The Sustainable Environment Research Centre
(SERC) at the University of
Glamorgan, (UK) has a wide range of projects investigating the development
of anaerobic processes for waste remediation and energy generation including
biohydrogen production and bioelectrochemical systems as
well as conventional anaerobic digestion. Other areas of expertise include
environmental analysis, process monitoring and control, advanced oxidation
processes, hydrogen energy systems integration, biosystems modelling and energy
systems analysis. These projects are funded by the UK research councils and the
European Union and are often in collaboration with industry and other
universities. Major projects include the EPSRC funded SUPERGEN Biological Fuel
Cells consortium where the centre is the team leader of microbial systems, as
well as the EPSRC SUPERGEN Sustainable Hydrogen Energy Consortium and a FP6
Marie Curie TOK project (BIOSPEC). The team has 7 fulltime academic staff
members and 14 research associates and PhD students.
