Persulfate-based Oxidation Processes in Environmental Remediation

Dr. Mingshan Zhu has published 110 papers in peer-reviewed journals including 85 papers as the first author or corresponding author (J. Am. Chem. Soc., Angew. Chem., Appl. Catal. B., Water Res....). The total citations of all papers are over 5254 times based on Google Scholar data (4/29/2020). His research is focused on advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), and photocatalysis for energy and environmental applications. Dr. Zhu graduated with a doctorate from Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Science (ICCAS). After that, he worked as a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Toronto in Canada (2014-2015) and as a JSPS at Osaka University in Japan (2015-217). In 2018, he joined the School of Environment, Jinan University (Guangzhou, China) to be a full professor.
