Biography:

TongqiYe received a Bachelor of Science from Wuhan University, China in2002, and a PhD from University of Science and Technology of China in2011. He was a visiting scholar in Cardiff Catalysis Institute,Cardiff University from 2018-2019, and his cooperation supervisor wasProfessor Graham. J. Hutchings. He has worked as a R&D engineerin Shanghai Petrochemical (Sinopec) and Suzhou Hanhai Polymer Co.,LTD for 5 years. He moved to the Department of Chemical and FoodProcessing at Hefei University of Technology in 2013 and served asLaboratory Director. His research word is mainly focused onheterogeneous catalysis in conversion of biomass-based chemicals. Hehas been engaged in this research area for more than 10 years,participated in the "863" and "973" researchprojects, and undertook projects of the National Natural ScienceFoundation and the Natural Science Foundation of Anhui Province. Hehas published more than 20 papers and applied for nearly 10 patents.

ResearchInterests：

TongqiYe’s research interests mainly focus on the application of copperbased heterogeneous catalysts in the aldehyde-water conversionreaction, and explain the key factors affecting the catalystactivity; The substrate adaptability of aldehyde-water conversionreaction in biomass-based chemicals were investigated. He alsostudied the catalytic conversion of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) tofuran diformaldehyde (DFF) on Cu based catalysts and 5-methylfurfural(5-MF) on Fe based catalysts, the reaction mechanisms were deducedand DFT theoretical calculations were also performed.
