Jipeng has extensive research experience in the development of protein purification, lignin fractionation, biomass pretreatment, and bioproducts recovery. At ABPDU, Jipeng’s responsibilities focus on developing technologies as well as managing projects related to biomass deconstruction (i.e. pretreatment and hydrolysis) and downstream conversion and upgrading activities such as fermentation and chemical processing.
Jipeng completed his Ph.D. in paper and bioprocess engineering at SUNY College of Environmental Sciences and Forestry. His thesis focused on the production of ethanol using woody biomass. Among his many accomplishments, he built kinetic models for monosccharides, oligosaccharides, furfural, hydroxymethylfurfural, formic acid, and acetyl groups.
