The carbon capture group at the University of Edinburgh's School of Engineering is one of the largest carbon capture research groupings in the United Kingdom, looking at capture and transportation of carbon dioxide. We have two main fields of interest: adsorption and power plant engineering, within which the members of the group possess a broad range of research expertise.
Professor Khellil Sefiane initiated a project with his colleagues at Northumbria University to develop an innovative concept to harvest energy from carbon dioxide for generating power using the Leidenfrost phenomenon.
Professor Jason Reese has been awarded the 2015 Lord Kelvin Medal by the Royal Society of Edinburgh for his "outstanding contribution to the field of Engineering both within the UK and internationally and for [his] commitment to the public engagement of science".
The Industrial Fluid Properties Simulation Challenge is an open yearly competition organized by the Computational Molecular Science and Engineering Forum (CoMSEF) of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE), the American Chemical Society (ACS), Army Research Lab, Boeing, National Inst
