- Additional information
- This work formed the first of the series of collaborative works between Universities in the UK and Canada, funded by Canadian research council and industry. Low cost protein based structures were used to bio-absorb toxic ions from waste-water. In contrast to other reported research, this work utilised a less complicated simulated process fluid and established the technique in the laboratory. In later stage of the project, the technique was expanded to other ions and proteins. The use of low cost functional structures in novel and demanding applications highlighted the need for the multi-discipline approach.
