ResearchGateOngoing Project
- Feasibility analysis of achieving net-zero emissions in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau
College of Engineering Undergraduate Research Project — Independently Completed
September 2024 - Now
This project evaluates the potential for renewable energy based on the meteorological conditions of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. It constructs a mathematical model with the investment decision cost of the entire natural resources as the objective function, optimizes the energy structure, and forms a zero-carbon energy planning scheme for the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Additionally, it analyzes the environmental-economic-health effects of the zero-carbon planning.
Early Project
- Implementing Ecological Protection Compensation for Pollution Control in China: A Case Study on Aligning Public Policy with Sustainable Development Goals
2024 Tsinghua International Case Analysis Competition of Public Policy on SDGs — Collaboratively Completed
June 2024 - September 2024
This study focuses on the implementation of China’s Ecological Protection Compensation (EPC) mechanism and its role in pollution control, using Shandong Province as a case study to explore how policy innovations can balance environmental governance with economic development.
Responsible for compiling the ecological protection compensation policies and measures in Shandong Province, and for analyzing the air quality compensation measures and the inter-provincial watershed compensation mechanisms.
- Distribution and Risk Assessment of Organic Matter and Heavy Metals in Sediments from Saihanba Water Systems
Comprehensive Environmental Internship II Project — Collaboratively Completed
July 2024 - August 2024
This study collected sediment samples from various rivers and lakes in the Saihanba region, with a focus on analyzing heavy metals and total organic carbon (TOC), while also documenting basic physicochemical properties such as pH. The distribution characteristics of heavy metals and TOC in the sediments were discussed, revealing significant variations among sampling points. Correlation analysis of different indicators showed strong relationships between specific heavy metal pairs: Cu-Cr, Pb-Cu, and As-Cu. A notable correlation was also observed between TOC in overlying water and surface water. Additionally, the analysis indicated that high TOC content in sediments promotes Zn deposition. Finally, based on the collected data and analytical results, ecological assessments of the Saihanba river and lake sediments were conducted using the Geo-accumulation Index (Igeo), Nemerow Comprehensive Pollution Index, and Potential Ecological Risk Index. The evaluation concluded that all measured indicators present low ecological risks.
Responsible for overlying water filtration/dilution, TOC measurement, heavy metal-TOC correlation analysis, data compilation, PPT/social media/poster/video production, and correlation analysis section writing.
- Analysis of the Impact Mechanism of Indoor and Outdoor Air Pollution Under the Rural “Coal-to-Gas” Policy in Baoding City—An Empirical Study Based on Dual Perspectives of Regional Response and Farmer Behavior
Challenge Cup Special Contribution Project — Collaboratively Completed
January 2025 - March 2025
This research primarily analyzes the changes in air pollutants in Baoding’s atmosphere following the implementation of the clean heating policy, as well as variations in indoor air pollutant concentrations in rural households due to individual behavioral differences. It involves assessing the regional environmental governance effects brought about by policy implementation and analyzing indoor air pollution resulting from farmers’ behavioral patterns.
Responsibilities included conducting long-term time-series analysis of air quality monitoring data in rural Baoding, evaluating the effectiveness of the “coal-to-gas” policy using breakpoint and cumulative effect analyses, performing correlation analysis on influencing factors of Baoding’s atmospheric environment, and discussing the short-term and long-term impacts of policy implementation.
