THOR (Techno-economical Hydrogen Optimised Renewable-Fuels Project) brings together game-changing innovation in electrolysis from the UK and a burgeoning market opportunity for renewable methanol in Australia. Demand is driven by the requirement for green molecules globally, the marine sector's push to methanol and Australia's abundance of renewable resou...

In recent years the technology required to localise a person in space with centimetre-level precision has matured e.g. Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping, Computer Vision and highly accurate GPS. Despite the obvious applications in helping blind persons navigate, these _AI-driven localisation_ technologies have not found widespread use within the visio...

RAPAT is a simple, effective, downloadable software tool helping innovators understand and overcome regulatory and standards-related barriers to product development and acceptance, and facilitate funding and faster technology deployment. RAPAT was originally developed and made freely available to help innovators responding to urgent requirements for medic...

There has been an unprecedented response by many organisations and individuals to help provide the vast quantities of essential medical and personal protective equipment urgently needed by healthcare and social care workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. The press have indicated many workers do not have sufficient supplies of this essential equipment and a...

This project addresses the need for high integrity offshore oil and gas well abandonment plugs, required for the North Sea in the upcoming wave of platform removals (decommissioning). Currently, wells are abandoned through plugging the well bore with two columns of cement up to 160 meters in length. The industry has concerns over the cost and long term se...

Bismuth and its alloys expand upon solidification in a similar manner to the way water expands upon freezing to form ice. Some of these alloys are highly resistant to corrosion, and combined with the alloy expansion extreme life sealing applications can cope with harsh aqueous environments. The combined properties of low melting point and subsequent expan...
