Third time is the charm!
Our final year PhD student, Dan Telford, could finally do his final experiments with neutron diffraction at @isisneutronmuon, where he used the reactor he designed and built!
Thanks to all the members of team involved for the effort!!

Can we boost CO2 capture performance on hybrid molten salt-ceramic membranes even further? Studies to date focus on the molten phase alone. Find out how careful engineering of grain boundary interfaces in the ceramic phase can add a new level of functionality in our new article!

🚨 New paper alert 🚨
Published at the end of last week in @SepPurifTech, molten-carbonate membranes for #CO2 capture with freeze-cast ceramic supports!
With gratitude to collaborators @ITQ_UPVCSIC and funders @EPSRC, @ERC_Research, and @RAEngNews.
