Biography

Ir Dr Ng Lik Yin received his MEng (Hons) in Chemical Engineering and PhD in Engineering from The University of Nottingham. His specialisation cover areas of Process System Engineering, especially on computer-aided molecular design and synthesis, integration and optimisation of biomass processing processes. As an advocate for clean and sustainable future, Dr. Ng is utilising his expertise in designing green products, synthesising green production processes, and synthesising sustainable consumption and production frameworks. Dr. Ng is also active in industrial consultation projects, working with industries on utilities conversation projects and providing training to engineers.
