energy conversion, solar fuels production and various separation processes for industrial effluent treatment and material recycling. Past and present research projects have all been aimed at solving industrial problems and involved experimental and numerical modelling components. The typical strategy we follow in our projects begins with theoretical (thermodynamic) assessment of a given problem, followed by small-scale experimental investigations and micro-kinetic modelling, culminating in full system design, operation, characterisation and scale-up.</p> </div> <div class="flexible fixed "> <div class="heading"> <h2 class="title">Research Showcases</h2> </div> <div class="row equal-height-columns">  <div class="flexible__item"> <div class="media-item full secondary reverse equal-height"> <a href="/a-z-research/electrochemical-systems-laboratory/research/semiconductor---liquid-interfaces/"> <div class="media"> <img src="https://pxl-imperialacuk.terminalfour.net/fit-in/720x462/prod01/channel_3/media/migration/research-groups/FlatBandLogo2--tojpeg_1588363810657_x4.jpg" srcset=" https://pxl-imperialacuk.terminalfour.net/fit-in/360x231/prod01/channel_3/media/migration/research-groups/FlatBandLogo2--tojpeg_1588363810657_x4.jpg 360w, https://pxl-imperialacuk.terminalfour.net/fit-in/720x462/prod01/channel_3/media/migration/research-groups/FlatBandLogo2--tojpeg_1588363810657_x4.jpg 720w, https://pxl-imperialacuk.terminalfour.net/fit-in/1440x924/filters:upscale()/prod01/channel_3/media/migration/research-groups/FlatBandLogo2--tojpeg_1588363810657_x4.jpg 1440w, https://pxl-imperialacuk.terminalfour.net/fit-in/2880x1848/filters:upscale()/prod01/channel_3/media/migration/research-groups/FlatBandLogo2--tojpeg_1588363810657_x4.jpg 2880w," sizes=" (min-width: 1520px) 453px, (min-width: 1025px) calc((100vw - 146px) / 2), (min-width: 930px) calc((100vw - 114px) / 2), (min-width: 768px) calc((100vw - 64px) / 2), calc(100vw - 48px)" alt="1" /> </div> <div class="content"> <h3 class="title">Semiconductor-liquid interfaces</h3> <p>We analyse and compare different experimental methods for characterising semiconductor | liquid interfaces in situ and determining a vital parameter called the flat band potential. <br /></p> <p> <span class="link primary">Read more</span> </p> </div> </a> </div> </div>   <div class="flexible__item"> <div class="media-item full info reverse equal-height"> <a href="/a-z-research/electrochemical-systems-laboratory/research/photoelectrochemical-reactors/"> <div class="media"> <img src="https://pxl-imperialacuk.terminalfour.net/fit-in/720x462/prod01/channel_3/media/migration/research-groups/PhotoReactorLogo2--tojpeg_1588363770143_x4.jpg" srcset=" https://pxl-imperialacuk.terminalfour.net/fit-in/360x231/prod01/channel_3/media/migration/research-groups/PhotoReactorLogo2--tojpeg_1588363770143_x4.jpg 360w, https://pxl-imperialacuk.terminalfour.net/fit-in/720x462/prod01/channel_3/media/migration/research-groups/PhotoReactorLogo2--tojpeg_1588363770143_x4.jpg 720w, https://pxl-imperialacuk.terminalfour.net/fit-in/1440x924/filters:upscale()/prod01/channel_3/media/migration/research-groups/PhotoReactorLogo2--tojpeg_1588363770143_x4.jpg 1440w, https://pxl-imperialacuk.terminalfour.net/fit-in/2880x1848/filters:upscale()/prod01/channel_3/media/migration/research-groups/PhotoReactorLogo2--tojpeg_1588363770143_x4.jpg 2880w," sizes=" (min-width: 1520px) 453px, (min-width: 1025px) calc((100vw - 146px) / 2), (min-width: 930px) calc((100vw - 114px) / 2), (min-width: 768px) calc((100vw - 64px) / 2), calc(100vw - 48px)" alt="1" /> </div> <div class="content"> <h3 class="title">Photoelectrochemical reactors</h3> <p>We measure water splitting efficiencies in up-scaled PEC reactors.
