Research
(1) Environmental fate of organic pollutants and the formation mechanism of non-extractable residues;
(2) Environmental behavior, bioaccumulation and toxicity of engineered nanomaterials and micro-nano plastics;
(3) Impact of rising atmospheric CO2 concentration on the behavior and effects of pollutants in the Earth’s Critical Zone;
(4) Biological and chemical remediation of contaminated soil and waters.

Biography
Deputy Director of National Engineering Research Centre for Organic Pollution Control and Resource Reuse; Professor of environmental science, Chemistry in training with Ph.D. in microbial ecology (Konstanz University, Germany). Our team have published > 100 papers on high impact scientific journals, e.g., Nature Nanotechnol., Nature Geosci., Nature Commun., Environ. Sci. Technol., Water Res., Soil Biol. Biochem. More than 40 projects have been granted, including international projects supported by EU FP7 and H2020 projects, as well as Sino-German, Sino-Swiss, Sino-British, Sino-U.S., Sino-Finnish and Sino-Czech international cooperation projects.
What You Can Expect in the Project
(1) Fate and distribution of organic pollutants in complex environmental matrices (e.g. soil, sediments, activated sludge, wastewaters, constructed wetlands): mineralization, metabolites, and residues by means of isotope labeled technique.
(2) Analysis of non-extractable residues (bound residues) of organic pollutants in environmental matrices (soil, sediment, sludge) and in organisms (plants, animals): formation mechanisms, bioavailability, and stability.
(3) (Bio)Remediation of soil and ground water (contaminated with organic and heavy metals) using animals, plants, and microorganisms.
Application Specific Requirements
Basic knowledge of Environmental Science.
