Shanghai University, M.S. in Environmental Engineering
Shanghai University, B.S. in Environmental Engineering
Research
Dr. Liu's research program is focused on energy and resource recovery from fossil fuel (e.g. coal, natural gas) and renewable resources (e.g. biomass, wastewater biosolids, municipal and industrial waste streams) using both physicochemical and thermochemical methods.
The core topics in his research program are 1) Thermochemical conversion and fuel synthesis; 2) Synergistic waste treatment; 3) CO2 capture and utilization; 4) Waste-based material synthesis and application.
