Introduction / 簡介
Wan-Ting (Grace) Chen, Ph.D., is an assistant professor in the department of Plastics Engineering at the University of Massachusetts Lowell (UMass Lowell), where she directs the Plastics & Environment Research Laboratory. Grace received her B.Sc in Chemical Engineering from National Taiwan University, M.S. and Ph.D. in Agricultural and Biological Engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, a postdoctoral training in Chemical Engineering from Purdue University.

Her research group has extensive experience in the sustainability area. Prof. Chen’s current research focuses on four topics:
Chemical recycling of plastic waste into fuels, polymers, and chemicals,
Biofuel and bioplastic material development,
Microplastic pollution mitigation, and
green solvent formulation.
