This project will address fundamental aspects of fluid-dense granular flow giving rise to the evolution of a complex micro- to mesoscale structures in the material,...
Wastewater treatment processes have high energy costs and are challenging to optimise due to the complex coupled processes occurring. Over 10 billion litres of sewage...
The management of multiphase sludge waste is critical to on-going operations within the nuclear industry which aim to transport aggregated waste to interim storage facilities....
Quantum dots (QDs) are semiconductor nanoparticles that can emit light through either photoluminescence or electroluminescence (EL). The latter enables one to create lighting devices in...
As the UK moves towards net-zero emissions, developing low-cost, high-energy density lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is crucial. A major cost driver in LIB manufacturing is the...
There are many instances where hydrogen generated from nuclear waste (via radiolysis) and accumulates within vessels or product containers at nuclear facilities. Mixed with air,...
The proposed project primarily addresses the research challenge of integrating low-carbon energy systems for sustainable and economically affordable energy conversion, storage and utilisation. Low carbon...
Pre-filled medical syringes (or vials) are prepared via an automated process that requires drastic control measures. Indeed, during their preparation, small particles may find their...
Controlled-release tablets provide sustained release of medication over an extended period which could be critical for treating chronic conditions that require constant medication levels in...
