This discipline hopping proposal will allow the collaborators to move freely between Edinburgh and York on a part time basis over an initial two-year period, with a view to learning about each other's research expertise and developing a longer term focussed collaborative program. The general target is to develop green and sustainable catalysts for use in the liquid phase synthesis of fuels and fine and speciality chemicals. The project will involve the transfer of key skills in catalyst synthesis and characterisation equipment at York which will significantly enhance the engineer's (Tina Duren) understanding of heterogeneous catalysis and broaden her research expertise. This is a completely new field for her, which would not be easily available without the discipline hop. Likewise, the chemist (Karen Wilson) will gain access to Edinburgh's expertise in molecular simulation and gas phase adsorption facilities, providing hands on experience of how simulations can be used to model liquid and gas diffusion in porous media which will improve her ability to design new catalytic materials. There is limited understanding in the heterogeneous catalysis and green chemistry fields about liquid diffusion through nanoporous channels, hence the ultimate aim of this project will be to develop new well defined templated mesoporous catalysts, and to gain insight into the diffusional characteristics of liquid phase reactants through the porous media.

这个学科跳跃的建议将允许合作者之间自由移动爱丁堡和约克在最初的两年期间兼职的基础上，以期了解对方的研究专业知识，并制定一个长期的重点合作计划。总体目标是开发用于燃料和精细及特种化学品液相合成的绿色和可持续催化剂。该项目将涉及在约克的催化剂合成和表征设备的关键技能的转让，这将大大提高工程师（蒂娜杜伦）的多相催化的理解和扩大她的研究专长。这对她来说是一个全新的领域，如果没有学科的跳跃，这将是不容易获得的。同样，化学家（凯伦威尔逊）将获得爱丁堡的分子模拟和气相吸附设施的专业知识，提供模拟如何可以用来模拟多孔介质中的液体和气体扩散的经验，这将提高她的能力，设计新的催化材料。在多相催化和绿色化学领域中，人们对液体在纳米孔通道中的扩散了解有限，因此本项目的最终目标是开发新的定义明确的模板介孔催化剂，并深入了解液相反应物在多孔介质中的扩散特性。
