Low carbon technologies

Automotive engineering – efficient engines
Carbon capture and recycling
Experts in geo-chemistry and nanotechnology are developing innovative carbon recycling approaches, which aim to capture CO2 at point source and re-use it as an input for industrial products.
Low carbon energy systems
Our engineers offer expertise in low carbon energy systems including Combined Heat and Power (CHP), low emissions boilers and heating systems, efficient combustion processes.
Sustainable biofuels
We work with industry to improve and standardise used cooking oil based biofuels. Our chemists are also involved in the development of second generation biofuels from non food crops such as algae.
Green chemistry & nanotechnology
In the move to more sustainable products, processes and technologies industry will require input from chemists and nano technologists to rethink and redesign processes which to date may have employed harmful chemicals. Our experts can assist industry to develop alternative low impact chemistry and nano technology based solutions.
