- Email: pmljrh@leeds.ac.uk
- Thesis title: Functionalised ’engineered’ biochars and hydrochars for resource recovery and contaminant immobilisation - A mechanistic study
- Supervisor: Dr Andrew Ross, Dr Andy Brown
Research interests
Luke’s current research focuses on building a mechanistic understanding of the growth and environmental interaction of functional carbon materials derived from sustainable sources. This is primarily in the area of advanced synchrotron radiation techniques including: XANES/EXAFS, X-ray Raman Scattering, STXM and X-ray microtomography.
Qualifications
- MPhys(hons) with a year in the USA
