When: 19 November, 15:00 Dr. Amanda Jarvis (Edinburgh) & Dr. Samantha Staniland (Johnson Matthey) Dr. Amanda Jarvis – A brief introduction to artificial metalloenzymesThis talk will briefly introduce artificial metalloenzymes (ArMs) ā biohybrid catalysts that aim to bring together the benefits of transition metal catalysts and enzymes. Using examples fromā¦
When: 27 October, 15:00 Prof. Nigel Scrutton (Manchester) will talk about biocatalyst engineering and engineering of microbial cell factories for chemicals production. Biocatalyst engineering and the engineering of microbial cell factories for chemicals production has promised to deliver new routes to chemicals production. Major hurdles to scaled production of chemicalsā¦
When: 1 October, 15:00Where: Watch Now Prof. Dr. Matthias Beller (LIKAT Rostock) gave a seminar on recent advancements in catalysis. Prof. Dr. Matthias Beller (LIKAT Rostock) will give a 40 minute seminar followed by questions and discussion. Matthias Beller studied chemistry at the University of Gƶttingen, where he completed hisā¦
When: 17 September 2020, 2 – 4pmWhere: Watch Now A joint virtual meeting between the Applied Catalysis Group (ACG) and UK Catalysis Hub. Speakers include: Dr. Christopher Mitchell (SABIC) – Laboratory scale testing of formed catalyst particles For many heterogeneously catalysed processes, the final commercial application requires the use ofā¦
When: 27 August, 15:00 – Watch now Dr. Simon Freakley (Bath) will give a seminar on production of H202. Hydrogen peroxide has a key role to play in developing clean chemical processes. The direct synthesis of hydrogen peroxide from H2 and O2 would represent an attractive atom efficient process whichā¦
When: 29 July 15:00 A 40 minute seminar given by Dr. Anthony Green (Manchester) and Prof. Nicholas Turner (Manchester) presenting an overview of the current state-of-the-art and challenges for future research. Click image below to watch a recording of the webinar:
When: 21 July 2020 – Watch Now Synchrotron X-ray diffraction computed tomography (XRD-CT) is a marriage between powder diffraction and computed tomography using a āpencilā beam approach. The spatially-resolved signals obtained with XRD-CT can reveal information that would otherwise be lost in bulk measurements, which opens up new possibilities inā¦
When: 23 June, 16:00 – Watch Now The subtleties of structure and bonding in compounds of the rare earths (Group 3 and the lanthanides) and actinides are still poorly-understood. However, their complexes can exhibit strong and tuneable Lewis acidity, high and tuneable reduction capacity, and the capacity for rapid ligandā¦
When: 28Ā May, 15:00 – Watch Now Opportunities for studying catalytic materials with intense radiation sources; what, where, when and how. It was in 1836 that Jƶns Jacob Berzelius provided the first, basic description of a catalyst and its properties. Both the breadth and depth of our understanding of catalysts andā¦
When: 23 April, 15:00 – Watch Now Over the past decades, a key objective for both the homogeneous and heterogeneous communities has been to develop āsingle siteā catalysts, in the hope of achieving extreme precision in terms of catalyst selectivity. There have been notable successes so that, taking homogeneous catalysisā¦
