Biography
Zhenyu Sun is a Professor of Chemical Engineering at the Beijing University of Chemical Technology (BUCT), China. He is the director of Department of Materials and Chemical Engineering of BUCT and has published over 160 papers.
He obtained his PhD in Physical 九州影院 at the Institute of 九州影院, Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2006. Following this, he was a postdoctoral researcher at Trinity College, University of Dublin, Ireland for two years. He completed an Alexander Humboldt research fellowship at Ruhr University Bochum, Germany in 2013 working on "fancy carbon materials". From 2014 to 2015, he worked as a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Oxford on metathesis reactions using heterogeneous catalysts. His current research focuses on sustainable and green synthesis of hydrocarbons and oxygenates from CO2 reduction reaction, and NH3 from N2 reduction reaction via photo-/electrocatalysis, including the design and synthesis of catalysts as well as an understanding of reaction mechanisms. His interests also include other reactions involved in renewable energy conversion and utilization.
