Heterogeneous catalysis is a key enabler of the chemical industry from refinery to pharmaceuticals. The sectors within which this process has applications includes the pharmaceutical, research and commercial product development, manufacturing and sustainable energy sectors (such as Biodiesel). This programme is designed to give students the practical skills to undertake…
When: 27 June 2023, 10:30 – 18:00 BSTWhere: Department of Chemistry, University of York, Heslington, York, YO10 5DD, North Yorkshire, United Kingdom NMR spectroscopy has played pivotal role in catalytic research – both in homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. The power of the technique comes from its ability to identify and…
On the 17th and 18th of July the UK Catalysis Hub will host its annual summer conference and networking meeting. The Conference will take place at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, Harwell Campus, Oxfordshire. The event will be a hybrid event so we will have the option to attend virtually for those who can’t attend in…
Nium, was formed in 2022 with the ambitious goal of mitigating at least 10 million tonnes of emissions to the earth’s atmosphere a year by 2030. How are we going to do that? We employ nanotechnology and engineering to reduce emissions in the current chemical industry. Currently Nium is specifically…
As a member of this team, your primary role will be to design and develop novel fixed bed reactors, optimizing their heating methods to achieve maximum efficiency. You will use both thermocatalytic and microwave-based cold plasma techniques to activate chemical reactions, aiming to enhance product yield. Working closely with a…
To celebrate British Science Week we share Dr Yagya Regmi and Dr Laurie King’s thoughts on the importance of catalysis for achieving a net zero society andour most popular webinar on Catalysing green hydrogen generation. It is critical to develop a broad portfolio of affordable and efficient technologies that can…
It is critical to develop a broad portfolio of affordable and efficient technologies that can manage and ultimately overcome the climate crisis. The burden of developing such technologies to reverse the adverse effects of emissions without compromising the living standards lie with the scientific and engineering community in both academia…
A Research Associate position is available for 15 months with Prof. Mulholland in the Centre for Computational Chemistry at the University of Bristol. This project involves development, application and demonstration of interactive virtual reality software and methods for design, molecular modelling and simulation of proteins and catalysts. It includes development…
