Samples in powdered form (instead of single-crystals) have been studied due to their broader applicability in catalysis. We have developed a new structural methodology by combining state-of-the-art synchrotron X-ray facilities with other characterisation techniques, that can: • Directly visualise how organic molecules behave and interact with the BAS of zeolites • Provide mechanistic information for important industrial processes • Engineer new catalytic system for industrial processes • Explain the reaction mechanisms and kinetics of new biomass conversion reactions • Design a novel enzyme-mimic inorganic system Qualification MChem (Oxon) DPhil (Oxon) ORCID ID 0000-0002-4853-0196 Department of Applied Biology & Chemical Technology Department of Applied Biology & Chemical Technology
