Kefeng is a dedicated researcher with a strong focus on urban water management and the implementation of nature-based green technologies such as bioretention systems and green walls. His expertise lies in understanding the pollution and risks associated with various water sources, including stormwater, greywater, and pre-treated wastewater, and effectively utilizing green technologies to manage these risks. Currently, Kefeng is engaged in developing frameworks for quantifying, controlling, and monitoring the risks associated with stormwater treatment systems, which involves real-time control and monitoring of stormwater treatment systems (ARC DECRA project). By conducting this research, Kefeng aims to encourage the practical implementation of safe stormwater harvesting and water recycling, while advocating for the utilization of nature-based systems for water treatment. In addition to his research pursuits, Kefeng serves as the managing editor for the rapidly expanding journal, Blue-Green Systems (Q1, Cite Score 7.8, SCOPUS 2023).
