Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oxygen
  • Organic chemistry
  • Biochemistry

Shihwu Sung spends much of his time researching Bioreactor, Chemical oxygen demand, Anaerobic digestion, Environmental engineering and Nuclear chemistry. The concepts of his Bioreactor study are interwoven with issues in Ammonium nitrate, Nitrification, Ammonium, Sewage sludge treatment and Sequencing batch reactor. His Chemical oxygen demand research includes themes of Environmental chemistry, Denitrification and Anammox.

Shihwu Sung interconnects Wastewater, Food science and Sewage treatment in the investigation of issues within Anaerobic digestion. His study looks at the intersection of Environmental engineering and topics like Waste disposal with Effluent, Estrone and Sewage. His biological study deals with issues like Hydrogen production, which deal with fields such as Fermentation and Biodegradation.

His most cited work include:

  • BIOHYDROGEN PRODUCTION AS A FUNCTION OF PH AND SUBSTRATE CONCENTRATION (623 citations)
  • Biological hydrogen production: effects of pH and intermediate products (544 citations)
  • Fate, Transport, and Biodegradation of Natural Estrogens in the Environment and Engineered Systems (365 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Shihwu Sung mainly investigates Wastewater, Pulp and paper industry, Bioreactor, Anaerobic digestion and Anammox. His Wastewater study deals with the bigger picture of Environmental engineering. His Bioreactor research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Hydraulic retention time, Effluent, Chemical oxygen demand, Methanogenesis and Biogas.

His research in Anaerobic digestion intersects with topics in Food science, Activated sludge, Total dissolved solids, Biosolids and Mesophile. His Food science study combines topics in areas such as Hydrogen production, Hydrogen, Thermophile and Acute toxicity. His work carried out in the field of Anammox brings together such families of science as Environmental chemistry, Nitrite and Ammonium.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Wastewater (32.61%)
  • Pulp and paper industry (28.26%)
  • Bioreactor (23.91%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Wastewater (32.61%)
  • Anammox (19.57%)
  • Sewage treatment (8.70%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Shihwu Sung spends much of his time researching Wastewater, Anammox, Sewage treatment, Environmental chemistry and Pulp and paper industry. His studies deal with areas such as Heterotroph and Bioreactor as well as Wastewater. His Bioreactor research incorporates elements of Activated sludge, Nitrification, Microorganism, Effluent and Nitrogen cycle.

Within one scientific family, Shihwu Sung focuses on topics pertaining to Nitrite under Anammox, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Autotroph, Biochemistry and Mixotroph. Shihwu Sung studied Sewage treatment and Pollutant that intersect with Biotreatment. His Environmental chemistry research integrates issues from Sulfate, Biogas, Ammonia and Anaerobic respiration.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Decentralized biorefinery for lignocellulosic biomass: Integrating anaerobic digestion with thermochemical conversion (27 citations)
  • Metagenomics and metatranscriptomics analyses reveal oxygen detoxification and mixotrophic potentials of an enriched anammox culture in a continuous stirred-tank reactor (13 citations)
  • Alleviating sulfide toxicity using biochar during anaerobic treatment of sulfate-laden wastewater. (11 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Oxygen
  • Organic chemistry
  • Biochemistry

Bioenergy, Carbon fixation, Nitrite, Metabolic pathway and Anammox are his primary areas of study. His Bioenergy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Lignocellulosic biomass, Digestate, Anaerobic digestion and Torrefaction. The Torrefaction study combines topics in areas such as Hemicellulose and Biorefinery.

His Carbon fixation investigation overlaps with other areas such as Autotroph, Biochemistry, Superoxide dismutase and Mixotroph.
