Biography
Aidong joined Oxford in 2014 as an Associate Professor in the Department of Engineering Science, and as a Research Fellow of Green Templeton College. Before moving to Oxford, Aidong was a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Chemical and Process Engineering at University of Surrey, where he started as a Lecturer in 2007 after working as a postdoctoral researcher in a number of academic organisations, including Chinese Academy of Science, Louisiana State University, RWTH Aachen, and University of Newcastle Upon Tyne.
Aidong studied Chemical Engineering in Hebei University of Technology and Dalian University of Technology and received a Bachelor's degree and a PhD in 1992 and 1997, respectively.

Research Interests
Aidong's research interests lie in developing methods and tools for modelling chemical/biochemical processes and related systems and in applying models and other systems engineering approaches to support the development of sustainable energy, engineering and manufacturing systems.
In particular, his group is currently active in the following areas: renewable resources utilisation, atmospheric CO2 removal, food-energy-water nexus, and biological systems engineering.
Aidong’s work has involved collaborations with groups from multiple disciplines. He is currently part of the Management Group of Oxford’s Agile Initiative which pioneers rapid interdisciplinary research for environmental solutions.
