A great honor for one of our Ph.D. graduates

In the September issue of the CEP journal, the AIChE announced the selection of the winners of its 35 Under 35 Award winners.  This award honors engineers under the age of 35 who have made significant contributions to the Institute and to the chemical engineering profession.  AIChE and the Young Professionals Committee (YPC), with support from the AIChE Foundation, are recognizing this year’s 35 outstanding young AIChE members.

The AIChE 35 Under 35 Award was founded to recognize young chemical engineers who have achieved greatness in their fields. The winners are a group of driven, engaged, and socially active professionals, representing the breadth and diversity that chemical engineering exemplifies.

This year, one of the 35 awardees is Dr. Zhenyu Wang, a graduate of the Chemical and Biological Engineering Department at Tufts and a member of the SRI group.  At Dow’s Chemometrics and Artificial Intelligence Group, Wang develops data analytics methodologies to support Manufacturing 4.0 initiatives.  He has developed and implemented techniques to solve complex industrial problems in the areas of process monitoring, fault diagnosis, industrial process optimization, and supply chain optimization.  His goal is to make the chemical industry more efficient and sustainable.
