Dr. Zhiyong Jason Ren is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Civil, Environmental, and Architectural Engineering at the University of Colorado Boulder. Dr. Ren’s research and teaching focuses on energy and resource recovery during waste treatment, remediation, and water desalination processes. His lab works on developing new microbial and electrochemical approaches to transform aging environmental infrastructure from simple treatment only processes to integrated energy and value-added chemical recovery systems. His group also uses molecular microbiology, electrochemistry, and system engineering tools to understand the fundamental determinant factors to enhance system design, operation, and monitoring in concert with traditional approaches. In the past 5 years, he has published 1 book chapter, 58 journal articles, 4 patent disclosures, and directed more than $4 million dollars in research projects for NSF, ONR, EPA, Gates Foundation, and industrial sponsors. He is actively involved in technology transfer to marketplace. At CU, Jason teaches Environmental Microbiology and Bioenergy and Bioresource Recovery. He received Faculty Award in Research and Creative Activities, Junior Faculty Achievement Award, and ES&T Excellence in Review Award.
