COMPACT - Continuous Microsystem Production of Catalysts Technology

目前，欧洲特别是英国正在发展具有世界领先地位的纳米材料科学。人们对纳米尺度上的物理和化学相互作用的了解不断加深，不断揭示出具有广泛应用的新型材料，从催化、药物输送、传感器等。然而，由于缺乏能够以连续和可重复的方式大规模生产这些材料的制造技术，这些材料及其潜在影响的充分实现受到阻碍。该奖学金项目与EPSRC制造未来主题保持一致，将为下一代纳米结构材料和催化剂的大规模生产提供变革性技术。它的影响将使知识从实验室研究快速有效地转移到工业规模，这对于提高全球生活标准至关重要，同时为英国提供竞争优势。

Currently, there is outstanding world-leading nano-material science being developed in Europe and especially the UK. The growing understanding of the physical and chemical interactions at the nanoscale is constantly revealing novel materials with a wide range of applications from catalysis, drug delivery, sensors, etc. However, the full realisation of these materials and their potential impact is hindered by the lack of a manufacturing technology capable of their production in a continuous and reproducible manner in large scale. This Fellowship project, aligned with the EPSRC Manufacturing the Future theme, will deliver a transformative technology for the large production of the next generation of nano-structured materials and catalysts. Its impact will allow the fast and effective transfer of knowledge from lab research to industrial scale which is essential to enhance global life standards while providing competitive advantages to the UK.
