Nominator's project description
| Professor Wang is well known internationally for his work on combustion and aerosol science, especially in the field of soot formation, reaction modeling, and nanomaterials synthesis. His work led to conceptual understanding and mechanistic description of complex reactive phenomena with an utmost impact on the energy sector. In Germany, he will complement his theoretical approaches with a wide range of experimental methods. |
