🎓Academic and Professional Background 

Shuqing Li is a Research Assistant at the Shanghai Advanced Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Science. His research addresses the technical bottleneck of carbon deposition in Ni-based catalysts for dry reforming of methane (DRM). By enhancing the coupling between carbon deposition resistance and heat transfer performance, Shuqing utilizes advanced characterization techniques to study the structural evolution of catalysts. This research aims to optimize the synergistic effects between improved heat transfer and catalytic activity to advance catalyst efficiency.

🔬Key Research and Contributions 

Shuqing Li’s research is centered on C1 catalysis, with a primary focus on improving carbon resistance and heat transfer efficiency in catalysts used for CH₄-CO₂ dry reforming (DRM). His notable contributions include the development of a Ni/AlN@Al₂O₃ catalyst, which uses AlN as a carrier to significantly enhance both carbon resistance and heat transfer efficiency in DRM applications. This work integrates the enhancement of heat transfer with catalytic activity, and has secured funding from the National Natural Science Foundation. Additionally, Shuqing developed a Ni-S₂ catalyst, creating a nano-wire SiO₂ catalyst through solution recrystallization, which shows superior performance at high space velocities. His research deeply investigates the structure-activity relationship of these catalysts, with a particular focus on Ni’s dual effect on the activation of C-H and C-O bonds. This work provides valuable insights into the molecular-level mechanisms of catalysts and paves the way for more efficient catalyst design in energy conversion processes.
