Education and Appointments：

Prof. Zheng is a leading expert on POPs monitoring and dioxins studies in China. He is a main developer on POPs Monitoring Programme for the effectiveness evaluation of the Stockholm Convention in China.?He also contributes to international POPs monitoring activities. He is a coordinator of Asia-Pacific regional organization group on POPs monitoring and a member of Global Coordination Group on POPs monitoring under Stockholm Convention (2007-). His research group conducted investigations on dioxins, PCBs, PCNs and PBDD/Fs during various industrial processes, and proposed a synergic reduction mechanism for the control of POPs emission in industrial processes. He has published more than 200 scientific papers on POPs in peer reviewed journals. He was awarded the second class prize of National Science Award in 2011 (ranking 2).

Research Interest：
