Birmingham researchers have devised a -closed loop- carbon recycling system that could radically reduce carbon dioxide emissions from the steelmaking industry Researchers from the University of Birmin

A new way of using colour to detect disease, inspired by the bright blue of certain corals and mushrooms, has been developed by chemists at Bath Stains that make specific components of a live cell light up under a microscope have become powerful tools for detecting disease and monitoring biological processes, but the choice of available stains is severely limited and all options on the market are imperfect.

Bath chemists have been awarded funding on two £1.5 million national projects on monitoring and improving water quality.

Two Imperial academics have won European Research Council grants to accelerate their ground-breaking research into materials and chemical engineering.

Here's a batch of fresh news and announcements from across Imperial. From flexible clothing sensors that detect body movement, to a newly-discovered toxin that can kill bacteria, here is some quick-read news from across the College. Flexible movement sensors researchers have developed flexible clothing sensors that can detect body movement, with potential applications in injury rehabilitation, human-computer interaction systems, and athletic training.

Imperial and BASF, the world's largest chemical producer, have begun a new phase in their strategic partnership to advance modern chemical production.

Three scientists from The University of Manchester have been awarded with prestigious prizes by The Royal Society of Chemistry for their research.

A team of scientists including Chemistry and Physics researchers from Bath has won the Royal Society of Chemistry's 2022 Faraday Division Horizon Prize.

Five individuals and two teams from the University of Oxford have received prestigious prizes from the Royal Society of Chemistry today.

New research into hydrogen and alternative low-carbon fuels set to begin in April with the aim of building a national Centre of Excellence An important new research project into how the UK could incr

Labelling of plastic products needs a drastic overhaul including a new "sustainability scale" to help consumers, researchers say.

£9 million research programme to reinvent chemical separation methods and significantly cut total global energy consumption begins A £9 million project to develop new chemical processing technology

Researchers from The University of Manchester and Harvard University have collaborated on a pioneering project in bioengineering, producing metal-free, hydrogel electrodes that flex to fit the complex shapes inside the human body.

Spinning Disc Mesh Reactor developed by Bath chemical engineers could make pharmaceuticals production safer and more sustainable Last updated on Thursday 11 February 2021 A new catalytic reactor that

Researchers from the Centre for Sustainable and Circular Technologies (CSCT) are part of a project to enable mixtures of plastics to be recycled together. Last updated on Wednesday 6 January 2021 Part of the problem with recycling plastics is that they have to be separated into different types as each type has different properties, meaning they can't be recycled together.

Led by Professor Rudolf Allemann from the School of Chemistry, the team have developed processes that have allowed the chemicals to be produced in large quantities and at a fraction of the price of traditional pesticides.

A project to develop surface treatments that can provide long-lasting protection against the COVID-19 virus has been launched at the University of Birmingham.
