报告人简介:
        Dr. Tianwei Hao graduated from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in 2014. His research interests focus on biological wastewater treatment, solid waste treatment and energy and resource recovery. In the past 5 years, he has published more than 20 Nature index papers and secured 5 patents from the United States, Japan, and China. He has won a number of scientific research awards, such as the International Water Association Project Innovation Bronze Award, the TECO International Green Technology Innovation Gold Award, and the Hong Kong Institution of Engineers Young Scholars Innovation Grand Prize.

报告内容简介:
        Increased production of food waste (FW) raises serious environmental and social concerns. However, high organics content renders FW a potential energy/resource source. While anaerobic digestion (AD) is attractive for FW treatment in terms of energy recovery (CH4) and sustainability, the process balance mechanism is still sparse, impeding the overall AD performance. This study therefore aims to fill this knowledge gap through FW characterization, batch tests, long-term operation, and mechanism studies focusing on the efficient recovery of methane from FW. The outcomes of this study provide new insights into the digestion of low-C/N-ratio FW and validate the AD process balance regulation strategy based on microbial niche differentiation.
