High-Temperature Electrochemical Energy Conversion and Storage (ePub)

Mr. Tianyu Cao is a young researcher in electrochemical conversion and power generation. Tianyu received his bachelor degree from Department of Thermal Engineering at Tsinghua University in 2014. He then began to pursue a doctoral degree in the same department. Tianyu has been devoting himself to research and development of direct carbon fuel cell. He is also interested in reaction processes in fuel cells and rechargeable batteries.

Dr. Jiujun Zhang is a Principal Research Officer and Core-Competency Leader at the Energy, Mining & Environment, National Research Council of Canada (NRC-EME). Dr. Zhang received his B.S. and M.Sc. in Electrochemistry from Peking University in 1982 and 1985, respectively, and his Ph.D. in Electrochemistry from Wuhan University in 1988. After completing his Ph.D., he took a position as an associate professor at the Huazhong Normal University for two years. Starting in 1990, he carried out three terms of postdoctoral research at the California Institute of Technology, York University, and the University of British Columbia. Dr. Zhang has over thirty years of R&D experience in theoretical and applied electrochemistry, including over eighteen years of fuel cell R&D (among these 6 years at Ballard Power Systems and 12 years at NRC-IFCI (before 2011)/NRC-EME (after 2011), and 3 years of electrochemical sensor experience. Dr. Zhang holds several adjunct professorships, including one at the University of Waterloo, one at the University of British Columbia and one at Peking University. Up to now, Dr. Zhang has co-authored more than 400 publications including 230 refereed journal papers with approximately 16000 citations, 15 edited /co-authored books, 11 conference proceeding papers, 36 book chapters, as well as 110 conference and invited oral presentations. He also holds over 10 US/EU/WO/JP/CA patents, 11 US patent publications, and produced in excess of 90 industrial technical reports. Dr. Zhang serves as the editor/editorial board member for several international journals as well as Editor for book series (Electrochemical Energy Storage and Conversion, CRC press). Dr. Zhang is an active member of The Electrochemical Society (ECS), the International Society of Electrochemistry (ISE, Fellow Member), and the American Chemical Society (ACS), Canadian Institute of Chemistry (CIC), as well as the International Academy of Electrochemical Energy Science (IAOEES, Board Committee Member).
