博士答辩Miss Wen-jie Cong successfully defended her doctoral dissertation

Started from 2:30 pm September 1, 2021, Miss Wen-jie Cong supervised by Prof. Zhen Fang, successfully defended her dissertation at B404 Huixian Building, Pukou Campus of Nanjing Agricultural University. The defending committee was composed of Prof. Jian-chun Jiang (Chair) from Institute of Chemical Industry of Forest Products, Chinese Academy of Forestry, Prof. Zhao-ping Zhong from Southeast University as well as Profs Chang-ying Ji, Wei-min Ding and Chun-xia He from Nanjing Agricultural University.

Miss Wen-jie Cong presented her research results for doctoral dissertation in 30 min, the committee members raised relevant questions. Miss Cong studied the production of biodiesel and hydrogen from waste oil with solid bases from spent bleaching clay and metal-organic framework with dissertation entitled “solid bases derived from spent bleaching clay and nickel metal-organic framework for biodiesel and hydrogen production”. Her work realized full utilization of solid waste (spent bleaching clay) for high efficient production of biodiesel with waste oil, and built a green processing for co-production of biodiesel and hydrogen with nickel MOF-based alkali. She co-authored 7 papers and first-authored 2 papers. After discussion, the panel agreed that Miss Cong had successfully completed her research and course requirements on agricultural bio-environment and energy engineering, voted by secret ballot and decided to confer Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering to Miss Cong subjected to the approval by the Academic Degrees Committees of the college and university.

Congratulations!

She published 2 first-authored papers:

丛文杰同学顺利通过博士论文答辩

2021年9月1日下午2:30 pm,天空晴朗,万里无云,南京农业大学生物能源组2017级博士研究生丛文杰(女)同学(导师方真老师)毕业答辩会在南京农业大学浦口校区汇贤楼B404举行。中国工程院院士、中国林业科学研究院林产化工研究所研究员蒋剑春担任答辩评审委员会主席,东南大学能源与环境学院二级教授仲兆平,南京农业大学的姬长英教授,何春霞教授和丁为民教授共五位专家担任评审委员。

答辩会上,丛文杰同学对其在校期间的学术论文进行汇报,同时答辩委员会主席和各位评委提出了相关问题。根据丛文杰同学的问题回答以及学位论文的评阅,评委会经过评审决议,一致认为丛文杰同学顺利完成了农业生物环境与能源方面的研究和学习要求。丛文杰同学在毕业论文《利用废白土和镍基金属有机框架材料制备催化剂生产生物柴油和氢气的研究》中以废白土和镍基金属有机框架为基础合成了一系列固体碱,用以催化废弃油脂制备生物柴油和氢气,实现了固废废白土的全利用,建立了镍基MOF固体碱催化废弃油脂联产生物柴油和氢气的绿色加工工艺。丛文杰同学在校期间工作认真,以第一作者身份共发表学术论文2篇。经评委会无记名投票表决,一致同意通过博士学位论文答辩,建议授予工学博士学位。

祝贺丛文杰同学!
