个人简介

Dr Qilei Song is currently a Lecturer in the Department of Chemical Engineering at Imperial College London. The Song Research Group has research interests in design, synthesis, and characterisation of functional polymers and nanoporous materials for applications in membrane separations, adsorption, catalysis, and energy conversion and storage. Dr Qilei Song received Bachelor's and Master's degrees in School of Energy and Environment at Southeast University (Nanjing, China) in 2006 and 2009, respectively. In October 2009, he joined the Department of Chemical Engineering at University of Cambridge working on nanostructured mixed metal oxides for combustion and low carbon energy processes (Energy Environ. Sci. 2013). In October 2010, he moved to the Cavendish Laboratory to pursue a PhD in Polymer and Soft Matter Physics at the Cavendish Laboratory. He passed the PhD viva in February 2014, and continued as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the Cavendish Laboratory. During his PhD and Postdoc research, he worked on several types of cutting-edge microporous materials and their applications in membranes for gas separations, notably metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and polymer/MOF composites (Energy Environ. Sci. 2012), polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIMs) (Nature Communications, 2013; Nature Communications, 2014; Journal of Materials Chemistry A, 2016), and novel porous molecular materials known as porous organic cages (Advanced Materials, 2016). He joined the Department of Chemical Engineering at Imperial College in November 2014 to pursue an independent research programme. He worked closely with Prof. A. G. Livingston on microporous polymer nanofilm membranes (Nature Materials, 2016). In August 2016, he was appointed a Lecturer in Chemical Engineering in the Department. Sustainable energy and clean environment are key global challenges in the 21st century. Dr Song's research interests are focused on design and synthesis of porous materials for energy and environmental applications, in applications such as membranes for molecular separations, heterogeneous catalysis, combustion, and energy conversion and storage. A broad scientific approach is used aiming to understand their physical and chemical properties that dominate the processes of molecular and ionic transport, adsorption/absorption and diffusion, and chemical reactions.

研究领域

Dr Song is leading a new and dynamic group working on novel nanoporous materials, such as microporous polymers, metal-organic frameworks, porous organic molecules, supramolecular materials, and their broad applications in separations, catalysis, combustion, and energy conversion and storage. Structure and Properties of Functional Materials Design and fabrication of functional materials, understanding the structure-property relationships, and applications in energy conversion, molecular separations, heterogeneous catalysis, and clean combustion and power generation. Membranes for Energy and Environmental Applications Design and fabrication of microporous membranes for molecular-level separations in energy and environmental processes (gas separation, liquid separation, separation of biofuels, and desalination for clean water). Advanced Materials for Energy Conversion and Storage Design and fabrication of novel electrode materials, membranes and separators for batteries and supercapacitors. Rational design of these novel materials for functional applications requires a fundamental understanding of their physical and chemical properties at the molecular level, such as chemical structure, macromolecular structure and crystalline structure, and linking the structures with their bulk properties over multi-magnitudes of scale. To solve these questions, the group uses an interdisciplinary approach involving chemistry, physics, materials science, chemical engineering science, and cutting-edge nanotechnology. The group are working on synthetic chemistry and collaborating extensively with chemists and materials scientists. Extensive physical and chemical characterization techniques are used to establish the structure-property relationships, building a fundamental background for their scale-up and commercialization to industrially useful products.
