We have extensive laboratories with equipment from bench to pilot-plant scale. We are one of the few departments in the UK with access to mass spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy and a ‘virtual-reality’ suite where you can construct and optimise your own complete processing plant.
Postgraduate students also have access to research facilities including a range of equipment, for example:
- total organic carbon
- strong acid digestion of rocks
- research test rigs - multiphase flow
- drop tube furnance
- flows in pipe rig
- microwave centre
