Research Interests
1) Safety of lithium-ion batteries
- risk and hazards of failed batteries - fire, the origin of the vapour cloud, explosion
- prevention, mitigation and ways to deal with drastic outcomes of battery abuse/ failure
- environmental impact of lithium-ion batteries - the release of hazardous materials from spent and abused batteries
- a collaboration with Fire and Rescue Services on operation procedures to tackle battery fires
2) Micropollutants in the environment
- analytical method development
- fate, transport and interactions with environmental matrices
