Expertise:
Xiaodong has recently been appointed as a Senior Lecturer in Chemical Engineering at Lancaster University (September 2019). Prior to this, he was a Lecturer in Chemical Engineering at the University of Aberdeen (2015-2019), Postdoctoral Research Associate at Heriot-Watt University, where he also obtained his PhD (2014). He completed both MSc and BEng studies in Tianjin University (2002-2009, China). Xiaodongâs research interests range from reaction engineering, renewable energy and chemicals to materials, where catalysis (heterogeneous and enzymatic) is the core discipline. Of particular interest is the system of tandem and cascade catalysis. He has co-authored over 40 peer-reviewed publications and his work has been funded mainly by The Royal Society, EPSRC (UK Catalysis Hub), The Carnegie Trust for the Universities of Scotland and Industry.
