Recently, the results of the "Top Ten" Green Mines Graduate Thesis Award in 2024 were announced. The doctoral dissertation of Yingliang Zhao from the Mining Engineering Department of NEU (supervised by Professor Jingping Qiu) titled "Performance Control of Arsenic Containing Waste Residue Filling Cementitious Materials and Study on the Solidification Mechanism of Arsenic" has been awarded as one of the "Top Ten Graduate Dissertations" for Green Mines in 2024. This paper successfully developed a new low-cost and environmentally friendly filling cementitious material from the solid waste resource utilization and pollution control. The research results are of great significance for reducing the cost of tailings bonding and filling, rational disposal of arsenic containing waste residue, and enriching the solidification theory of arsenic in cementitious materials.
Over the years, NEU has attached great importance to graduate education, continuously enhanced the self-cultivation of graduate students, elevated their academic level and innovation ability, and continuously introduced outstanding scientific research achievements and leading edge innovative talents through various effective means such as excellent doctoral scholarship program, excellent dissertation award program and dissertation sampling inspection, thereby systematically promote the high-quality development of graduate education.
The "Top Ten" Green Mines Graduate Thesis Award aims to promote the high-quality development, transformation and upgrading within the national mining industry, and to commend units and individuals who have made outstanding contributions in leading the industry progress, setting industry benchmarks, promoting discipline development and key core technology research and development in the construction and development of green mines.
