Biography
I have over 20 years’ industrial experience in the areas of hazardous waste management waste recycling and energy from waste. During my time in industry, I involved in the development of various technologies in waste incineration and waste management. I have been involved in the construction and commissioning of many recycling projects in China, Japan, Belgium, the USA and UK. I have extensive knowledge of the application of research and practical engineering. I have, experience in particle separation technologies for WEEE recycling, vibration separation and pneumatic separation. I have a special interest in the use of recycled plastics in manufacturing. I started my PhD at the University of Nottingham in 2003, Closed Loop Recycling of CRT glass, following this I was made an European Innovation Fellow and was part of an Industrial Innovation Fund to achieve industrialization of this technology. I have continued research in waste recycling since he joined University of Nottingham Ningbo China. I have collaborated with local government and industries in various projects for the development of novel technologies for waste recycling.
Research Interest
focus on resource recovery of waste materials and novel energy saving systems. Recovery of waste electronic and electrical equipment using vibrational and pneumatic separation systems. The use of recycled plastics in manufacturing. Novel methods for the separation of waste plastics. Clean in place of hydraulic pipe systems using swirl flow. The use of swirl flow in pneumatic pipelines.
