Professor Miao Chen is a faculty member in the Department of School of Science at RMIT University, based at the City Campus in Australia. Their research focuses on resources engineering, extractive metallurgy, environmental engineering, and materials engineering. Professor Chen leads projects addressing challenges in mineral processing, bioleaching, and environmental remediation, with a particular emphasis on optimizing low-grade ore beneficiation, heap leaching performance, and sustainable metal recovery from spent Li-ion batteries. Their work integrates advanced analytical techniques like machine learning and electrochemical sensing to enhance process understanding and environmental monitoring.
Key research interests include the characterization of high-phosphorus iron ores, arsenic mobility in groundwater, and biotransformation mechanisms of uranium species in mining environments. Professor Chen also explores innovative sensor technologies such as LTCC-based dissolved oxygen sensors and nanostructured glucose biosensors. Their projects often involve collaboration with industry to translate research into practical solutions for resource efficiency and environmental sustainability.
Supervision focuses on advancing methodologies for mineral upgrading, in-situ monitoring systems, and corrosion protection in reinforced concrete. Grants and partnerships are directed toward sustainable resource management and clean technology development.
