I've been signed up by my wife (thanks Emily :)) to swim Laps for Life in March to raise funds for ReachOut Australia, a provider of online mental health support services for young people. For more than 20 years, ReachOut has been…lnkd.in/gCeyhM2f lnkd.in/gcSSVwqB

One of the best things about working in School of Chemical Engineering UQ is the opportunity to work with people like Bev Coulter. Thanks Bev for all your efforts and always being someone we can rely on for help when its needed:) lnkd.in/g6wnPEUk

I seem to be getting more invites to join a "conference organizing committee" of events that appear to already be a long way down the path of being organized. Some invites are clearly predatory spam/scam emails that go straight to trash, but other emails…lnkd.in/gZ3aJgUr

Here's our team's latest article in the Journal of Cleaner Production reporting modelling studies for carbon recycling around a ironmaking blast furnace by integration of a process for CO2 electrolysis to CO. Well done Yichao Hu on…lnkd.in/g6_xY2a3 lnkd.in/g4y2qzwP

Way back late 2007, I took some waste coffee grounds from the kitchen back into the lab to make supercapacitor electrodes because (1) the waste coffee grounds bin on the auto coffee machine needed emptying, and (2) I was frustrated by time required to pre…lnkd.in/gTtqxy28

Happy to share a fresh paper for 2023, which is a review of how organic molecules are involved in Cu-based electrocatalysts for CO2 electrolysis to C2+ products. This review was led by Drs Ping Chen and Zhiliang W. in UQ School of Chemical Engineering UQ…lnkd.in/gtrQuJQ4
