Ni Mg Mixed Metal Oxides for p-Type Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells (2015)
Journal Article
Zannotti, M., Wood, C. J., Summers, G. H., Stevens, L. A., Hall, M. R., Snape, C. E., Giovannetti, R., & Gibson, E. A. (2015). Ni Mg Mixed Metal Oxides for p-Type Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells. ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces, 7(44), 24556-24565. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsami.5b06170

Mg Ni mixed metal oxide photocathodes have been prepared by a mixed NiCl2/MgCl2 sol-gel process. The MgO/NiO electrodes have been extensively characterized using physical and electrochemical methods. Dye-sensitized solar cells have been prepared from... Read More about Ni Mg Mixed Metal Oxides for p-Type Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells.

Insights into the influence of the cooling profile on the reconstitution times of amorphous lyophilized protein formulations (2015)
Journal Article
Beech, K. E., Biddlecombe, J. G., van der Walle, C. F., Stevens, L. A., Rigby, S. P., Burley, J. C., Allen, S., Burley, J. C., & Allena, S. (2015). Insights into the influence of the cooling profile on the reconstitution times of amorphous lyophilized protein formulations. European Journal of Pharmaceutics and Biopharmaceutics, 96, 247-254. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejpb.2015.07.029

Lyophilized protein formulations must be reconstituted back into solution prior to patient administration and in this regard long reconstitution times are not ideal. The factors that govern reconstitution time remain poorly understood. The aim of thi...

Hygrothermal simulation-informed design of mesoporous desiccants for optimised energy efficiency of mixed mode air conditioning systems (2015)
Journal Article
Sarce Thomann, F., Hall, M. R., Mokaya, R., & Stevens, L. A. (2015). Hygrothermal simulation-informed design of mesoporous desiccants for optimised energy efficiency of mixed mode air conditioning systems. Journal of Materials Chemistry A, 3(33), 17290-17303. https://doi.org/10.1039/c5ta05162b

© The Royal Society of Chemistry. This paper describes an optimization technique using hygrothermal numerical modelling to determine an ideal and unknown isotherm in order to inform the design of optimised mesoporous desiccants. Their suitability for... Read More about Hygrothermal simulation-informed design of mesoporous desiccants for optimised energy efficiency of mixed mode air conditioning systems.

Experimental study of mercury removal from exhaust gases (2014)
Journal Article
Wdowin, M., Wiatros-Motyka, M. M., Panek, R., Stevens, L. A., Franus, W., & Snape, C. E. (2014). Experimental study of mercury removal from exhaust gases. Fuel, 128, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.fuel.2014.03.041

An initial study has been made of the use of synthetic zeolites for mercury capture from exhaust gases. Synthetic zeolites (Na-X and Na-P1), and for comparison a natural zeolite (clinoptilolite) and activated carbon with bromine (AC/Br) were tested f...

'Dry bases': Carbon dioxide capture using alkaline dry water (2014)
Journal Article
Dawson, R., Stevens, L. A., Williams, O. S., Wang, W., Carter, B. O., Sutton, S., Drage, T. C., Blanc, F., Adams, D. J., & Cooper, A. I. (2014). 'Dry bases': Carbon dioxide capture using alkaline dry water. Energy and Environmental Science, 7(5), 1786-1791. https://doi.org/10.1039/c3ee44124e

An alkaline form of 'dry water' - a 'dry base' - is prepared by the high-speed mixing of aqueous solutions of metal carbonates or organic amines with hydrophobic silica nanoparticles. Despite being mostly water, the dry base looks and flows like a po... Read More about 'Dry bases': Carbon dioxide capture using alkaline dry water.
