Profile
Dr Shenghui ZHOU
Research Fellow
Dr Shenghui ZHOU was born in Hunan province, China. He received his B.S. degree and M.S. degree in chemical engineering from Xiangtan University in 2014 and 2017. In 2020, he received his Ph.D. degree in biomass science and engineering from South China University of Technology. After his graduation, he joined the team of Prof. Zeng Hua Chun at National University of Singapore and CARES as a Research Fellow. During his time at CARES, he conducted research in the field of CO2 conversion, with his research findings published in journals such as Nat. Commun. and ACS Catal.. Starting in Nov. 2023, he will be joining the team of Prof. Xu Rong at Nanyang Technological University as a Research Fellow, while also continuing to complete some research experiments at CARES.
