Yan Ma
About
I have a PhD in Materials Science and Engineering and postdoctoral experience in industrial ecology. My extensive background allows me to effectively lead research in process simulation, thermodynamic calculations, life cycle assessment, and pyrometallurgy.
Research
My current research centers on process simulation and environmental assessment in sustainable metallurgy.
