Overview

Professor Huanting Wang has made a significant and sustained contribution to research in membrane science and separation technology. This contribution has helped to advance the research field and solve industrial problems. The separation membranes invented by Prof. Wang have been commercialised and applied in the water, mining and manufacturing industries. Prof Wang’s work recent pioneering work on selective ion transport through advanced porous framework materials is already being translated into commercialised devices for water purification and extraction of minerals, including for energy devices.
