Exploiting polyolefin materials to create a circular economy is possible via catalytic chemical recycling, as they represent a highly refined hydrocarbon source with similarities to crude oil, and this is…
Catalysis is one of the most complex and diverse phenomenon in synthetic science. It can be classified in various ways, although mostly often this is done based on the physical…
This talk will give an overview of my experiences in academia and my path to becoming an academic, hopefully offering advise and guidance for anybody thinking of going into a career in…
Dr Rachel Cowen, Academic Lead for Equality, Diversity and Inclusion at the University of Manchester will share her perspective on current UK research and innovation practices and culture. She will highlight the…
In this lecture, I will discuss the role of the support in directing the nanostructures of monometallic and bimetallic nanoparticles. The role of support in relation to the catalytic properties…
The chemical composition and structure of the catalyst surface is critical in determining the reactivity and selectivity of a catalyst. The techniques of surface analysis are able to provide the…
Diversity and inclusion, with respect to gender, nationality, culture, sexuality, etc… is unfortunately still missing in most places, and universities are definitely not a front runner. Research has shown that…
The investigation of reaction mechanisms in catalysis is especially challenging due to the combination of fast transient changes and the complexity of the reactions that occur under normal operating conditions.…
