º£½ÇºÚÁÏ

A bike helmet that ‘eats’ air pollution and a virtual reality office simulator for home workers are a few of the ideas on show from Product Design and Manufacture students at the º£½ÇºÚÁÏ.

A team of researchers at the º£½ÇºÚÁÏ are using state-of-the-art 3D print manufacturing methods to make personalised medicine a reality.

A carbon-neutral brewing business, charitable almshouses for older people and a revitalised community centre in the heart of Lenton are among the designs by º£½ÇºÚÁÏ students to reimagine and reinvigorate Nottingham City Centre.

Using a new 3D printing process, º£½ÇºÚÁÏ researchers have discovered how to tailor-make artificial body parts and other medical devices with built-in functionality that offers better shape and durability, while cutting the risk of bacterial infection at the same time.

The º£½ÇºÚÁÏ has received £1.3m to develop a novel, low-carbon energy storage system to supply cheap, on-demand heat for people living and working in UK neighbourhoods.

The º£½ÇºÚÁÏ is kick-starting a new £1m project to develop dual-use energy storage technology, capable of delivering hydrogen to a fuel cell and generating direct cooling for refrigeration.

The º£½ÇºÚÁÏ is part of a consortium awarded £250,000 to develop plans for Direct Air Capture (DAC) powered by the new Sizewell C nuclear power station proposed for Suffolk.

The º£½ÇºÚÁÏ is to lead the world’s largest trial to evaluate the viability of a material called biochar to store carbon from the atmosphere to counter the impact of climate change.

The º£½ÇºÚÁÏ has been awarded £7.6million by the D2N2 LEP towards the development of the £16.8M UK Electrification of Aerospace Propulsion Facility (UKEAPF).

Very thin layers of organic stabiliser residue in metal nanoparticle (MNP) inks are behind a loss of conductivity in 3D printed materials and electronic devices, according to the findings of a new study by the º£½ÇºÚÁÏ and the National Physical Laboratory.
