My research interests are topics of energy conversion and its fundamentals, especially for the solid fuels such as coal.
How does the traditional energy system work and what can we do to improve its efficiency and environmental performance? What achievement can we make to live a sustainable life with the nature? The idea can be IGCC, can be oxy-combustion, can be green-energy, can be any detail and systematic technology and institution innovations to today's energy system.
You are welcome to discuss anything we are interested in common by email, please see my research programs and more in this website.
