Dr Tong Deng is Associate Professor in Mechanical Process Engineering at the Wolfson Centre for Bulk Solids Handling Technology, School of Engineering, University of Greenwich, UK. He joined Wolfson Centre for Bulk Solids Handling Technology for a PhD study on influences of particle dynamics within laboratory erosion testers in 1998. Since 2001, he started to work as an active researcher on bulk solids material handling processes at the Wolfson Centre. In the past 20+ years, he worked as a consultant engineer, a senior lecturer and an associate professor for both of the Wolfson Centre and the School of Engineering. His research mainly focused on the areas of erosive wear evaluation, electrostatics of particulate solids, characterization of material bulk properties, powder segregation, particle degradation, and pneumatic conveying of bulk solids. Tong led numerous research projects funded by public funding organisations such as EPSRC and industry such as Roche Holding AG as a principal investigator. He has been mentoring and supervising students at various levels successfully including dozens of MSc and PhD students. He has published more than 60 archival journal papers and magazine articles plus 30+ conference presentations in all aspects of bulk solids handling. Since 2010, Tong has serviced more than 140 different companies funded 200+ projects at varying sizes for professional advice and challenge solutions. He serviced 64+ international journals as a reviewer.
