Jinsong He

Ms. Jinsong He (BSc; MSc) is currently a PhD candidate in the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering, National University of Singapore. Her current research work is centered on the development and applications of adsorption and membrane technologies for water treatment. Her main works are development of two types of highly cost-effective membranes, namely, functional particle embedded membrane and ion-imprinted membrane, for decontamination of toxic heavy metals from aqueous solutions. In addition, she has successfully developed a full-scale manufacture facility for production of metallic oxide nano-particle, which can be used for treating highly toxic arsenic from groundwater. She has done very well in fundamental research.Read more
