Dr Chichi Zhang is a postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Chemical and Process Engineering (CAPE) at the University of Canterbury, New Zealand, where she conducts research on CO2-storing iron-based cement. She received her PhD from CAPE, University of Canterbury and Bachelor’s degree in Materials Science and Engineering from Tongji University, China. She specialises in advanced materials characterisation and engineering with publications in prestigious scientific journals such as Energy and International Journal of Hydrogen Energy.

Dr. Yazdani obtained his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the National University of Singapore through a collaborative program with the Institute of Sustainability for Chemicals, Energy, and Environment. During his doctoral studies, he developed stable heterogeneous catalysts for the sustainable production of glycols from biomass. Since joining the Laboratory for Chemical Technology at Ghent University in 2019, where he is now a senior scientist, his research has focused on catalyst design for the production of light olefins via CH4 and CO2 conversion and plastic pyrolysis, with particular emphasis on scaling up catalytic processes.

Hassan Imran Masud is a postgraduate from School of Chemical Engineering at Adelaide University, graduating Master’s of Chemical Engineering. In his master’s degree, Hassan investigated the performance of catalysts and reactor design in hydrogen production through ammonia decomposition using computational methods. He is currently a Ph.D candidate with a focus on investigating and developing new economically and environmentally sustainable processes to pretreat lithium ion batteries for recycling.
