A webinar from Dr. Jennifer Edwards, Cardiff University, Senior Lecturer in Catalytic and Physical Chemistry and Director of EDI.
On exposure to water, air and sunlight photocatalysts will generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) that have high oxidising potentials. These ROS can be used in a range of innovative cleaning applications-reducing viral and bacterial loads on surfaces, fabrics and in water. This talk will summarise our advances in creating new solutions for disinfection and cleaning, using just sunlight air and water.
Dr Edwards was included in one of 11 project teams to present their research to Bill Gates during a poster session at the Grand Challenges Annual Meeting in October 2023.
