Summary
Multifunctional Platform for Chemical Manufacturing and Energy Materials. We aim to establish the first platform in Australia for the continuous production and in-situ characterisation of molecules and nanomaterials. This project expects to generate new knowledge in the area of functional materials using an interdisciplinary approach. The expected outcomes will be a unique analytical capability for rapid screening of synthetic and operational parameters, and unprecedented fundamental insight int ....Multifunctional Platform for Chemical Manufacturing and Energy Materials. We aim to establish the first platform in Australia for the continuous production and in-situ characterisation of molecules and nanomaterials. This project expects to generate new knowledge in the area of functional materials using an interdisciplinary approach. The expected outcomes will be a unique analytical capability for rapid screening of synthetic and operational parameters, and unprecedented fundamental insight into chemical reactions to inform the design and development of sustainable chemical processes. This proposal will provide significant benefits to cutting-edge research in catalysis, polymer engineering, separation science, CO2 capture and organic synthesis, to positively impact on the energy-manufacturing-environment nexus.Read moreRead less
Open framework organic materials for CO2 capture and conversion. The reduction of CO2 emissions from coal-fired power plants is a technological challenge of global significance. This project will address this challenge by developing a unique system, based upon open framework materials, that will selectively capture CO2 from gas streams and then catalyse its transformation into industrially useful chemicals.
