Basic Information

She began to work at Beijing University of Technology from July 2019, after got Ph.D degree at Zhejiang University. She devotes herself to the research of technologies and evaluation related to environmental remediation and pollution prevention as well as life cycle assesment and other environmental models, including green materials research and selection, solid waste recycling and environmental evaluation, soil-water protection policy and big data analysis. At present, she has presided national projects such as the National Natural Science Foundation of China, the sub-project of the National Key Research and Development Program (2 projects), China Association for Science and Technology think tank talent project, Beijing Natural Science Foundation (general programme) and some other projects entrusted by enterprises and institutions. She has published more than twenty papers in international top journals such as Science of The Total Environment, Global Change Biology, Biology and Fertility of Soils, Journal of Hazardous Materials, Journal of Environmental Management, Elementa-Science of the Anthropocene etc. She has made academic reports or served as a judge in important domestic and foreign resource and environmental materials conferences such as Asian low-carbon technology, green remediation materials, biological information, waste management and resource recycling. She has established long-term academic cooperation with internationally renowned universities or institutes in the field of resource-environment-materials interdisciplinary field, including the University of Edinburgh, the University of Sydney, the University of California, etc.
