Learn more about Junwang Tang
Professor Junwang (John) Tang is a Member of the Academy of Europe, a Royal Society Leverhulme Trust Senior Research Fellow, a Fellow of the European Academy of Sciences, a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry, a Fellow of IMMM and an Honorary Fellow of CCS. He was the Director of UCL Materials Hub and Chair of Materials Chemistry and Engineering in the Department of Chemical Engineering at UCL. He is currently the Founding Director of the Industrial Catalysis Center in the Department of Chemical Engineering and Chair Professor of Materials Chemistry and Catalysis at Tsinghua University, China and a Visiting Professor at University College London, UK.
Tang is one of the pioneers to couple photons with phonons for small molecule activation to produce zero-carbon fuels (eg. H2O to H2, N2 to NH3) and valuable chemicals (CO2 to alcohols and CH4 to long chain hydrocarbons) as well as microwave catalysis (e.g. chemical plastic recycling), together with the investigation of the underlying charge dynamics and kinetics by state-of-the-art spectroscopic, resulting in >250 papers published in Nature Energy, Nature Catalysis, Nature Materials, Nature Sustainability, Nature Review Materials, Chemical Reviews etc. He is also Editor / Editor-in-Chief / Associate Editor of 5 journals, including Applied Catalysis B, Chinese Journal of Catalysis, and EES Solar. Prof. Tang has received many awards, the latest of which are the 2022 IChemE Oil and Gas Global Awards (Methane conversion), 2021 IChemE Andrew Medal (due to his contribution to heterogeneous catalysis), the RSC Corday-Morgan Prize 2021 (due to innovative photocatalysts discovered), 2021 Royal Society-Leverhulme Trust Senior Research Fellowship and 2021 IChemE Innovative Product Award (thanks to successful microwave technology transfer).
