赞词

汤初阳教授对研究脱盐膜纳米结构及其传输行为做出了杰出贡献，是膜技术、海水淡化、水回用领域的领军人物。作为水通道蛋白仿生膜的主要发明人，首次开发了可大规模生产的水通道蛋白嵌入式仿生脱盐膜。这项受到脱盐领域广泛认可的新一代膜技术，在保持出色选择性的同时实现高效水传输，已在新加坡、丹麦、中国商业化。汤教授开发了界面纳米发泡技术控制聚酰胺反渗透膜表面粗糙度和形态的开创性工作，首次阐明了界面脱气机理及该机理对膜表面粗糙度特征的决定性影响，解决了膜研究领域几十年来的难题。纳米发泡技术有效克服了反渗透和纳滤膜的渗透选择性制约。他设计直接针对微污染物去除的水回用膜弥合了膜制备与水回用应用之间的重要鸿沟。汤教授发表SCI核心期刊论文260余篇，总引用数15,979，H指数71，发明专利15项，并70多次作邀请报告、主题演讲、大会主旨报告。获得芬兰杰出教授计划学者奖、国际海水淡化协会学者奖、新加坡国家发展部研发奖等荣誉，同时与他的研究团队因膜和过滤产品的发明获得多个国际奖项。
