Dr Kok Siew Ng is a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in Chemical Engineering at Brunel University London.Details
Prior to joining Brunel, Kok Siew was a UKRI/NERC Industrial Innovation (Rutherford) Research Fellow and Lecturer in Chemical Engineering at the Department of Engineering Science, University of Oxford, from 2018 to 2022. During his time in Oxford, he was a Principal Investigator of the SYNERGORS project 'A systems approach to synergistic utilisation of secondary organic streams' (£0.5 million), funded by NERC. The project aimed to explore novel approaches to addressing challenges in organic waste management and achieving circular economy. He completed his MEng Chemical Engineering with Chemistry (First Class Honours) in 2008, and later gained his PhD in 2011 from the Centre for Process Integration (CPI), The University of Manchester. After completing his PhD, he joined Process Integration Limited (PIL) as a consultant and later took up a position as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Centre for Environment and Sustainability (CES), University of Surrey.Research Interests
1. Biorefinery system design (biomass and waste valorisation; gasification; pyrolysis; hydrothermal liquefaction; Fischer-Tropsch; aviation fuel production)2. Decarbonised polygeneration system design (carbon capture and utilisation; combined heat and power; fuel and chemical production)
3. Resource recovery from waste and Circular economy (management and valorisation of municipal solid waste including food waste, residual waste, recyclable waste)
