Reporter Introduction:

Dr. Yahui Zhang is a tenured Associate Professor in the Department of Process Engineering at Memorial University of Newfoundland (MUN).

He earned his first Ph.D. degree in Mineral Processing from Central South University in 1996 and second Ph.D. degree in Materials Engineering from University of Alberta, Canada, in 2005.

His research interests lie in the areas of sustainable metal production (including recovering metals from new and secondary resources, e.g., ocean mining and urban mining), extractive metallurgy of rare earth elements (REE), precious and nonferrous metals, designing and finding of new reagents/resins for mineral flotation and metal extraction, CO2 capture and conversion, and novel processes for wastewater treatment. He has published more than 120 papers in peer reviewed journals and conference proceedings, and filed 15 patent applications, of which eight have been granted.
