Co-processing of renewable and fossil fuel feedstocks in traditional refinery units
Research Group:
Mechanical and Process Engineering
The simulation model of Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) unit and many other refinery processes maximize the yields of fuels such as gasoline, diesel, propylene and minimize the yields of CO2. Read more
Post-Oil Imagination: creative practices as prefigurative actions towards post-fossil fuel worlds
This research project investigates how oil capitalism is contested at the scale of creative practice. Read more
Photocatalysis for Energy Applications
The energy production has become a growing concern in recent times with over 80% of the global energy consumption relying on the use of fossil fuels. Read more
Computational analysis of the flow through aerofoil cascades
One of the major global concerns is the environmental pollution from the burning of fossil fuels, and there is a growing awareness of the impact of emission from the shipping industry using fossil fuel as a power source. Read more
Techno‐Economic Impact of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS)
Research Group:
Mechanical and Process Engineering
The reduction of emissions of greenhouse gases is agreed in November 2016 in the Paris international agreement (IEA Dec. 2016). The agreement is expected to create a transformative change in the energy sector to combat climate change. Read more
Establishing historical biodiversity baselines to guide UK wetland and freshwater rewilding
Restoring British natural landscapes through species reintroductions and rewilding is an increasingly widespread paradigm for environmental management. Read more
Rational design of 3D porous structured electrodes for redox flow battery applications
The rapid decarbonisation of the global energy systems requires the wholesale replacement of fossil fuels with renewable resources (e.g., wind, solar). Read more
Bioplastic from Sustainable Feedstock - Tackling the Plastic Challenge
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) is a class of polyesters produced by various Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria as carbon and energy storage reserves. Read more

Sustainable Alternative Routes to Chemicals and Fuels via Catalytic Hydrogenation
The global climate emergency presents pressing challenges around identifying sustainable routes to fuels and chemicals, the production of which currently relies on fossil and other unsustainable resources. Read more
Sustainable Alternative Routes to Chemicals and Fuels from Carbon Dioxide
The global climate emergency presents pressing challenges around identifying sustainable routes to fuels and chemicals, the production of which currently relies on fossil and other unsustainable resources. Read more
Carbon capture from gas turbines
Natural gas is seen as cleaner than other fossil fuels and will continue to have an essential role in the energy mix of the future, particularly in the UK. Read more
Pilot plant experimental work - 250 kW PACT facility - zero emission strategies - coal- biomass and bio-CCS
Fossil fuel will remain a significant contributor to power generation around the world as countries develop and realise their economic and social potentials through industrial growth and increase in people’s standard of living. Read more
Centres for Doctoral Training - 4 Year PhD Studentships
The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) is the main UK government agency for funding research and training in engineering and the physical sciences, investing more than £850m a year. Read more
