Abstract

Dr. Wang is a Senior Lecturer in Chemical Engineering at Lancaster University. Prior to this, he was a Lecturer in Chemical Engineering at the University of Aberdeen, Postdoctoral Research Associate at Heriot-Watt University, where he also obtained his PhD (2014). He completed both MSc and BEng studies at Tianjin University. Wang has been the author of over 50 peer-reviewed publications, an editorial board member of Chinese Chemical Letters and his research has mainly been funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), Royal Society, UK Catalysis Hub and industry. Wang’s research interest ranges from reaction engineering, green energy and materials to chemicals, where heterogeneous catalysis is the core discipline. His recent work has focused on the innovative use of heterogeneous catalysts (e.g., supported metals) in enzymatic transformations via cofactor regeneration, paving the way to a potential new regeneration technology.
