Shu-Yuan Pan Author & Editor

Pen-Chi Chiang is a Distinguished Professor of Graduate Institute of Environmental Engineering, National Taiwan University, and a Director of Carbon Cycle Research Center of National Taiwan University. He obtained Ph.D. degree from the Department of Civil Engineering, Purdue University, USA in 1982. Among his current interests is CO₂ capture and utilization by mineralization using various alkaline wastes. He worked on developing innovative process for mineralization such as slurry reactor, autoclave, and rotating packed bed. Along the way, the critical issues on CO₂ mineralization research, such as process chemistry, reaction kinetics, mass transfer, energy consumption and cost-effective analyses, have been comprehensively studied. Meanwhile, the developed CO₂ mineralization process has been applied into steelmaking and petrochemical industries in Taiwan. On the other hand, he worked on establishment of policies and strategies for deploying CO₂-related technologies in Taiwan. Dr. Chiang has published > 200 paper papers in the above area since 1990.

Shu-Yuan Pan is a Research Associate in Carbon Cycle Research Center, National Taiwan University. He received his Ph.D. degree in environmental engineering from National Taiwan University in 2017. He had worked as a visiting scholar in RWTH Aachen University, Germany in 2014, and Argonne National Laboratory, USA in 2015. Pan was named the Green Talents of the Year (2013) by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) of Germany. He is a professional engineer (PE) in environmental engineering licensed in Taiwan since 2012. Among his current interests is development of accelerated carbonation process and high-gravity technique. He also worked on system optimization using 3E (Engineering, Environment, Economy) analysis for energy-related process from a life-cycle point of view. In addition, he is recently working on electrochemical process for CO₂ capture and water reuse. Along the way, he has published >25 papers in reputed SCI journals and 1 contributed book chapter.
