Jinming Duan

Professor Jinming Duan is an academic at the University of South Australia, affiliated with the UniSA STEM school. As a Research Degree Supervisor and co-author in multiple high-impact publications, he specializes in water treatment technologies and environmental engineering.

• Research Focus: Advanced oxidation techniques, photoelectrocatalysis, and adsorption mechanisms for removing organic pollutants from water
• Key Techniques: Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations, UV/PS processes, Fe-Mg modified biochar
• Affiliations: Centre for Water Management and Reuse, Sustainable Infrastructure and Resource Management (SIRM) group
• Contributions: Development of scalable water treatment protocols, mathematical models for sensor calibration, integration of renewable energy in environmental technologies

His recent work explores optimizing pesticide removal efficiency, improving biochar adsorption capacity, and correcting fluorescence signals for dissolved organic matter monitoring. Collaborations span institutions including Yantai University, Griffith University, and SA Water Corporation. One study received funding from the Australian Research Council (ARC LP160100217 grant).
