Zirui Yang

Undergraduate researcher (IRP program) 

I am a Year 4 undergraduate in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore. Under Prof. Arpita Iddya’s supervision, my Individual Research Program focuses on sustainable wood-based ion-exchange membranes for selective ion recovery, leveraging wood’s natural structure and advanced functionalization to enhance resource recovery efficiency.

My academic interests include sustainable materials, membrane separation, and environmental technologies. I aim to develop innovative solutions for water treatment, resource recovery, and sustainable chemical engineering, bridging fundamental science with practical applications.
