Research Contributions

Hwei Voon Lee's research primarily focuses on sustainable biofuels, green chemistry, and catalytic processes. In 2022, notable works included the production of sustainable biolubricant ester base oil from palm fatty acid distillate, the development of highly active iron-promoted hexagonal mesoporous silica for deoxygenation of triglycerides, and the environment-friendly deoxygenation of non-edible Ceiba oil. Additionally, Lee has made significant contributions to the production of bio-jet fuel from palm feedstocks. In 2021, Lee's research extended to the biomedical field with studies on boronic-acid-modified nanomaterials and boron-doped carbon nanodots for cancer therapy, as well as environmental applications such as oil removal using diatomaceous earth incorporated floating magnetic beads.
