Reducing waste of consumables in chemical reactions promises to solve environmental problems as well as enable novel applications in space. This project aims to establish a revolutionary fluid handling technology that lowers waste in the labs and in satellites. The project deciphers the fundamental physics behind our recent discovery of encapsulating a tiny liquid content in a solid shell, allowing for handling liquid samples like solid particles. Examples of the benefit of this project are more precise detection of bacteria on earth and compact reactors in space. The research outcomes are instrumental for promoting a clean environment, good health, and creating new business opportunities, particularly in space industry, for Australians.

减少化学反应中消耗品的浪费有望解决环境问题并实现太空中的新应用。该项目旨在建立一种革命性的流体处理技术，以减少实验室和卫星中的废物。该项目破译了我们最近发现的将微小液体成分封装在固体壳中的基本物理原理，从而可以像固体颗粒一样处理液体样品。该项目的好处包括更精确地检测地球上的细菌和太空中的紧凑型反应堆。研究成果有助于促进澳大利亚人的清洁环境、健康和创造新的商机，特别是在航天工业方面。
