Xingxing Cheng

Shandong University, China

Brief introduction: Xingxing Cheng, PhD, Professor. Prof. Cheng’s research interests are mainly gaseous pollution control, biomass processing and hydrogen technologies. She invented a novel technology of decoupled catalytic NOx reduction by CO, developed the required catalysts and designed the reactor. This technology was widely desired for flue gas treatment of steel, coking, and chemical industry due to its high sustainability and extremely low investment and operation cost. It could well meet the energy saving demand in the low carbon era. She has published more than 70 papers and has more than 20 patents authorized.
