CO2 utilisation
Capture, preparation and use of CO2 in industrial processes, materials and supercritical fluid applications.
Read the lineResearch lines
Seven lines, one connected programme.
Five lines are vertical, focused on a field of application. Two are horizontal, providing methods and assessment across the portfolio.
Bioenergy
Recovery of energy and added value products from residues generated in industrial and biological processes.
Read the lineMaterials for energy
New materials for energy conversion and storage, including catalysts and thin film systems.
Read the lineFood preservation
Gas mixtures and modified atmosphere packaging that extend shelf life and reduce the need for additives.
Read the lineWater treatment
Applied work on industrial wastewater, neutralisation and water used in the leisure industry.
Read the lineSimulation and modelling
Molecular simulation and process modelling used alongside experiments across all research lines.
Read the lineLife cycle assessment
Systematic assessment of the net environmental effect of new processes and products.
