Lignin is a low-cost and renewable alternative precursor, as it is a readily available by-product of paper making and biorefining. Lignin is attractive for its sustainable origin, low cost and relatively high fibre yield after carbonisation. Over 70 million tonnes of lignin are extracted each year during paper and pulp manufacture. Extracted lignin is currently mostly burned for generating heat and electricity rather than value-added products.

Video-microscopy of blood vessels in the eye is difficult due to their movement out of the plane in which they are being analysed. Quick manual microscope refocusing is required to follow them but this is a skill which typically takes many years to master.
By introducing an automated refocussing process, the need for manual input is avoided and vascular flow can be readily studied over much longer time periods than has traditionally been convenient.

DyeRecycle has developed a technology solution that offers a unique low-cost circular model for the extraction, recovery and recycling of dyes from textile waste.
A green chemical solvent selectively extracts the dyes from waste fibres, leaving a decoloured fibre as a clean, dye-free input appropriate for mechanical and chemical fibre recyclers.
Uniquely, the dye-rich chemical (following extraction) can be used as a dye bath to recolour new fabrics, or the dye can be extracted and sold on. This is the first technology to introduce the concept of recycled synthetic dyes.

The Acoustic Sub-Aperture Imaging (ASAP) technology is developed by a team led by Prof. Mengxing Tang. ASAP enhances vascular imaging by reducing noise and increasing the strength of Doppler signal.
ASAP generates better ultrasound images by adjusting the signal processing chain. Specifically, the ASAP method splits the signal received by the ultrasound transducer into two sets before image reconstruction. Signals in both sets are then compared to reduce the uncorrelated noise. As a result, the ASAP process boosts the contrast of the reconstructed vascular structures.

This technology uses a monolayer of sub-wavelength plasmonic nanoparticles on top of a conventional LED chip, which act as a ‘meta-grid’, placed within the chip’s usual encapsulating packaging. This process significantly improved light extraction across the LED chip/encapsulant interface by reducing the Fresnel loss, improving the overall performance of the device. By localizing the surface-plasmon-enhanced light transmission through this nanoparticle meta grid, LED light extraction efficiency is increased by 15-18%, which also then reduces internal heating of the LED chip caused by reabsorption of the reflected light.

The partitions are made entirely of wood using a technique called kerfing, so will generate little carbon during their life cycle. The wooden partitions could be retrofitted to offices and houses meaning they would no longer have to be completely gutted every time the space is to be changed. Instead of throwing partitions away they can be easily stored unlike traditional material. This will of course dramatically reduce waste.
The partitions are not expensive to make, so if adopted on mass they should make housing more affordable.
The partitions are light weight, flexible and easy to store. Hence, using these instead of traditional materials makes housing far more adaptable.

In a fundamentally novel approach to CO2 capture, Dr Alex Forse and co-workers from the University of Cambridge have developed a class of sorbent materials in which the ability to absorb and desorb CO2 is controlled by electrochemistry. Traditional absorbents have been chosen because of their ability to strongly attract CO2 - but they also do not release it easily and often<br><br>require heating to several hundred degrees Celsius. In contrast, the charged sorbents release CO2 at <100°C.
