- Additional information
- This is the first report to show drastic improvements on photonic efficiency of photocatalytic reactions under controlled periodic illumination and various pH conditions. This underpins the industry funded (NSA Ltd) project on wastewater reactor development (Dr Tom Johnston, tom@microspheretechnology.com) and led to further projects funded by Commonwealth Fellowships for international researcher exchanges between UK and developing countries (Project ID: 111783, 2017) and Global Challenge Research Funding (RGU internal funding) on ‘safe drinking water’ in India, Sri Lanka & Brazil to develop standalone water treatment reactors for rural communities. This led to two keynote talks (ICMST16, Pala & ICSEE, Chennai, 2019).
