Doris Ying Ying Tang

About

Dr. Doris Tang Ying Ying has obtained her Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) of Chemical and EnvironmentalEngineering from University of Nottingham Malaysia in 2023 and Bachelor Degree's in Biomedical Science (with distinction) from University of Malaya (UM) Malaysia in 2019. She embarked on her academic journey in 2023 as a research engineer at NGLTech Sdn. Bhd with the project titled "AlgaeBloom Pilot Setup: Cultivating Microalgae Under Pressurized Conditions and Enhancing Microalgae Growth." This project involved a collaborative effort with interdisciplinary teams to explore the potential applications of microalgae in capturing carbon dioxide. She is currently working as postdoctoral fellow at Khalifa University, Abu Dhabi.

Her research interests are on the use of algal biotechnology to create affordable and environmentally friendly processes for the synthesis of functional components from the microorganisms for food and pharmaceutical products. Since her PhD study, she explores several microalgae-related aspects, including cultivation techniques and extraction of various biomolecules from different microalgae species. She focuses on the system optimization in extraction of lipase from microalgae, characterization study of microalgae species for pharmaceutical and biofuel application and dechlorophyllization of microalgae crude oil. She also worked on the use of microalgae to develop renewable energy, for example biodiesel (biofuel).
