Summary
Tian is a research associate in the group of Professor Camille Petit at the Department of Chemical Engineering, Imperial College London.
Tian is currently working on an ERC project focuses on designing porous boron nitride (BN) for CO2 photoreduction. His works involves materials synthesis and characterisation. He also works on a Leverhulme Trust project looking at monolithic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) composite for CO2 photoreduction.
Tian obtained his PhD from the University of Cambridge in 2017. During his PhD, he worked on the synthesis of monolithic MOFs and their composite for gas adsorption and catalysis applications. He co-founded a spin-out, Immaterial Ltd, to design and up-upscale monolithic MOFs production after obtaining his PhD.
