1. RESEARCH GROUP

Inorganic Ions Separation and Inorganic Materials Group

2. BRIEF INTRODUCTION

The research of our group focuses on the design and preparation of functional materials which are used for the separation of different ions from salt lakes. Especially we have paid more attention on development of adsorption technology for the extraction of valuable ions form salt lakes. The series work about adsorption separation include adsorbents preparation, ad/desorb technical development and corresponding equipment design. We have received various funding supports from National Natural Science Foundation of China, Science and Technology department of Qinghai province, and Chinese Academy of Sciences. As one research group in the Key Laboratory of Comprehensive and Highly Efficient Utilization of Salt Lake Resources of CAS), Ph. D graduates and young scientists are welcome to visit and join us.
