BiographyAdam obtained first class honours in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Bristol. During this time, he completed a year of study at McGill University, Montreal, where he was awarded the highest mark for his research project in fluid flows through porous media. Since then, Adam has joined the E-Futures Doctoral Training Centre, which has enabled him to join outreach programs and give energy-related presentations to both primary and secondary school children. During his first year of E-Futures, Adam won the opportunity to join a Summer School at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Guwahati, where he participated in Energy related discussions with students from around the world. Last year, Adam took time out of his PhD to become Operations Manager of a London-based nursery furniture company, where he co-ordinated a warehouse move and introduced new processes to improve efficiency in the workplace. In his spare time, Adam performs at open mic nights in Sheffield, where he plays guitar and harmonica. He also enjoys playing squash and learning salsa. |

ResearchSince being introduced to Prof. Zimmerman in 2011, Adam has become involved with microbubbles generated using fluidic oscillation. His current research is on 'Microbubble-Mediated CO2 Absorption and Solvent Regeneration', which is part of the larger 4CU project - a collaborative project between the Univerisities of Sheffield, Manchester, UCL and Queens University, Belfast - which aims to determine the feasibility of Carbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU): the process of converting CO2 into useful resources. |
