James Chadwick Building - Industrial Hub for Sustainable Engineering

The James Chadwick Building is available for industrial collaborations. It houses four floors of pilot and bench top scale chemical engineering equipment, and an experienced technical team dedicated to this facility. The facility is supported by knowledgeable and passionate academic staff, some of which have been involved in the design of the equipment. These teams are available for support over the project lifetime and can assist with the equipment design and testing and obtaining and analysing results.

The industrial hub for sustainable engineering aims to develop novel sustainable processes by academic and research staff and put these into commercial application.

The building infrastructure includes:
- Electricity supply, including high voltage
- Piped fuel gases (hydrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, methane and natural gases)
- Compressed air and nitrogen
- Cooling water and towns water
- Ventilated laboratories and fume cupboards

Within the industrial hub there are many labs and working areas each with their own area of expertise and academic lead.
