Ma Jinfeng, Northwestern University

Professor/national high-level talent.

Executive Director of the National Local Joint Engineering Research Center for Carbon Dioxide Capture and Storage Technology; Director of Shaanxi Provincial Key Laboratory of Carbon Neutrality Technology; From 2003 to 2012, with funding from the China Scholarship Council and the University of Saskatchewan in Canada, participated in the International Energy Agency’s greenhouse gas project – Weyburn Oilfield Phase II CO2 Storage and Monitoring Project, and conducted research on CO2 geological storage monitoring technology. As the first person in charge, I have presided over three National 863 Program projects, three National Natural Science Foundation projects, one 973 Project project, and multiple horizontal projects. During the 12th Five Year Plan period, I led the 863 Program of the Ministry of Science and Technology in the field of advanced energy technology for clean coal, titled “Key Technologies for Carbon Dioxide Geological Storage (2012AA050103)”. The first domestic CO2 capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) full process demonstration project was carried out in the Jingbian Oilfield under Shaanxi Yanchang Petroleum Group. This project has become one of the 33 key low-carbon technologies promoted by the National Development and Reform Commission, and the only project in China that has been certified by the National Leaders Forum on Carbon Collection (CSLF). For three consecutive years (in Bonn, Germany in 2017, Katowice, Poland in 2018, and Madrid, Spain in 2019), he participated in the United Nations Climate Change China Corner Conference as a member of the Chinese government delegation and delivered keynote speeches. In December 2017, he attended the Ministerial Conference of the Carbon Capture Leaders Forum (CSLF) held in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates as the head of the Chinese government delegation, and repeatedly represented China on the international stage to preach China’s achievements in addressing climate change.
