Yiming is a Ph.D. graduated from University of Adelaide. His research concentrates on the elimination of smoke taint in wine using engineering approaches, e.g., solid-phase adsorption and membrane filtration techniques. Yiming is also interested in compositional changes of smoke tainted wine over a period of aging in wine bottle. The impact of smoke taint on the production of other economic products (e.g., wine vinegar, apple and apple cider) is also a part of his research.
My research mainly focuses on the management (elimination) of smoke taint in wine using various engineering approaches. Smoke taint is determined as a problem because of the presence of smoke-derived volatiles (e.g., phenols) and non-volatiles (phenol glycoconjugates) in grape and wine. By using analytical chemistry and sensory methods, my research evaluates the capacities of adsorbents (e.g., molecularly imprinted polymers, resin, activated carbon, etc.) and membrane filtration in the management of smoke-related compounds in grape juice, must and wine.
