Areas of RESEARCH

Environmental Chemistry, Atmospheric Aerosol Chemistry, Bio-fuel

RESEARCH INTEREST
One of Dr. Chen’s interests is aerosol science and its impact on climate change. Atmospheric particles or aerosols play an important role in affecting climate, human health and many aspects of earth environment. Recently, heterogeneous interactions between gaseous molecules and wet or dry aerosol particles’ surfaces have gained considerable interest since they have the potential to significantly alter the gas phase chemistry of the atmosphere. CS2, COS, DMS and SO2 are very important atmospheric sulfur-containing compounds. It is well accepted that the atmospheric reaction of CS2 with HO• is an important source of COS as well as the dominant sink of CS2 in the atmosphere. Prof. Chen’s team found that the catalytic oxidation of CS2 over atmospheric particles or mixed aerosols may be an important way of the conversion from CS2 or COS to sulfate close to the Earth’s surface (Environ. Sci. Technol. 2001, 2007). The adsorption of SO2 on the α-Fe2O3 surface results in the formation of sulfate complexes (J. Phys. Chem. C, 2007, 2009).
In his group, a series of advanced instruments has been recently built up such as Aerosol Chamber, Monitoring instrument for AeRosols and Gases (MARGA), Wide-range Particle Spectrometer, TDMA, Laser-CRD, Nephelometer, ATOFMS, GC-MS, DESI-MSn to investigate the real aerosol size distribution, hygroscopity, single particle property and chemical composition. The simulation of biomass burning found that the agricultural crop residue combustion in China causes serious pollution with CO, NOx, fine particles emissions (Atmos. Environ., 2008). The dustfall in Shanghai has an important contribution to PAHs and Alkyl PAHs (J. Environ. Monitoring, 2009). Dr. Chen’s team is now focusing on field measurement and the formation mechanism of haze and the haze climate effect is mainly being studied in his group. It was found that particulate nitrate formation in a highly polluted urban area in Shanghai behaviors a quite difference depending on the ammonia-rich or -poor aerosol (Environ. Sci. Technol., 2009).  Dr.Chen is interested in Bio-fuel also.
Dr. Chen has published over 90 papers, 16 Chinese patents, 3 co-edited  books.
