can be well aligned
along the substrate surface. Moreover, the nanosheets and polymer matrix can be chemically cocrosslinked. As a result, the nanocoatings exhibit exceptional mechanical properties (high stiffness and
strength), barrier properties (to both oxygen and water vapor), and flame retardancy, but meanwhile they
are highly transparent (the coated substrates can typically maintain more than 85% of their original
transmittance to visible light). The nanocoatings can be applied to various substrates (such as various
polymers, glass, metals, wood) and regular or irregular surfaces. Because of their excellent performance and
high versatility, such nanocoatings are expected to find practical daily applications such as food packaging,
etc.

Perovskites as Energy Materials: Synthesis and Femtosecond
Laser Spectroscopy Studies
Perovskite films were prepared using solution deposition at different annealing temperatures and
annealing times. The crystal structure, phases and grain size were investigated with XRD, XPS and SEM/EDX.
The prepared films show a typical orientation of tetragonal perovskite phase and a gradual transition at
room temperature from the yellow intermediate phase to the black perovskite phase. Films with high purity
were obtained by sintering at 100 °C. In addition, the intermediate phase could be transformed to the
perovskite phase upon Photoirradiation. These CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite were deposited as layered films on
substrates with and without a titania support structure and studied using femtosecond time-resolved
transient absorption (fs-TA) spectroscopy in the visible light range (450-800 nm). The electron relaxation
dynamics from the photoexcited perovskite layers to the neighboring film structures could be directly
monitored via the transient bleaching dynamics of the perovskite at ~750 nm and thus systematically
studied as a function of the layer-by-layer architecture. We could also spectrally distinguish transient
bleaching at ~750 nm from laser induced fluorescence that occurs red-shifted at ~780 nm. Carrier trapping is
found to be enhanced on mesoporous titania due to the possibility of grain boundaries within perovskite
and PbI2 nanocrystals at the TiO2 interface. As a result of device and material degradation, PbI2 nanocrystals
can be conveniently verified in the fs-TA spectra as transient bleach signal at ~510 nm.

Porous Polymers as Smart Materials
Novel functional materials such as nanostructured materials and smart materials have the potential to
fundamentally change the way materials are used. Comparing to conventional materials they are of lighterweight and significantly higher performance, and may offer functionalities that do not exist today.
Manufacturing these materials in an efficient, environmentally benign process is also of paramount
importance for sustainability.
Widely used in many applications, porous polymeric materials have been intensely investigated. In this
paper we discuss our effort in exploring porous polymers as smart materials for sensing, energy harvesting,
and biomedical applications. We illustrate the utilization of environmentally benign supercritical carbon
dioxide enabled process to fabricate several types of porous polymer based smart materials and their
property enhancement by nanomaterials. Examples will be given to highlight how fundamental

Experimental and Model Studies on Continuous Separation of 2-Phenylpropionic Acid Enantiomers by
Enantioselective Liquid–Liquid Extraction in Centrifugal Contactor Separators
Multistage enantioselective liquid-liquid extraction (ELLE) of 2-phenylpropionic (2-PPA) enantiomers using
hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) as extractant was studied experimentally in a counter-current
cascade of centrifugal contactor separators (CCSs). Performance of the process was evaluated by purity
(enantiomeric excess, ee) and yield (Y). A multistage equilibrium model was established on the basis of
single-stage model for chiral extraction of 2-PPA enantiomers and the law of mass conservation. A series of
experiments on the extract phase/washing phase ratio (W/O ratio), extractant concentration, the pH value of
aqueous phase and the number of stages was conducted to verify the multistage equilibrium model. It was
found that model predictions were in good agreement with the experimental results. The model was applied
to predict and optimize the symmetrical separation of 2-PPA enantiomers. The optimal conditions for
symmetric separation involves a W/O ratio of 0.6, pH of 2.5 and HP-β-CD concentration of 0.1 mol/L at
temperature of 278 K, where eeeq (equal enantiomeric excess) can reach up to 37% and Yeq (equal yield) to
69%. By simulation and optimization, the minimum number of stages was evaluated at 98 and 106 for eeeq >
95% and eeeq > 97%.

Bismuth-containing nano-photocatalysts: controlled synthesis and applications
Through the construction of novel structures, exposure of active facets, and/or fabrication of
heterojunctions, we developed bismuth-containing materials that show excellent visible-light-induced
activity.2-6 (1) Flower-like BiOX (X= Cl, Br, I, CO3) with high exposure of (110) faces can be easily synthesized
at room temperature. (2) Composites with BiOI/Bi2O2CO3, g-C3N4/Bi2O2CO3, and g-C3N4/Bi2O3 p-n
heterjunctions can efficiently facilitate the dye-sensitizing and charge-carriers separation processes. (3)
Cu2O-BiVO4 composites can synergistically remove dyes and Cr(VI) from water. The composites can be
synthesized by a two-step solvothermal method. (4) Hollow and branched Bi2O3-Bi2S3 heterostructures can
be generated by an environment-friendly “etching and re-growth” method, and the method can be applied
to synthesize other Bi2S3-sensitized photocatalysts. The as-fabricated materials display high photocurrent
response as well as high activity towards dye degradation under visible light. Most recently, by unifying
Bi2WO6 microflowers with g-C3N4-Bi2MoO6 as well as other bismuth-containing composites, we prepared
photocatalysts that exhibit high activity towards the selective oxidation of organics.

Nanocomposites and Nanotechnology in Proton Exchange Membranes Materials
All polymeric electrolyte fuel cells have typically been operated in a temperature range between
approximately 50 and 90oC. The temperatures above the polymer glass transition temperature (~110oC for
Nafion) can cause polymer chain rearrangements, which can lead to structural changes in the membrane
and lower the membrane stability, performance, and lifetime. Polymeric membranes able to operate above
120oC could benefit from both enhanced carbon monoxide (CO) tolerance and improved heat removal. The
addition of nanofunctions into a polymeric membranes to form a nanocomposites can alter and improve
polymer properties such as glass transition temperature, elastic modulus, tensile strength, solvent
permeability, hydrophilicity, water uptake and proton conductivity while enabling the polymeric
membranes to maintain its suitability for operation in the fuel cells.
Highly sulfonated polyarylenethioethersulfones (SPTES) polymers were successfully synthesized. To
improve the high temperature performance of the SPTES membranes in the fuel cell application, the
nanoparticles, such as ZrP or Clay, sulfonated poly(p-phenylene benzobisimidazole) (SPBI) were introduced
into the SPTES membranes to form nanocomposite membranes. The interesting feature of the
nanoparticles is that it can retain water at high temperature, and it was found that the swelling of the
nanocomposite membranes was reduced due to the reduced water uptake of the nanocomposite
membrane. The morphology changes of the nanocomposite membranes were examined by a combination
of techniques such as X-ray diffraction (WAXD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission
electron microscopy (TEM) to confirm the dispersion of SPBI and nanoparticles as well as nanophase
separation. The membrane electrode assembly (MEA) performance of the nanocomposite membranes was
preliminary studied for H2/O2 fuel cells applications

(MOF) materials for heterogeneous catalysis and gas adsorption /separation. In the past
10 years, he has published more than 60 papers on MOFs in the peer reviewed journals.
Metal-organic frameworks encapsulated metal nanoparticles for
heterogeneous catalysis
In this talk, we focus on two aspects of MOFs’ catalysis applications: the use of MOF materials as
scaffold for the incorporation of metal nanoparticles, and the preparation of metal/carbon materials from
thermolysis of MOFs.We employed stable MOFs as support for highly dispersed metal. The metal-doped
MOFs are shown to be highly efficient for a variety of chemical conversions. In order to encapsulate metal
NPs within MOFs, we have developed a novel synthesis strategy through ligand design prior to MOF
assembly, achieving uniformly distributed metal NPs inside the cavities of MOFs. On the other hand, taking
advantage of their ordered structures and relatively low thermal stability, MOFs could be utilized for the
preparation of new metal oxides or carbon nanomaterials by thermal decomposition. Here we show that
Co nanoparticles embedded in nitrogen-doped carbon prepared from MOFs thermonlysis could catalyze a
variety of organic transformations, such as aerobic oxidation of alcohols to esters, low-temperature CO
oxidation, and oxidative amidation of aldehydes.

Highly conductive and flexible polymer composites based on carbon
nanotube/graphene network
Here, the carbon nanotubes and graphene were prepared into 3D carbon aerogel (CA) structures by
using organic sol-gel method. Meanwhile, we also creatively designed a new stretchable conductive
material that integrates 3D CNTs/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) network with a porous PDMS (p-PDMS)
elastomer (pPCG). This reciprocal architecture not only alleviates the aggregation of carbon nanofillers but
also significantly improves the conductivity of pPCG under large strains. The simulation of the mechanical
properties of the p-PDMS model demonstrates that an extremely large applied strain can be
accommodated through local rotations and bending of cell walls. Thus, after a slight decrease, the
conductivity of pPCG can continue to remain constant even as the strain increases to 50%. In general, this
architecture of pPCG with a combination of a porous polymer substrate and 3D carbon nanofiller network
possesses considerable potential for numerous applications in next-generation stretchable electronics.

Ion exchange membrane-based separation technologies
Ion exchange membranes are of the corresponding resins in membrane shape. Electro-membranes and
related processes have attracted more and more attention and have found numerous applications in
resource recycling, energy conversion, and environmental protection. These vital technologies are
developing as a new platform in industrial ecosystems because they can realize some novel separation and
production to achieve the maximal utilization of resources and pollution prevention. The economical and
environmental benefits of electro-membranes technologies are flexibly coupled with many other
technologies to achieve a synergistic technological intensification. In this Keynote report, the recent
developments of the most commonly used ion exchange membrane-based separation technologies such as
diffusion dialysis (DD), conventional electrodialysis (CED) and bipolar membranes electrodialysis (BMED) will

Novel Fluoropolyamide NF Membranes and Separation Properties
A novel composite nanofiltration (NF) membrane was prepared by interfacial polymerization of 2,2’bis(1-hydroxyl-1-trifluoromethyl-2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)-4,4’-methylenedianiline (BHTTM) and trimesoyl
chloride (TMC) on polyethersulfone (PES) supporting membrane. Different preparation conditions and NF
membrane performances were discussed. The membrane structures of composite NF membranes were
characterized by attenuated total reflectance infrared (ATR-IR), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and
atomic force microscopy (AFM). The results showed that the NF membrane prepared under the optimum
condition exhibited Na2SO4 rejection of 85.3% and the water flux of 10.1 l.m-2.h-1. The NF membrane was
treated by 5000 ppm chlorine solution for 1 h. The salt rejection and water flux of the treated membrane
reached to 94.5% and 94.8 l.m-2.h-1. The rejection of two NF membranes for inorganic electrolyte solutions
decreased in the order of Na2SO4, MgSO4, MgCl2, NaCl, which were typical characteristics of negatively
charged membranes.

Membrane engineering for water purification and reuse in mining industry
High water stress, increasing energy consumptions and mineral depletion are all already critical issues.
Process engineering is one of the disciplines more involved in the technological innovations necessary to
face these strongly inter-connected problems. As a matter of fact, water is also needed for energy
generation (e.g. as cooling component); energy is also needed in desalination and for raw material
production (especially in mining where large amount of energy and water are necessary). Membrane
technology can represent a problem-solver with inter-correlated solutions. In the last years membranes
operations have been already assigned a key role in water reclamation schemes that are aimed at higher
water quality reuse applications (i.e., reverse osmosis is considered one of the most promising technologies
for desalting salty waters). Moreover, the traditional membrane separation operations (e.g., MF, UF, NF,
RO), widely used in many different applications, are today combined with new membrane systems such as
MD, MCr, PRO, RED. At present, redesign of important industrial production cycles by combining various
membrane operations suitable for separation and conversion units, and thus realizing highly integrated
membrane processes, is an attractive opportunity because of the synergistic effects that can be attained. In
this work, integrated membrane-based desalination have been considered for the extraction of fresh water
and metals of interest from seawater and high concentrated brine streams of the desalination plants.

Molecular Separation Membranes Derived from Graphene Oxide nanosheets
A facile silane-graft modification approach proposed by our group was demonstrated to be an efficient
way to improve the quality of the GO film formed on the porous ceramic substrate. Based on this, we
further demonstrated a scalable fabrication of GO membranes on ceramic hollow fiber substrate and
showed good PV dehydrotion of aqueous organic solution. The as-prepared membrane exhibited excellent
water permeation for dimethyl carbonate/water mixtures. In addition, we also proposed a novel type of
membrane with fast and selective gas-transport channels of GO laminates enabled by polymer-GO hydrogen
bonding.[4] Featuring molecular-sieving interlayer spaces and straight diffusion pathways, the assembled
graphene oxide laminates endow the gas separation membranes with excellent CO2 permeation
performance and extraordinary operational stability which is believed to be attractive for implementation in
practical CO2 capture. Recently, we demonstrated a novel bio-inspired strategy that utilizes the synergistic
effect of a hydrophilic polymer and GO laminates to realize fast water-transport channels for constructing
high-efficiency membrane. Because GO nanosheets can be easily mass-produced by chemical oxidization
and ultrasonic exfoliation from inexpensive raw graphite, it is expected that GO-based material is promising
for membrane based process, including PV dehydration and gas separation

Elucidation of the microstructure of interfacially polymerized
reverse osmosis membranes
Today, the most commonly used commercial membranes for brackish and seawater desalination are
based on thin-film polyamide composite membranes formed by interfacial polymerization of multifunctional
aromatic or cycloaliphatic diamines and acid chlorides. The resulting thin films are typically 200 to 2000 Å
thick with various topologies ranging from smooth and continuous to highly heterogeneous, ridge and valley
structures. Optimized RO membranes exhibit salt rejection of 99+%, indicating that the highly water
permeable, salt rejecting polyamide layer is essentially defect-free. It has been postulated that transport
across the polyamide layer occurs by a solution/diffusion mechanism similar to that well accepted in gas
permeation processes. In this work, we investigated the microstructure of RO membranes by means of
water transport studies (RO and FO mode), gas permeation experiments as well as tomography, TEM and
FESEM studies. Our results confirm that the water flux of RO membranes can be optimized by incorporation
of various porous and non-porous nanofillers, such as POSS and ZIF-8, without loss in salt rejection.

Experimental and Modeling Studies in Membrane Distillation
We have studied direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD) using porous polypropylene hollow fiber
membranes (HFMs) having a highly porous plasma polymerized fluorosiloxane coating on the outside
surface. These fibers are arranged in a rectangular module with hot brine in cross-flow. When such a
module is fed with hot de-oiled produced water (Chevron), we can recover as much 80% of the water by
DCMD without scaling damage on the membranes. Since this water is hot, no heat source is needed.
Although the feed had many constituents, the permeate produced was highly purified; conventional
treatment for this produced water involved 7-8 steps. Steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) process of
producing oil from Canadian oil-shale yields a produced water at 2-4 atm and 130-150oC+. We have studied
successfully a DCMD process to recover water using flat and HFMs of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and
polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) from simulated SAGD-produced water at high temperatures. To evaluate the
influence of membrane properties on DCMD, many commercially-available microporous hydrophobic flat
membranes of PVDF and PTFE (varying pore size and thickness) were studied over a range of hot brine
temperatures. Membrane properties, e.g., the maximum pore size and tortuosity, were experimentally
determined for use in modeling Knudsen and the transition regimes. The heat transfer coefficients in the
membrane cell and membrane surface temperatures were determined from experimental data via Wilson
plots.

New Fouling-Resistant High-Flux Membranes for Seawater Desalination
We have synthesized high flux membranes by incorporating a hydrophilic additive in the aqueous amine
solution during interfacial polymerization, resulting in increasing water flux significantly through an
additional pathway for water transport while maintaining high salt rejection via charge repulsion. For
seawater desalination using synthetic 3.28 wt% NaCl solution at 800 psi (5.52 MPa) and 25oC, the
membrane synthesized with the hydrophilic additive showed a very high flux of 1.81 m3/m2/day (44.4
gallons/ft2/day (gfd)) and a salt rejection of 99.41%. This flux was 83.5% higher than the membrane
synthesized without the hydrophilic additive. The high-flux membrane was further tested using seawater
from Port Hueneme, CA and exhibited a very good and stable desalination performance for 30 days. FTIR
confirmed the good membrane stability. The membrane synthesized with hydrophilic additive showed
significantly improved fouling resistance using sodium alginate as the model foulant. With 25 ppm sodium
alginate in the synthetic feed solution, the water flux reduction of the membrane synthesized with the
hydrophilic additive was 11.0% compared to 18.2% for the membrane synthesized without the additive.
Analysis of the fouling resistance using the resistance-in-series model indicated that the values of the ratio
of the mass transfer resistance due to the foulant for the membrane synthesized with the additive to that
for the membrane without the additive were 0.30 and 0.29 for 25 ppm and 50 ppm sodium alginate in the
feed solutions, respectively. Analysis using atomic force microscopy showed a smoother membrane surface
for the membrane incorporated with the hydrophilic additive.

Chemical Looping Processes: Role of Fluidization and Particle Science
The concept of chemical looping reactions has been applied to processes used in chemical industries.
Fundamental and applied research on chemical looping reactions in energy systems has been extensively
carried out. Fossil fuel chemical looping applications started with the steam-iron process using syngas from
coal as feedstock in the 1900s through the 1940s and were demonstrated at a pilot scale with the carbon
dioxide acceptor process in the 1960s and 1970s. There are presently no chemical looping processes using
carbonaceous fuels in commercial operation. However, with CO2 emission from fossil fuel usage that is now
of great concern, interest is high in chemical looping technology applications for CO2 capture. Chemical
looping technology is a manifestation of the interplay among all the key elements of particle science and
technology including particle synthesis, reactivity and mechanical properties, flow stability and contact
mechanics, gas-solid reaction engineering and fluidization. This presentation will describe the fundamental
and applied aspects of modern chemical looping technology that utilizes fossil and other carbonaceous
feedstock. Specifically, it will discuss the characteristics of fluidized bed and moving bed and their impact on
the metal oxide conversion in the reducer operation the key operation of the chemical looping processes.
The energy conversion efficiency and economics of the Coal-Direct Chemical Looping Process and Syngas
Chemical Looping Process being developed at Ohio State University based on the moving bed configuration
will also be elaborated.

Dr. Wei Wang is Professor of Institute of Process Engineering (IPE), Chinese Academy
of Sciences. has been working on multiscale modeling, computational fluid dynamics
(CFD) for multiphase flow and computerized tomography (CT) techniques for
multiphase flow systems. his method has been applied successfully for
troubleshooting/design in industrial processes of e.g. fluid catalytic cracking, coal
gasification and combustion, polyethylene polymerization, kaolinite clay calcination
and so on.
Speeding Up Reactive Modeling of Fluidized Bed Reactor by
Combining CRE and Multiscale CFD
The methanol to olefins (MTO) process, which is a promising alternative to produce light olefins from
coal resources, has been successfully commercialized in China by DICP. The design of MTO reactor borrows
ideas from the reaction-regeneration configuration of the modern fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) process, but
the fluidized bed for MTO reactions operates in the regime of bubbling or turbulent fluidization. The coke
content of catalyst is found to greatly affect the MTO reaction rate, but its conversion rate is slow and
normally takes hours prior to reaching desired level of content (about 6%~7%). The mean residence time of
solid catalysts is hence in orders of minutes or hours. Time-dependent computational fluid dynamics (CFD)
simulation of such a long process poses a big challenge to reactive multiphase flow modeling. To speed up it,
we try to combine the classic chemical reaction engineering (CRE) model with CFD. For example, the
continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) model is used to estimate the steady state distribution of coke
content, which is then set as the initial distribution for CFD simulation to shorten the time to reach steady
state of MTO reactors. Comparison with experimental data shows good agreement and also great speed up
ratio compared to pure CFD simulation.

Improve bubble size estimation by pressure fluctuation analysis in gas-fluidized beds
Pressure fluctuation signals captured at a single point in the gas-fluidized bed is composed by global
fast compression waves and local bubble-passage induced slow pressure waves. Based on the Davidson and
Harrison bubble model, the local bubble-passage induced slow wave has the amplitude proportional to the
size of bubbles, and can only be detected when the bubbles move close to the pressure measurement
points. In principle, if the local pressure wave can be separated from the global one, the information of
bubble size can be inferred accordingly. Van der Schaaf et al. proposed an interesting frequency decoupling
method to estimate bubble size in fluidized beds according to the different propagation velocity of the two
types of pressure waves. As the pressure signal in the windbox only contain the global pressure waves while
the in-bed pressure signals are a combination of the global pressure waves and the local bubble induced
ones, a coherence analysis between on the pressure series simultaneously detected in the bed and in the
windbox can be used to measure bubble size. This frequency decoupling method has now been widely used
in bubble size estimation. However, this method seemingly can only give a qualitative prediction of the
bubble size. No studies have been carried out so far to analyze the systematic deviation of bubble size
estimated from pressure fluctuation signals. In this study, we used an ECT system together with the
synchronized pressure sensors to study the inherent reasons for the deviation in bubble size measurement.

Enhanced Water-Gas Shift Reaction in the Presence of a Mg(OH)2 Slurry
in a High Pressure Aqueous System
This study investigated the integration of slurry phase Mg(OH)2 carbonation with the water gas shift
reaction (WGSR) at temperatures up to 215 oC with a 0.5 wt% platinum on alumina catalyst. The removal of
CO2 by the carbonation reaction enhanced hydrogen yield of the WGSR as the equilibrium of the gas phase
reaction was shifted towards products. Aqueous Mg(OH)2 carbonation has been shown to occur readily, and
various metastable and stable magnesium carbonates are formed depending on the reaction conditions
(primarily driven by temperature). This study revealed that the H2 yield was enhanced in the presence of
Mg(OH)2 slurry, and more interestingly the unexpected conversion of CO to aqueous formate ion was
observed, which did limit the overall production of H2. The presence of the basic aqueous phase within the
reactor promoted a side reaction between CO and hydroxide ions. The formate can persist in solution or
decompose to yield H2 depending on the solution conditions. The solid and liquid components of the
reacting slurry were carefully analyzed for carbonate and formate in order to investigate the reaction
mechanisms.

Development and applications of long wavelength BODIPY fluorescent dyes
BODIPY is one of the famous families of fluorescent dyes. BODIPY dyes take advantages of high
fluorescence quantum yields and high photostability over many other fluorescent dyes. Hence,
BODIPYs are popular in various fields. Especially, they are important fluorophores to develop molecular
probes or sensors extensively applied in life sciences. Recently years, BODIPYs have also found new
applications such as donor materials in thin-film solar cells. The limitation of most BODIPYs is the
relatively short wavelength excitation/emission, which is likely interfered by biological background
fluorescence and is also not favorable to match the solar light spectrum. Our group have rationally
developed a series of long wavelength (from red to NIR) BODIPY with tunable photophysical properties.
And we apply them in different ways, e.g. laser dyes, fluorescent probes, solar cells etc. In this
presentation, I would like to report these works.

Effect of Copolymer Composition on pH-Responsive Surface Wettability:
Identifying the Best Copolymer for Efficient Water/Oil Separation
Used polymer as case, this study aimed to fabricate reversible pH-responsive polymeric surfaces for
controllable wettability and to identify the best copolymer for water/oil separation from the chemical
product engineering viewpoint. To attain this aim, three block copolymers with different PAA segment
lengths were synthesized for the first time through Cu(0)-mediated reversible-deactivation radical
polymerization and hydrolysis reaction. pH-induced controllable surface wettability was achieved by spincoating the resulting block copolymers onto silicon wafers. Results showed that the pH-responsive wetting
behavior was introduced by incorporating the PAA block, and that the responsiveness of as-fabricated
surfaces was greatly influenced by PAA content. All three evolutions of water contact angle with pH shared
a similar inflection point at pH 5.25. Furthermore, a simple solution-casting technique was developed to
functionalize the stain steel meshes (SSMs) by using the as-prepared block copolymers to separate layered
water/oil mixtures.

Carbon Recycling to Produce Valuable Commodities
LanzaTech offers an innovative biosynthesis approach and has developed and scaled a complete
process platform to allow the continuous biological production of fuels and an array of chemical
intermediates from gases at scale. Exceptional feedstock flexibility and metabolic diversity make
LanzaTech’s gas fermenting microbe unique. The ability to utilize gases relies on a unique redox chemistry
and energy conservation mechanisms that are not possible in standard hosts as E. coli or yeast. In order to
maximize the value that can be added to the array of gas resources that the LanzaTech process can use as
an input, the company has developed a robust genetic toolbox to allow the carbon and energy consumed by
its proprietary gas fermenting microbe to be channeled into a spectrum of valuable chemicals. This has
allowed LanzaTech to develop chassis strains with optimized production and multiple proprietary strains for
synthesis of non-natural products via novel routes. LanzaTech has demonstrated synthesis of over 25 new
products from gas fermentation, including fuels ethanol or platform chemicals as 2,3-Butanediol (2,3-BDO),
a four-carbon alcohol that can be catalytically converted to bio butadiene.

New alkylation process-Composite Ionic Liquid Alkylation(CILA)
Chloroaluminate ionic liquids (ILs) [1] were discovered as potential alternatives for the traditional isobutane
alkylation catalysts (HF and H2SO4). A composite ionic liquid (CIL) developed by China University of
Petroleum[2] shows good catalytic performance for isobutane alkylation.The first commercial 100 kt/a CILA
plant was succesfully started-up in 2013 in Shandong by Deyan Chemical Co., Ltd.. Thus far, the plant has
been running stably over two years. This plant includes four sections, namely feed treatment, staged
reactors, reactor refrigeration and product treatment. In addition, this plant also has CIL handling facilities to
enable solids removal and CIL regeneration. The typical composition of C4 feed during this time is listed in
Table 1. The result showed that: the olefin conversion was 100%; the alkylate yield was 80% of feed; the
average RON of alkylate was 96.8; the catalyst consumption per ton alkylate was 5 kg; the energy
consumption per ton alkylate was 150 kgEO. Table 2 shows the typical mass balance of the plant. It shows
that the CILA plant has safety and environmental benefits compared with HF and H2SO4 alkylation
processes.

Coal based processes development and integration for better resource utilization
and less environmental impacts
In this presentation, Multi-dimensional technical-economical-environmental-social models are built for
quantitative sustainability and life cycle assessment of alternative coal processes from feedstock, to
production, market, and recycling; to rationalize the decision-making on resource allocation and process
design; and finally, to raise efficiency and minimize environmental impacts of existing and potential
alternative coal based processes. A number of coal gasification syngas derived energy and chemical product
chains are taken as benchmark cases in this work. With integration and optimization of the mass and energy
network, coal based processes with higher CO2 capture rate and higher CO2 purity for commercial use could
improve environmental and economic performance a lot.

Yuan’s research interests are in the areas of mass transfer in chemical processes,

and fluid dynamics for chemical engineering.
Computational mass transfer approach to chemical process simulation
In the present presentation, two kinds of theoretical models, namely: isotropic model and anisotropic
model, for convective mass transfer in multiphase turbulent flow systems are summarized. In the isotropic
model, a two-equation model is proposed based on the Boussinesq hypothesis to calculate the turbulent
diffusivity. While in the anisotropic model, a Reynolds mass flux model is derived, and the assumption of an
isotropic turbulent diffusivity introduced by the Boussinesq postulation can be eliminated. Then,
computational mass transfer approach is developed based on the theoretical models. The proposed
approach is finally validated by simulating chemical processes including distillation and fluidized bed
reaction. The advantages of the proposed method in avoiding empirical parameters utilization, like in some
traditional methods, and some other features are discussed.

Big Data Process Analytics
In normally-operated engineering systems where processes, units, and equipment are designed with specific
purposes, mechanistic models and first-principles are dependable. However, for the operation of emerging or
abnormal situations that are not anticipated in the design, operation data become indispensable assets for the
decision-making in safe and efficient operations. In this talk we offer a perspective on the essence of process
data analytics, how data have been effectively used in process operations and control, and new perspectives on
how process systems operations might evolve to a paradigm of data-enhanced operations and control. The
discussed perspectives include i) mining of time series data for event discovery, decision-making, and causality
analysis; ii) exploring the power of new machine learning techniques that have enjoyed tremendous
development in nearly two decades; and iii) anticipating a system architecture shift towards a data-friendly
information system.

Optimization of recirculating cooling water systems with
coupling cooler and pump networks
Re-use of cooling water between different coolers has been proved to be an effective way to reduce
flowrate of cooling water. However, the coolers with series configurations require a higher pressure head of the
corresponding branch pipe, which may result in more pump power needed. On the other hand, the pumps for
transporting cooling water from a cooling tower to each cooler traditionally are installed in the header line of
the feed pipe, constituting main pump network. The pressure head of the main pumps must be large enough to
satisfy heat loads and pressure heads of all coolers. The pressure drop of parallel branch pipes must be balanced
by turning down the opening of valves for some coolers, which causes energy penalty of pumps. In order to
minimize power consumption, a novel methodology is proposed to simultaneously consider pump arrangement
in the pump network and cooling water reuse exploration in the cooler network. The total annualized cost of
cooling water systems is taken as the objective function. A superstructure of cooling water systems is developed
to consider the interactions between the performance of pumps and the design of cooler network.

Molecular Modeling, Screening, and Design of Metal-organic Frameworks for Gas
Storage and Separation Applications
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are an interesting class of nanoporous materials synthesized in a
“building-block” approach from inorganic nodes and organic linkers. Some of the most intensively studied
applications are related to solving energy and environmental problems, including hydrogen and natural gas
storage for cleaner vehicles, capture of CO2 from power plant exhaust, and energy efficient separations.
Because of the predictability of MOF synthetic routes and the nearly infinite number of possible structures,
molecular modeling is an attractive tool for screening new MOFs before they are synthesized. Modeling can
also provide insight into the molecular-level details that lead to observed macroscopic properties. This talk
will illustrate how molecular modeling and high-throughput computational screening can be used to
discover, develop, and ultimately design new MOFs for desired gas adsorption applications.

From First Principles to Fluid Phase Equilibria
The knowledge of thermodynamic properties of fluids is critical for the design, development, and
optimization of relevant chemical processes. However, the collection of such data via experimental
approaches can be very time-consuming or even impractical in some areas, such as drug discovery where
properties of thousands to millions of chemicals are investigated. Recent advances in the quantum physical
and quantum chemical theories open up possibilities to obtain these important properties without resorting
to any experimental measurement. However, there are challenges remain such as the need for
overwhelming computational resources for industrial problems and the insufficient chemical accuracy for
phase equilibrium predictions. In this talk, we present approximate methods for fluid property predictions
that utilize results from quantum chemical solvation calculations. The method we have developed is general
and can be used to determine all aspects of properties of a chemical or a mixture of chemicals under almost
any conditions.

Reaction and Diffusion on Supported Metal Nanocatalysts
Supported noble metal catalysts have played an important role in the conversion of energy and resources.
During the recent years, we have systematically investigated: (1) The diffusion and reaction on hydrophobic
carbon and hydrophilic TiO2 supported noble metal catalysts by means of density functional theory
calculations and molecular dynamics simulations. Size effect has been regularly utilized to tune the catalytic
activity and selectivity of metal nanoparticles(NPs). At present, it is still a computational challenge to directly
simulate the catalytic properties over different sizes of metal nanoparticles. Therefore, a simple method to
describe the relationship between the noble metal particle size and catalytic properties is developed. (2)
The preparation of different size Pd catalysts s on carbon and TiO2 by the controlling the interaction
between metal and support. (3) The application of Pd/C nanocatalysts on halogenated nitrobenzene

Structure-Property Relationship in Ionic Liquids
A systematic property database are established by us and near 4000 ILs are contained. The new
thermodynamic models based on the ionic fragment contribution-corresponding states (FCCS) are
developed to predict the physicochemical properties of ILs and phase equilibrium of IL-containing mixtures.
The contribution values of io、nic fragment can be expected to be estimated by quantum chemistry (QC)
method. In structural investigation, the non-covalent interactions are the underlying aspect in determining
the properties of ILs. Based on the QC calculation, it is found that the hydrogen bond is very critical to
pairing, packing and assembly, although the electrostatic force was stronger ions. The properties such as
melting point, viscosity and enthalpy are correlated with the hydrogen bond forces. The force fields of new
ILs were developed and the properties of density, viscosity, conductivity and so on were predicted by
molecular dynamic (MD) simulation. It is found that the nano-clusters in some ILs induce the charge
redistribution and the aggregation of polar-heads. The clusters are changeable dynamically and show rodlike
and vesicle structures with the different concentrations.

Population balance modeling: A ubiquitous tool for engineering analysis
Although the earliest use of population balances dates back to the days of Boltzmann, its status as a
ubiquitous modeling tool in engineering has come about only in relatively recent times. In particular, while
its importance began with conventional areas such as in modeling the behavior of commonly occurring
dispersed phase systems, its role in enabling extension to many modern exotic applications has been
spectacular. It is the purpose of this talk to expound the basic tenets of population balances with examples
drawn from traditional and current areas of application towards their further exploration.

Multiscale Simulation Designed Synthesis of Nanostructured Porous Materials in
Chemical Engineering
It has become increasingly clear that hydrogen as a viable energy carrier may play an important role in
future energy plans. However, development of reasonably safe and reversible hydrogen storage materials
for transportation is still a great challenge. In this work, we present the scheme of designing novel
materials and address the multiscale simulation method, in which the first-principles calculation is
performed to calculate the interaction energy between adsorbate and adsorbent, and then the interaction
is input to grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulation for evaluation of hydrogen storage capacities.12 By using the multiscale simulation method proposed, a series of novel materials are designed. These
materials include new carbon allotrope - diamondyne, silicon nanotube (SiNT), silicon Li12Si60H60 fullerene,
Li-doped covalent organic frameworks (COFs), Porous aromatic Frameworks (PAFs). Furthermore,
hydrogen storage capacities of these materials are also investigated. In addition, we also proposed a
targeted synthesis method to fabricate the nitrogen-doped graphene analogue materials for oxygen
reduce reaction (ORR), in which we used the well-defined 2D covalent organic polymers as targeted
template and then carbonized the targeted materials for in situ synthesis of nitrogen-doped porous
carbons. These synthesized porous carbons are excellent metal-free electrocatalysts for ORR.

Unified Framework of Multi-scale Density Functional Theories and
Its Recent Applications
Most chemical engineering processes involve complex multi-phase fluid systems, and their evolution
depends on the mechanism by which the inhomogeneous subsystems exchange information at
different length-scales. Whereas numerous theoretical methods with specific description accuracies
have been developed for investigating physicochemical properties of various fluid systems, a unified
theory that enables the investigation of mesoscale problems is still needed. In this talk, we present a
unified framework of multi-scale density functional theories (DFTs). In addition, the combinations of
those DFTs with each other and with other conventional theories and simulation approaches are also
discussed. Finally, general discussions on the up-to-date progress of DFTs and the expectations on their
further extensions are given.

Multiscale Simulations of Protein Adsorption
Protein adsorption plays an important role not only in a wide range of basic biological processes but also in
many applications such as protein chromatography, drug delivery on solid substrates, biosensors, biofuel
cells and biomaterials. For these processes and applications, one key issue is the orientation of adsorbed
proteins on surfaces. Another key issue that determines the activity of adsorbed proteins is their
conformation (i.e., how the conformation of the adsorbed protein resembles that of its native state). In this
talk, the protein orientation and conformation on charged surfaces are investigated by a hierarchical
approach, i.e., studied by colloidal, coarse-grained and all-atom models. It is found that the electric dipole
and hydrophobic dipole of adsorbed proteins play important roles in determining the protein orientation on
charged and hydrophobic surfaces.

simulation for nanoporous material applications. She is the project leader of two

Molecular simulations on nanoconfined fluid molecule behaviors
for nanoporous material applications
Nanoporous materials (e.g. membranes and catalysts) applications have been increasingly applied in energy
and environmental fields. Material performance is largely dependent on structure. Most applications of
nanostructured materials involve fluids. The properties of bulk fluids are independent of their
microstructure; hence, classical phase equilibrium and transfer mechanism based on the continuum model
can be applied. However, a decrease in the molecule number of fluids confined within the nanostructure
enhances the influence of material interfacial properties on fluid molecule behaviors. Thus, the properties
of nanoconfined fluids are different from those of bulk fluids. The behaviors and microstructures of
nanoconfined fluids are closely related, which make the continuum model frequently invalid at the
nanoscale. To establish the structure–property relationship of nanoporous materials, not only the structures
of materials themselves, but also the microstructures of nanoconfined fluids are required to be explored.
Our group carried on a series molecular simulation studies of nanoconfined fluid molecules behavior for
many years to understand what indeed we can learn from molecular simulations of nanoconfined fluid
molecule behaviors and how these understandings could promote the nanoporous material applications.

Microporous Inorganic Membranes for Conventional and Reactive Separations
Microporous inorganic membranes are attracting today substantial research interest due to their potential
for finding widespread use in a number of high-temperature conventional and reactive separation
applications of interest in the Energy field. In our group the emphasis has been on carbon molecular sieve
and SiC membranes. The preparation and characterization of these materials presents significant technical
challenges. Issues of membrane preparation, reproducibility, and robustness to the proposed application
environments remain of significant importance. In this talk, we will describe the techniques that we utilize
for the preparation and characterization of such microporous membranes. They involve a variety of surface
analytical techniques, TGA, and various chromatographic and mass spectrometric techniques useful for
characterizing the membrane structure, and its surface and bulk chemical composition. They are coupled to
transport and sorption experimental investigations, and molecular simulations of such processes. Combining
all these techniques helps to provide unique insight into the key factors that determine membrane
properties and performance. The use of these membranes in important reactive separations will be also
discussed.

Diffusion Entropic Activation Factors: Maxwell’s Demons at Work
Chemical Engineering separation research has a long history with connections to the thermodynamic
and transport phenomena pioneers in our discipline. Advanced materials have become increasingly
important as vehicles explore separation options, with increasing attention being paid to energy
efficiency and process carbon footprints. Gas separations are highly energy-intensive processes when
based upon a traditional phase-change paradigm such as distillation or sorption processes. Membranes
avoid this paradigm by integrating molecularly selective partitioning and diffusive discrimination
between components into a single device. This integrative ability can change the separations landscape
by offering a full order of magnitude lower energy-intensity compared to phase-change separation
approaches. The selective partitioning feature is understandable in terms of well-known
thermodynamic factors. On the other hand, engineering diffusion selectivity usually relies upon tuning
relative diffusion activation energies of permeating species within the membrane. Unfortunately,
higher relative diffusion activation energies between similar penetrants are correlated with higher
absolute diffusion activation energies for both components. This correlation creates a natural tradeoff
in which dramatically lower permeabilities are typically seen for highly selective membranes. A new
approach, tuning the diffusion activation entropy associated with size-similar penetrants can avoid
major productivity losses if done properly.

Carbon Dioxide Permeation Properties of Samarium-Doped-Ceria
Carbonatedual-phase membranes
High temperature CO2 perm-selective membranes can be used in a number of important separation
and reaction processes for hydrogen production or carbon capture. Oxygen ionic conducting metal
oxide and molten carbonate dual-phase membranes are the only membranes perm-selective to CO2 at
high temperatures with selectivity as high as 3000. This talk will discuss high temperature CO2
permeation properties of samarium doped ceria (SDC)-carbonate dual-phase membranes. Hermetic
SDC-carbonate membranes were prepared by infiltrating porous SDC ceramic support with Li/K/Na
molten carbonate. CO2 permeation/separation data for the SDC-carbonate membranes were then
obtained with either atmospheric or high pressure feed of CO2:N2 mixture or simulated syngas with
composition of 50% CO, 35% CO2, 10% H2, and 5% N2. The SDC-carbonate membranes exhibit CO2
permeation flux in the range of 0.2-0.8 mL(STP).cm-2.min-1 in 700-950oC with measured CO2 to N2
separation factor above 1000. CO2 permeation data through the SDC-carbonate membranes at
different upstream and downstream CO2 partial pressures were obtained.

Several points on gas-liquid-solid separation for ebullated bed resid hydrocracking
Resid hydrocracking has been attract more and more attention by the refining industry for this decades, and one of
the best approach is the ebullated bed resid hydrocracking (EBRH). STRONG ebullated bed resid hydrocracking uses a
new type of ebullated bed reactor, and a 50,000Tons/Year demonstration unit has been putting on operation now.
The crucial technology of STRONG is the gas-liquid-solid separation efficiently in the reactor. Several points on gasliquid-solid separation for the resid hydrocracking reactor has to be specially mentioned: 1. the mass transfer in the
system is very important, especially the gas-liquid mass transfer and liquid diffusion in catalyst particle pores. In
order to overcome the mass transfer difficulties, increase the gas hold-up ratio, decrease the gas bubble size and
catalyst particle size are preferred, but the problem of gas-liquid-solid separation will be enlarged quickly. 2.
controlling the system flow pattern is another important point, how to meet the needs for fully back mixing flow
while does not causing large size vortex flow, how to avoid the gas bubble quickly coalescence to become large
bubbles, how to maintain the three phase distributed in the reactor an even as possible, and so on. 3. the resid
hydrocracking is a sensitive process for the reactor system coking block up, especially in the phase separation system.
The three phase separator of STONG ebullated bed resid hydrocracking has solved the above problem satisfactorily,
and will described in this paper in detail.

Conjugated microporous polymer for water purification
Resid Oils, organic solvents, dyes, and heavy metal ions are primary pollutants in water resources. Currently, no
sorbent material can effectively remove these types of pollutants simultaneously. Here we report a perfluorous
conjugated microporous polymer with superhydrophobicity and a large surface area, which exhibits outstanding
adsorption capacities, kinetics, and recyclability for a wide range of organic solvents, oils, dyes, and heavy metal ions.
The adsorption capacities of this polymer, 1376.7 mg g-1 for Congo red, 808.2 mg g-1 for Pb(II) and 303.2 mg g-1 for
As(V), are higher than the adsorption capacities of any previously described porous materials. Our theoretical
calculation reveals that the superior properties of this polymer are due to fluorination and triple bonds within the
polymer. A benchmark experiment indicates that this polymer can efficiently remove these pollutants simultaneously.
Application of this polymer may lead to the development of next-generation reusable and portable water purification
appliances.

Mixed oxygen ionic-electronic conducting perovkite membrane
reactors for H2 separation
Mixed oxygen ionic-electronic conducting membrane was used as catalytic membrane reactor for
hydrogen separation to acquire high-purity hydrogen from steam and low-purity hydrogen. One side of
the membrane is exposed to steam atmosphere where water splits into hydrogen and oxygen ions at
high temperature, and the other side of the membrane is swept by low-purity hydrogen to react with
the oxygen ions permeated from the opposite side. Theoretically, hydrogen of 100 % purity can be
obtained from steam side after cooling and drying. With 80% H2/He balance as feeding gas, the
hydrogen separation rate of a 0.5-mm-thick BaCe0.05Fe0.95O3-δ membrane increased from 2.0 to 9.6 mL
cm-2 min-1 as the operation temperature was raised from 700 to 900 °C, which were two orders
higher than those of the mixed protonic-electronic conducting membranes at the same conditions.

New Scale-up Membranes for CO2 Capture and Separation
This presentation covers new scale-up carbon dioxide-selective membranes for (1) hydrogen
purification for fuel cells and (2) carbon capture from flue gas. We have synthesized carbon dioxideselective membranes by incorporating amino groups into polymer networks. The membranes have
shown high carbon dioxide permeability and selectivity vs. hydrogen, carbon monoxide and nitrogen.
The membranes were scaled up to fabricate 14-inch wide membranes by using a continuous roll-to-roll
machine equipped with a thin-film-coating assembly. Aided by a material balance equation, three
variables, including the coating knife gap setting, substrate rolling speed, and coating solution
concentration, were identified as the critical factors to control the membrane selective layer thickness.
For the CO2 separation from a synthesis gas stream containing CO2 and H2S, i.e., pre-combustion CO2
capture in IGCC (integrated gasification combined cycle) technology or hydrogen purification for fuel
cells, the thicker amine-containing membranes with around 15 ± 2 microns of selective layer
thicknesses were fabricated by using a gap setting of 17 mils, a rolling speed of 0.5 ft/min (set by the
drying capacity of the drier, i.e., its length), and an amine coating solution of 18 wt% solid
concentration. For the post-combustion CO2 capture from flue gas, the same thin-film-coating
assembly machine was used to fabricate thinner amine containing membranes with < 250 ± 20 nm of
selective layer thicknesses by using various rolling speeds and amine-containing solution concentrations
at a fixed gap setting of 0.45 mils.

Progress on removal NOx and VOCs by environmental catalysis
In this work, a series of MnO2 with various structures were prepared, and their catalytic activities were
evaluated for reduction of NOx and oxidation of VOCs. The preparation method affects the structure of
Mn-based catalyst, and the dispersion of active sites depends on concentration of the precursor
solution, and the final procedure of drying. Tunneled alpha-MnO2 had much higher catalytic activity
than other MnO2 under the same reaction conditions. Experiment results revealed that the surface
area was not the main factor to affect the NH3-SCR activities over the MnO2 nanorods and that the
activities were structure sensitive. The crystal structure and surface properties of alpha-MnO2 are more
suitable to the adsorption of NH3 and activation of NH3 and NOx, which accounts for the higher
catalytic activity of the alpha-MnO2 nanorods. 1D-MnO2, 2D-MnO2 and 3D-MnO2 with different
structures were successfully synthesized. The decrease order of the activity of ethanol oxidation on
different MnO2 catalysts is 3D-MnO2 > 2D-MnO2 > 1D-MnO2, which is consistent with the sequences of
some factors such as surface areas, Mn4+ cations species, surface active oxygen species and reducibility.
3D-MnO2 has the best catalytic property of ethanol oxidation due to the special 3D pore channel
structure, larger specific surface area, better low-temperature reducibility, more abundant active
surface oxygen species and sufficient active Mn4+ cationic species.

Formation of pores in polymeric membranes --a thermodynamically or kinetically controlled process
It is well known that the thermodynamic stability of casting solution plays an important role in phase
separation and the formation of membrane pores. However, phase separation may need time to occur,
which makes kinetics also important. For example, phase separation via the mechanism of nucleation
and growth may not occur if there is not enough time for the nuclei to form; similarly, a polymer
solution with a composition in the crystallization region (can crystallize thermodynamically) may not
crystallize if not enough time is given for the crystalline nuclei to occur. Therefore, kinetic factors
influencing the time given for the nuclei to occur and the rate of nuclei forming can also play important
roles in the formation of membrane pores. We will show how the mass transport during membrane
formation and the entanglement of polymer chains are important kinetic factors in controlling
membrane morphology. Insight into these kinetic factors is important in understanding the formation
of membrane pores.

Lessons from a (half) career in academic leadership
It is almost a truism that junior faculty are often thrown into the classroom with little formal preparation in
teaching. It is also the case that those taking on positions of academic leadership at the department chair
and similar levels receive little preparation for their new responsibilities. The author has served in a variety
of academic leadership positions, from center and institute director, to department chair, to university
central administration, and will share experiences and thoughts about the lessons learned along the way.

Globalization Initiatives in Chemical Engineering Education at Zhejiang University
Adapting to the rapid globalization of post-secondary education is a great challenge for engineering
programs in China, but the removal of boundaries separating educational institutions also provides
significant opportunities. Increasing international collaborations and the global flow of research talent
allows institutions to enhance their exposure and influence, and recalibrate both their undergraduate and
graduate engineering education. Zhejiang University (ZJU) is strongly committed to maintaining its
reputation as a top tier chemical engineering program both nationally and internationally. To achieve this
objective, ZJU has enacted several outreach approaches to facilitate interactions with some of the best
engineering institutions, educators, and researchers in the world. In this presentation, an update on these
efforts is provided. This will include a review of our most promising initiatives such as (1) design of
programs facilitating formation of long-term collaborations with internationally recognized institutions; (2)
participation in major international meetings and conferences through presentations and the hosting of
receptions; (3) arrangement of lectures, special courses, and long-term visits from international scholars;
and (4) development of summer research exchange programs, which facilitates the placements of ZJU
students at various universities around the world and supports the visit of international students.
