Associate Professor, Lab of Food & Physical Field Processing, Research Center of Fruit and
Vegetable Deep-processing Technology; School of Food Engineering and Nutrition Science, ShaanXi
Normal University, ShaanXi Province, PR China
Dr Qing-An Zhang is an associate
professor in the Research
Center of Fruit and Vegetable Deep-processing Technology; SchoolofFood Engineeringand Nutrition Science at the ShaanXi Normal University (SNNU),ShaanXiProvince, PR China. He graduated from Henan
Inistitute of Science and Technology in 1999, then further studied as a Master
inShaanXiNormalUniversityand received his M.Eng. in 2002, and obtained a PhD degree in applied chemistry
fromShaanxiNormalUniversityin 2010. Thereafter, Dr Qing-An joined the University College
Dublin (UCD), Ireland National
University in 2011 as a postdoctoral researcher under the
guidance of Prof. Da-Wen Sun for two years, worked on the project of Novel method for assisting and accelerating the aging process
of wine funded by the European Commission.
After
obtaining his master degree in 2002, Dr Qing-An works in theSchoolofFood Engineeringand Nutrition Science of SNNU as a teacher. The courses he taught include Food Analysis
and Inpection, Food Safety and Control, Food Nutriology, Food Laws and
Standards. Now his research interests focus on quality change and control of food during processing, especially the
emerging inovative processing technology, such as ultrasound and mircowave. To
be specific, his group is working on the browning and its efficient control of
fruits (for example apricot, almond and walnut) by physical techniques during
unit operations, and the mechanism of wine ageing accelerated by ultrasound is also
his enthusiasm, he has proposed a route based on the oxidation reactions
initiated by free radicals generated from the instant high pressure and
temperature to understand it.
Dr. Qing-An’s research has been funded by National Science Foundation of China (NSFC), Natural Science Foundation of Shaanxi Province of China, and the Fundamental Research Funds for
the Central Universities of China. In addition, he has also taken on five projects funded
by the small and medium-sized food enterprises. He has published over 70 journal articles and co-edited 10 book chapters.
