Abstract:
The Sustainable Energy, Air and Water Technology group (DuEL) focuses on four domains:
  • solar to chemical energy;
  • gas treatment and CO2 solutions;
  • water treatment and nutrient valorisation;
  • systems analysis and sustainability assessment.


The group aims to improve aquaculture practices, explore sustainable energy sources and develop innovative biotechnological solutions for various applications. The research cover various topics such as the use of purple bacteria as a protein ingredient in shrimp feed, the optimisation of microalgae production for protein and nutritional value, the exploration of hydrogen fuel production from seawater, the challenges of using hydrogen for maritime applications, etc.
