Empowering clean water whilst safeguarding water distribution pipeline integrity: Towards manganese- and iron-free lime hydrate for water treatment (2023)
Journal Article
Wadhawan, J. D., Kocsis, D., Meyer, C., Ward, R., Thompson, M., Prior, T. J., Kelly, S. M., & Lawrence, N. (2023). Empowering clean water whilst safeguarding water distribution pipeline integrity: Towards manganese- and iron-free lime hydrate for water treatment. Environmental Science: Water Research & Technology, https://doi.org/10.1039/d2ew00109h

Hydrated limes are amongst the most economically valuable alkalis used by the water industry for the treatment of potable water. They are typically manufactured from the thermal decomposition of high purity limestones. However, the latter contain bot...

Electrochemical quantification of D-glucose during the production of bioethanol from thermo-mechanically pre-treated wheat straw (2021)
Journal Article
Ward, R. A., Charlton, A., Welham, K. J., Baker, P., Zein, S. H., Tomkinson, J., Richards, D. I., Kelly, S. M., Lawrence, N. S., & Wadhawan, J. D. (2021). Electrochemical quantification of D-glucose during the production of bioethanol from thermo-mechanically pre-treated wheat straw. Electrochemistry communications, 124, Article 106942. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.elecom.2021.106942

Mechanical pre-treatment (disc refining) of wheat straw, at both atmospheric and elevated pressure, is shown to be an efficient process to access fermentable monosaccharides, with the potential to integrate within the infrastructure of existing first...
