I obtained Ph.D in 1996 in Chemical Engineering from Zhejiang University, China. After working in Hangzhou Water Treatment Technology Development Center, State Oceanic Administration. The Center is the supporting unit of National Engineering and Technological Research Center for Liquid Separation Membrane and a base for the national membrane sector. I had studied membrane separation technology, including membrane material, membrane preparation, sea water desalination by reverse osmosis, etc. In 2007, I came to Zhejiang Gongshang University. My current research interests on hybrid organic-inorganic membranes for gas separation, pervaporation, water and wastewater treatment.

I is the coordinator of many national projects and the author of more than 80 scientific papers. I also has 12 patents.
