Biography:

Theresearch interest of Prof. Sun is focused on the electro-activationof O2under room condition. A series of achievements have been acquired inthe exploitation of advanced electrochemical air oxidation technologyfor development of energy-efficient wastewater treatment and resourcerecovery from environmental pollutants. The idea by using electricfield to induce the activation of O2has been proposed and confirmed, and novel electrocatalytic wet airoxidation and electro-Fenton like technologies have been developedfor effective and energy-efficient treatment of environmentalpollutants; In-situ resource recovery from acid mine drainage hasbeen realized by taking advantage of air-cathode fuel cell technologyand theory basis of the technology has been established; Microbialfuel cell technology has been developed for enhanced degradation ofwater-soluble polymers. These works have been extensively introducedand recommended by famous researchers on top magazines in the fieldof environment, engineering and electrochemistry. Prof. Sun is leaderof 3 National Natural Science Fund Project, 1 NSFC-JSPS sub-projectand 1 National Key R&D Program project, and the winner of Programfor New Century Excellent Talents in University, Anhui ProvincialFunds for Distinguished Young youths. Prof. Sun has published morethan 60 papers and been authorized more than invention patents.Notably, Two reviewers have been published on ChemicalSociety Reviews（backcover）和Progressin energy and Combustion Science.
