Collaborations and Links
The Ladewig Group collaborates with a number of national and international institutions and companies. This includes joint research programs, the provision and exchange and materials and membranes, and of course the exchange of students and staff. Some details and links are below.
Professor Kaisong Zhang 张凯松
Institute for Urban Environment
Chinese Academy of Sciences, Xiamen, China
Kaisong Zhang and Bradley Ladewig collaborate in the field of polymer and polymer composite membranes for water treatment, gas separation and electrochemical applications. He has an extremely well equipped laboratory in modern buildings in Xiamen, China. He has previously spent six months as a visiting Professor at Monash University, and PhD students Rebecca Yee and Jian Huang have both spent time both at Monash University and IUE, Xiamen.
Dr Dan Brett
Senior Lecturer in Energy
Department of Chemical Engineering
University College London
Dan is an expert in the design, investigation and characterisation of fuel cells and related electrochemical devices. He first collaborated with Bradley Ladewig when they were both at Imperial College London. They now collaborate in the area of novel fuel cells, in particular anion exchange membrane fuel cells.
Professor Jurg Keller
Director
Advanced Water Management Centre
The University of Queensland
Professor Keller is Director of the Advanced Water Management Centre, which he founded at UQ. He and Bradley Ladewig collaborate in the area of bioelectrochemical devices (often referred to as microbial fuel cells) for wastewater treatment. They share an ARC Discovery Grant (Reference: DP110100539).
Dr Jochen Meier-Haack
Membrane Group Leader
Leibniz Institute for Polymer Research Dresden
Dr Meier-Haack is a membrane materials development specialist. Bradley Ladewig will spend the period Feb-May 2012 on sabbatical in Dr Meier-Haack's research group, along with Ben Asquith. They will work together developing membrane materials for use in membrane capacitive deionisation for water desalination.
