Summary of the experiences and competences of Ruiyong
I received his Ph.D. degree from University of Duisburg-Essen in 2015. After 5 years stay at the Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources (BGR) at Hannover, I moved to the Institute of Oceanology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IOCAS). My major interests are marine microbial corrosion and protection, mineral/metal-microbial interactions, biofilms in applied fields, e.g., bioleaching.
Looking for help? Ruiyong can help you with the following items
Our team has the access to various marine samples/marine test stations for joint microbiologically influenced corrosion and biofouling research. We have also the access to the marine research fleet comprising three main research ships, Science I, Science III and Kexue ("Science"). The latter is a national state-of-the-art masterpiece. At 99.8 m in length, 17.8 m in width, and with a draught of 8.9 m, Kexue has a range of 15,000 nautical miles and has a crew of 80. The fleet has sailed all over China's territorial waters as well as into deep-ocean waters, making possibilities for MIC and biofouling studies at depth over 6000 meters.
