科技创新

莫查德·奥兹博士，物理学士学位和化学工程博士学位，1990年至2020年任职于澳大利亚联邦科学与工业研究组织（CSIRO），期间晋升为首席研究科学家，从事大气科学与建模、排放管理及二氧化碳捕集等环境领域研究，2020年4月加入新南威尔士州政府并统筹该州大气科学研究工作，聚焦全球能源结构转型下面临的能源-环境治理挑战，开创性提出排放控制与建模（涵盖温室气体与非温室气体量化管理、大气化学机理与污染物迁移转化建模、细颗粒物动态评估）、碳中和技术创新（如二氧化碳捕集与资源化利用技术、智能城市空气质量模型开发）及政策协同研究（包括新兴污染物监测、能源政策与环境法规交互机制分析）三大关键方向，研究成果为工业界与政策制定方提供了多尺度污染减排的科学依据，推动地方、区域及全球层面政策协同实施，助力联合国可持续发展目标（SDGs）中清洁能源与气候行动目标的实现，并为开发可持续能源应用模型、优化智能城市设计及制定减污政策奠定了跨学科基础。

Merched Azzi, B.S. in Physics, Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering. Between Oct 1990 and March 2020, Dr Azzi joined the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), Australia where has been promoted to become Chief Research Scientist. Dr Azzi has been an active scientist leading research in atmospheric science and modelling, Emissions Management and CO2 capture and the environment. Since April 2020, Dr Azzi has joined the New South Wales Government to lead the atmospheric research area in the state.

Dr Azzi identified research that would be most useful and applicable to energy-environment management challenges facing Australia and the world during an unprecedented change in the energy mix. He initiates research topics to generate fundamental science and insights into the effects of technological advances in achieving energy and environmental goals. Dr. Azzi has been very active in research related to control and management of GHG and non-GHG emissions, atmospheric chemistry and modelling, fine particles, air quality studies including modelling and assessment of emissions. Dr. Azzi’s research initiatives address research topics such as emissions and measurements of emerging pollutants, atmospheric fates of pollutants, CO2 capture and utilization, advanced air quality models for air quality forecasting and for the development of sustainable energy applications and smart-city design, and interplay between the energy sector and environmental policy and regulations. His research has provided the scientific knowledge required by industry and regulators to work together towards implementing the appropriate policies for local, regional and global pollution reductions.
