Presentation title: Basic Theoretical Research on Hydrogen Metallurgy
Dr. Xionggang Lu received a bachelor’s degree and a PhD in Metallurgical Physical Chemistry from University of Science and Technology Beijing (USTB) in 1992 and 1998, respectively. He subsequently completed postdoctoral training in Ferrous Metallurgy at Shanghai University from 1998 to 2000, after which he joined Shanghai University and was a professor at School of Materials Science and Engineering. Now he is the director of the Center for Hydrogen Metallurgy Technology at Shanghai University. His current research interests broadly fall in the field of “Low-carbon Metallurgy”, including basic theory of low-carbon metallurgy, process control of metal purification using a short process and application and demonstration of low-carbon metallurgical technology. He has presided more than 30 projects, including the "973" and "863" programs of the Ministry of Science and Technology of China, the projects of National Natural Science Foundation of China, and the "Carbon Peak and Carbon Neutrality" project of Shanghai Science and Technology Commission. He has been granted over 70 invention patents, published over 500 academic papers in several renowned journals and four monographs. The total number of citations is over 5000.
