Research summary

Jun Duan's work centers on environmental catalysis and water/gas treatment technologies, including advanced oxidation and photocatalytic methods for breaking down water pollutants (such as pharmaceuticals and PFAS), catalytic materials for cleaning air pollutants and converting methane, and methods for storing and capturing methane using specialized porous materials. Much of the research develops new catalyst materials (metal oxides, spinels, metal-organic frameworks) and studies how their structure affects performance in pollutant degradation or gas storage reactions. This research is relevant to students interested in materials chemistry, environmental engineering, and clean energy-related catalysis.
