Professor Low received his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering at Monash University in 2016. He then worked at the Center for Advanced Separations Engineering at the University of Bath as a Postdoctoral Researcher focusing on microporous membrane aging and 3D printing (the SynFabFun project, £ 4.5 MM). In 2017, he co-founded 2D Water Pty Ltd, (Monash University spin-out, raised $ 6 MM) with Professor Huanting Wang (Monash University) and led as CEO before joining Nanjing Tech University as a Full Professor in 2022. Since 2018, he is also Adjunct Senior Research Fellow at Monash University, Australia, and part of the Monash University Chemical Engineering Industry Advisory Board, ARC Industrial Transformation Hub for Energy-Efficient Separation Industry Advisory Board, and MDPI Membranes topical advisory panel. He is also a member of the 2018 FYA Young Social Pioneers and MDPI Membranes guest editor for several special issues. Prior to joining Nanjing Tech University, he was a Partner Investigator of the Australian Research Council (ARC) Industrial Transformation Hub Grant ($ 1.7 MM). He has published over 60 papers to date, includingChemical Reviews,Angewandte Chemie,Journal of Membrane Science,Chemical Engineering Journal, Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research,Journal of Materials Chemistry A,Chemical Communication,Nanoscale,ACS Applied Materials & Interfacesetc. Among the papers are 2 ESI highly cited papers and 1 with an Almetric Attention Score of 150. He has total citations of >2950, an h-index of 29, and an i10-index of 44 based on Google Scholar.
