Catalysis research is very dependent on a wide range of computational and analytical techniques which allow catalyst structures to be determined and reaction mechanisms to be studied.
We have a number of staff involved in these underpinning principles and techniques, thus research is undertaken in theoretical modelling of the properties of materials, X-ray crystallography, structure, function and exploitation of biomolecular materials; bioprocess modelling and monitoring.
In addition, catalysis can be applied to research in a number of other fields and our members are active in:
