University of Bristol Core Equipment Award 2022

布里斯托尔大学已经选择支持对设备的投资，这些设备支持EPSRC在工程和科学学院的职权范围内的可持续性和研究。它将影响数十个研究项目和数百名研究人员，解决大学研究项目的关键战略重点。投资如下：金属添加剂制造能力使各种不同应用的研究人员能够进行更可持续的研究，方法是从根本上减少人工制品的质量，大幅减少产品“使用阶段”的碳排放以及减少原材料的使用-所有这些都是针对更广泛的可持续发展优先事项的研究领域，如低碳能源和运输。氦捕获和压缩系统，包括布里斯托尔大学中央核磁共振设施的11个超导核磁共振(核磁共振)磁体的沸腾捕获。这将使布里斯托尔数百名研究人员使用的这种关键的不可再生资源能够可持续地回收和循环利用，同时提供大量的财务成本节约(未来十年将节省数十万英镑)，其中大部分将落到EPSRC手中。

The University of Bristol has chosen to support investments in equipment which supports sustainability and research across EPSRC's remit in the Engineering and Science Faculties. It will impact dozens of research programs and hundreds of researchers, addressing key strategic priorities in University research programs. Investments are as follows:Metal Additive Manufacturing Capability enabling researchers across a range of different applications to conduct substantially more sustainable research by radically reducing the mass of manufactured artefacts, drastically cutting carbon emissions during the "use phase" of products as well as reduced use of raw materials - all in research areas that address broader sustainability priorities such as low carbon energy and transport.Helium capture and compression system, comprising boil-off capture for 11 superconducting NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) magnets in the University of Bristol centralised NMR Facility. This will enable sustainable recovery and recycling of this critical non-renewable resource that is used by hundreds of researchers in Bristol, while providing substantial financial cost-savings (several hundred thousand pounds over the next decade), the majority of which will fall to EPSRC.
