Dr Yon Hao Ren Email: [email protected] Dr Yon Hao Ren is a lecturer in the School of Engineering, Computing and Built Environment, UOW Malaysia KDU Penang University College. She has joined the institution since January 2019. Dr Yon Hao Ren obtained her PhD in Electrical Engineering from Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore and Bachelor of Engineering in Electrical Engineering from University of Malaya (UM). Her research focuses on the Liquid Desiccant Dehumidification System (LDDS) and absorption-based liquid desiccant regeneration system in vacuum condition. The research focuses on reducing the energy consumption in the air conditioning system by replacing the conventional regenerator with an energy-efficient regeneration system operating in vacuum condition.
