Three PhD studentships are available in the Rosseinsky Group, University of Liverpool, as part of a Prosperity Partnership grant between the Universities of Liverpool and Oxford, and Unilever, investigating new catalysts for sustainable consumer products. For more information and to apply visit: Metal-organic framework derived multi-metallic catalysts and catalytic functionalisation…
The development of a prototype for the UKCH catalysis data infrastructure (CDI) presents a dashboard listing of publications, datasets, and authors data. The data is presented as indicators that demonstrate the impact of the UKCH, providing insight into the number and types of publications, author statistics, institutional collaborations, and research…
This talk will provide short vignettes across my career, which began in academic heterogeneous catalysis research, moved though pharmaceutical process R&D, and back into academia, exploring homogeneous catalysis in the origin of biological homochirality. Research across chemistry and chemical engineering positions in three different countries led me from autocatalysis (automotive)…
Empirical potential structure refinement (EPSR) has been used to simulate and probe mixtures of benzene and cyclohexane when confined in the pores of MCM-41. This study has been enabled by the development of an innovative combined NMR and total neutron scattering system. This technique allows for time resolved chemical compositions that…
The intrinsic ability of zeolite H-ZSM-5 to convert methanol into hydrocarbons (MTH) promises a substantial impact on the petro-chemical industry due to its ability to provide better/renewable alternatives to the conventional fossil fuel based gasoline or polymer grade olefin processes [1,2]. It has triggered extensive research to understand the underlying…
