Research Interests

Dr. Hsieh has been active in the areas of pulp and paper engineering with emphasis on cellulosic and synthetic fiber technology. His research includes chemical and thermomechanical pulping, deinking on recycled fibers, mass transfer and kinetics in oxygen/ozone delignification of wood pulp and many applications of chemical engineering unit operations on pulp and paper processes.

Dr. Hsieh spent more than ten years in research and development with DuPont, Scott Paper, and the Empire State Paper Research Institute before heading Georgia Tech's Pulp and Paper Engineering Program. The thrust of his research in non chlorine-based bleaching has obtained significant industrial support and international recognition.
