Heterogeneous Catalysis for Sustainable Energy

Landong Li is Professor in the School of Materials Science and Engineering at Nankai University, China. After his PhD from Nankai University, he started his research in environmental catalysis at Research Center for Eco-environmental Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China. In 2009, he moved back to Nankai University, where he was promoted to full professor in 2014. His research interest focuses on heterogeneous catalysis, with emphasize on energy and environmental applications. He received the National Science Fund for Excellent Young Scholars in 2017. He has published more than 100 scientific publications and invented 20 patents in catalysis.Justin Hargreaves is currently Professor of Catalytic Materials Chemistry at the University of Glasgow, UK. He obtained his undergraduate degree in Chemistry at the University of Liverpool, UK in 1987 which was followed by his PhD, also from the University of Liverpool, in 1990. His current research interests include N2 activation, metal oxide, carbide, nitride, phosphide and boride catalysts, zeolite catalysis, alkane activation and the application of large scale wastes as resources for the preparation of catalytic materials.
