<biogHist>
<abstract>Gang Li is a chemical engineer whose research focuses on ways to reduce greenhouse gases. Among his inventions are a new technique to capture greenhouse gas methane and reduce emissions from coal mines and natural gas production, and ionic liquid zeolites (porous absorbent minerals) that have advanced gas separation technologies. His company Gas Capture Technologies Pty Ltd has placed Australia as a global leader in gas processing technology. Li received the David and Valerie Solomon Award for his research in 2020.</abstract>
