Multi-million pound Inter-Disciplinary Research Programme on Porous Nanomaterials is Underway

Description: The ChemEnSus project is a five year, £5 million EPSRC funded programme aiming to apply coordination chemistry to the generation of new multi-functional porous materials to provide innovative solutions for key issues around environmental and chemical sustainability. The project will develop new materials that have applications in hydrogen and gas storage, sieving and purification, carbon capture, chemical reactivity and sensing. One of the key targets is to achieve high capacity hydrogen storage at ambient temperatures, thereby overcoming a major technological barrier that will allow hydrogen to realise its potential as a viable, clean replacement for fossil fuels.
