Runze Huang
Runze Huang is a Ph.D. student in
the Department of Mechanical
Engineering. He received his B.S.
in engineering mechanics from
Beijing Institute of Technology.
In his junior year, he cofounded a
start-up company aiming at
commercializing biofuel
technologies in Southern China and
reached deep collaboration with
academia, industry and government
agencies. During that experience
he grew greater interest in energy
and sustainability. He continued
to graduate study in Northwestern
University and joined ERSAL first
as a M.S. candidate in mechanical
engineering in 2012, and later
transferred to Ph.D. program in
mid 2013.
He currently works on developing a
multi-scale life cycle assessment
modeling framework for emerging
manufacturing technologies (e.g.
additive manufacturing). By
looking into energy, environmental
and economic net impact in
different industry level and
temporal-spatial scales, he aims
to bridge the knowledge gap
between laboratory and business;
from present to future. With the
analysis, industries and
government agencies could receive
insights and suggestions for
policy making, performance
improving, strategic planning and
best practice guiding.
His ongoing work has been
published in Applied Energy,
Resources, Conservation and
Recycling and other journals. He
also participates and gives
presentations in ACLCA and other
conferences annually.
