At our staff meeting on Wednesday 3 November 2021, 81 members of the School of Engineering community were honoured for their work on the Covid-19 pandemic response.
Four technicians from the School of Engineering have been shortlisted for the Papin Prizes, the UK’s only award dedicated to celebrating technical excellence and innovation in higher education and research.
Professor Maria-Chiara Ferrari is working on a £9M multi-university project to develop new chemical processing technology that could save hundreds of millions of tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.
The £25M inward investment – by Danish family-owned multinational Danfoss – will be home to Danfoss Editron, which will advance electric and hybrid powertrain systems for heavy-duty vehicles to reduce energy consumption in hydraulic machines radically.
