W. Wong Syie Luing
RESEARCH PROFILE
Dr. Wong Syie Luing is a Chartered Chemical Engineer (Institution of Chemical Engineers, UK) and Postdoctoral Researcher in the Sustainable Process Engineering group at Eindhoven University of Technology (ºÚÁϸ£ÀûÍø). His research focuses on electrified and catalytic recycling of plastic waste into value-added chemicals and sustainable fuels.
His work integrates electromagnetic heating, catalytic reaction engineering, and energy transition technologies to enable low-carbon circularity for plastics.
To date (Oct 2025), he has authored over 95 peer-reviewed publications with more than 3,800 citations (H-index 31), and is listed among the Top 2% Scientists in the World (Stanford, 2021–2025). His current research at ºÚÁϸ£ÀûÍø aims to advance electrified pyrolysis systems from laboratory scale to industrial readiness in collaboration with European and global partners.
True sustainability begins when science serves society — when we turn curiosity into solutions, and innovation into responsibility for the planet we share.
