About
Heng Zhao received his Ph.D. degree from Wuhan University of Technology majored in Material Science and Engineering in 2019. He worked as a GRI CFREF funded post-doctoral researcher in the department of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering at University of Calgary under the guidance of Dr. Jinguang Hu and Prof. Zhangxing Chen from 2019 to 2023. Currently, he is an Assistant Professor in the college of engineering of Eastern Institute for Advanced Study, Eastern Institute of Technology. His research mainly focuses on the design and synthesis of functional catalysts for sustainable hydrogen and value-added bio-products co-production from biomass photoreforming, small molecules conversion including CO2, CH4, CH3OH, N2 etc.
