Huancong Shi is an Associate Professor at Huzhou Institute of Zhejiang University. He received a BS from Fudan University in 2004, an MS from the University of Regina in 2007, and a PhD from the University of Regina in 2014. He previously served as a senior engineer at SaskPower, a power company in Canada. He is a Guest Editor for journals, such as Environmental Science Pollution Research, Catalysts, and others. His research interests include carbon capture technology, CO2 absorption, CO2 desorption, catalytic absorption and desorption, nitrosamine generation control, and photocatalytic material degradation of antibiotics.
Prof. Paitoon Tontiwachwuthikul obtained his B.A. in Political Science (Public Administration) from Ramkhaeng University in 1983, his B.Eng. in Chemical Engineering from King Monkut’s Institute of Technology in 1983, his M.Eng. in Chemical Engineering from UBC in 1986, and his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the University of British Columbia in 1991. He is now a Full Professor in the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science at the University of Regina, Canada, where he was the Dean from 1999–2013. He is the co-founder of the Clean Energy Technology Research Institute in Canada. He is also the Honorary Director of the Joint International Center for CO2 Capture and Storage at Hunan University, China. He is one of the main organizers of an international consortium on low carbon and clean energy technologies. He is a key international researcher in advanced CO2 capture and separation from industrial gas streams as well as low-carbon energy development. His research topics mainly include new technologies for CO2 recovery, production, and utilization (including greenhouse gas control technologies), high-efficiency processes for gas separation and purification, industrial pollution prevention and control (including energy and environmental issues), heat and mass transfer with chemical reactions, industrial corrosion prevention and control, intelligent and knowledge-based systems development, and the modeling, simulation, control, and optimization of industrial processes.
