- Additional information
- A ground-breaking work, the first to explore suitable predictive mathematical models to provide a thorough understanding of controlled periodic illumination, influencing the scrutiny and adoption of novel light sources such as UV-LEDs. Intermittent illumination of catalysts has long been energetically desirable however conventional lamps fail under repeated on-off switching. The work was funded by the Scottish Funding Council through the Northern Research Partnership's research pooling initiative in Engineering. The work has been used by COGERH, a water company in Brazil, to inform reactor design for photocatalytic processes (Dr Mario U.G. Barros, mario.barros@cogerh.com.br).
