Summary
An advanced thermogravimetric analysis system for world-leading research in clean energy, catalysis, material science and nanotechnology. Many chemical reactions occurring in solid materials during heating significantly affect the materials' stability, and subsequently affects the processes of production of clean energy, material synthesis, catalyst preparation, and nanotechnology. No equipment currently exists in Australia that will mitigate the wide range of conditions in such reactions in ma ....An advanced thermogravimetric analysis system for world-leading research in clean energy, catalysis, material science and nanotechnology. Many chemical reactions occurring in solid materials during heating significantly affect the materials' stability, and subsequently affects the processes of production of clean energy, material synthesis, catalyst preparation, and nanotechnology. No equipment currently exists in Australia that will mitigate the wide range of conditions in such reactions in materials processing. This situation impedes research progress in Australia, disadvantages Australian research students, and ultimately makes our research less competitive internationally. The establishment of the proposed apparatus will increase the competitiveness of Australian science and engineering, and contribute to the development of new Australian technologies that are important to the Australian economy and to environmental sustainability.Read moreRead less

The Research Network for Engineering a Secure Australia (RNESA) is a multi-disciplinary collaboration established to strengthen Australia's science and technology capacity for protecting the Nation's critical infrastructure from natural or human-caused disasters. RNESA will facilitate a knowledge sharing network for government, universities and the private sector to produce innovative engineering solutions to the emerging security problems relating to the safety of critical infrastructure. This initiative will draw together researchers across disciplines to identify a roadmap for future R&D in this area. RNESA's final outcomes will lead to multi-hazard mitigation strategies and a real-time crisis support network to enable the nation to manage potential disasters.Read moreRead less
