6月22日，惠灵顿维多利亚大学尹航博士应邀来中心做学术报告。报告会在化学化工学院D320会议室举行，由中心文为教授主持，相关教师参加了报告会。

尹航博士的报告题目为“MUFs: Highly Selective MOF Fillers in Mixed Matrix Membranes for Efficient CO₂ Separation”。尹航博士开发出MUFs（Massey University Frameworks），这是一系列新兴的金属有机框架（MOFs）填料，具有特殊的物理化学性质，可用于混合基质膜（MMM）的开发。这些MUFs基膜具有高效分离CO₂的巨大潜力。报告会后，在场教师积极提问，与尹航博士展开热烈讨论。

Dr. Ben Yin （尹航）received his bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering from Dalian University of Technology. He started his research career at the National University of Singapore and obtained his Ph.D. in Chemical and Process Engineering from the University of Canterbury, New Zealand. Afterward, he undertook a Postdoctoral Fellowship at the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology in Saudi Arabia and led an industrial product R&D project in China. He returned to New Zealand with independent postdoc funding from the MacDiarmid Institute and worked at Massey University. He then worked as a research scientist at the New Zealand Institute for Minerals to Materials Research, until his current appointment as a senior scientist at the Victoria University of Wellington. Work interests span the creation of green materials and their applications in the environmental and energy industries. Ben’s research includes membrane separation technology, porous materials synthesis and application, e.g., zeolite and carbon materials, and hydrogen production and applications for green metallurgy.
