Tianjin female professor: overcoming technical problems, the profit of newly-increased enterprises exceeded 2 billion, and won the first prize of scientific and technological progress

Recently, "Tianjin Daily" keep in mind the mission and take responsibility as an advanced and typical topic column published "Let Desalinated Sea Water Really Enter People's Life──Remember Tianjin University of Science and Technology Science and Technology Division Director, Chemical Engineering and Materials College "Donna" feature article, reporting the advanced deeds of Professor Donna.

Donna, female, Han nationality, from Haicheng, Liaoning. Doctor, professor, doctoral supervisor. Tianjin young and middle-aged science and technology innovation leader, Tianjin "131 Innovative Talent Cultivation Project" talent, Tianjin March 8th Red Banner Bearer. He graduated from Tianjin University in January 2005 and obtained a doctorate degree in chemical technology. In 2008, he was a senior visiting scholar at Ohio State University. He is currently the Dean of the School of Chemical Engineering and Materials, Tianjin University of Science and Technology, and Director of the Marine Resources and Environmental Monitoring Center (National CMA Qualification) of Tianjin University of Science and Technology.

I love my job and work hard.

"Tianjin is a coastal city. How to make efficient and optimal use of seawater resources is always my goal." In 1995, Donna graduated from the Salt Industry Chemical Engineering Department of Tianjin Institute of Light Industry (the predecessor of Tianjin University of Science and Technology) known as the "Salt Huangpu" with the first place in the major, and became the first postgraduate in inorganic chemical engineering of the department. Three years later, she was successful in her studies and stayed on to teach. Donna is obsessed with research and always strives for excellence in education and teaching. Not only is academically rigorous, but also pays more attention to combining theory with practice in teaching, which is well received by students. In her spare time after teaching

, Donna pays particular attention to improving her scientific research ability and professional level, and has made great achievements in the comprehensive utilization of seawater and brine resources, salt science and engineering, membranes and membrane processes. In the past 5 years, has presided over more than 10 national, provincial and ministerial scientific research projects, and won 2 international invention patents, more than 20 Chinese invention patents, and 4 provincial and ministerial first prizes for scientific and technological progress. In recent years, a number of technological achievements have been promoted and applied in the field of comprehensive utilization of brine water resources and in the international and domestic salt chemical industry, achieving more than 2 billion yuan in new profits.

​​She participated in the formulation of the "Twelfth Five-Year" and "Thirteenth Five-Year" development plans for the national salt industry, which played a catalytic role in improving the technological innovation capabilities and levels of the national salt making and salt chemical industries. The project "Key technologies for the production of salt from seawater desalination of concentrated seawater and the industrialization of bromine", hosted by Donna, established solar sea salt, concentrated seawater vacuum membrane distillation concentration, and bromine extraction from medium brine with desalinated concentrated seawater as the beach brine. And high value-added bromine products, beach-sun saturated brine and bittern vacuum salt production and the production chain of high-end salt products such as medicinal salt, innovative research and development of key technologies and equipment, and optimization of production processes, effectively solve the problem of desalinated concentrated seawater The salt and bromine industry has high energy consumption and low production efficiency and other major technical problems that restrict industrial development, and won the 2016 Tianjin Science and Technology Progress First Prize. This achievement has been promoted and transformed in three sea salt production enterprises with an annual output of one million tons in the northern Haiyan District. In the past three years, it has added 225 million yuan in accumulated profits to many enterprises in Tianjin.

Dedication does not speak hard, pursuit is endless

As the first dean of the School of Chemical Engineering and Materials, Donna adheres to the dean responsibility system under the leadership of the party committee, leads the college leadership team to organize various departments of the college, takes the lead in completing the college's spatial planning layout, and formulating series Institutional measures have laid a solid foundation for the long-term development of the new college. The college was approved as a first-level doctoral degree in chemical engineering and technology in 2017, and the key laboratory of "Salt Making and Salt Chemical Industry" of China National Light Industry Council. In 2018, the chemical engineering and technology major passed the engineering education certification of the Ministry of Education. The construction period is In 6 years, the "Integrated Utilization of Brine Resources" innovation team was included in the "Innovative Team Development Plan" list by the Ministry of Education. Since serving as the director of the Science and Technology Division, Donna has steadily promoted the construction of key laboratories of the State and the Ministry of Education. On the basis of in-depth investigations in various faculties, he has studied and formulated the "National Natural Fund Project Application Management Measures" and other institutional measures to make the school's science and technology management system and mechanism Further sound.

​​Seawater desalination is a dream pursued by mankind for hundreds of years. Donna has focused on related research to overcome the problems of desalination. The achievement did not stop her from struggling. In order to let desalinated seawater truly enter the lives of the people, and to stop the water-scarce city from crying "thirsty", Donna shouldered the responsibility of a scientist and moved forward on the road of scientific research.
