Yangyuan Ji works on magnesium-based materials and water/air pollution control, focusing on processes such as capturing carbon dioxide from marine engine exhaust and converting it into solid carbonate minerals, and on treating water contaminated with substances like PFAS (a group of persistent industrial chemicals) and nitrate. Much of the work involves magnesium oxide and magnesium hydroxide chemistry, including how these materials form, dissolve, and can be optimized for industrial use in emissions and wastewater treatment.
