Nuclear FiRST DTC Team

The DTC involves staff from the Schools of Chemistry, Materials, Civil Engineering, Chemical Engineering and Earth Sciences at the University of Manchester and The Departments of Engineering Materials and Civil Engineering at The University of Sheffield.
The research interests of the participating staff broadly cover the whole nuclear fuel cycle, including: radiochemistry; molecular separations; radiation effects and modelling; nuclear decommissioning; radioactive waste immobilisation and disposal; materials degradation, corrosion and modelling; environmental contaminant transport; soil and groundwater remediation; and cell-mineral interface science; biogeochemistry.
