    Thomas Upcraft PhD reseracher

    Introduction

    Having studied Chemical Engineering as an undergraduate student at Imperial College London, spending a year abroad at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands, Tom is now pursuing a PhD in the Centre for Process Systems Engineering (CPSE) in the Department of Chemical Engineering. Tom’s research focuses on multi-scale systems modelling of bio-based products derived from lignocellulosic biomass as an effort to optimise the biorefinery through multi-objective optimisation (MOO) across sub-systems, ranging from choice of process technology to value-chain optimization. Tom’s research further includes the study of phytoremediation (soil remediation of heavy metals through the use of certain plants) and looks to optimise phytoremediation strategies through plant choice dependent on biomass yield, soil heavy metal removal across spatial and temporal and its intergration with downstream processing of the biomass for economic recuperation from conversion to bioproducts.

    Introduction

    I held a BSc degree on Applied Chemistry with a double-diploma in Marketing from China, and doing my MSc study in Imperial now. My current research project mainly focus on nano-silica functionalization for a certain environmental problem. To be specific, it is to make the nano-silica superhydrophobic via modifying its surface for the oil and water separation, where lab work and computational modelling will be combined.

    Intro

    Hey guys! My name is Yi Zhou and I’m currently studying Advanced Chemical Engineering at Imperial College. I did my undergraduate at University of Nottingham and also in Chemical Engineering.

    I come from Hangzhou, a very beautiful city in southeast China, where I spent one of my greatest times before I came to UK for my university life.

    Besides study, I go to gym regularly and I play quite good in badminton. I also love watching movies, series and among all I have watched, Game of Thrones is my favourite.

    Overall, I’m an outgoing person and easy to get along with and hope to meet you guys in person soon.
