Projects
Membranes
Membrane research has been the core interest of the Ladewig Group since first forming an independent research group at Monash University in 2009. The main focus of the work now is on metal organic framework membranes.
Promise
The Promise project is a DFG funded Research Unit, and is a collaboration with Uni Freiburg and KIT Karlsruhe. Bradley Ladewig is the leader of Project 3 (TP3) on photochemical reactors.
AMD4energy
Accelerated materials development for Advanced Energy Applications
Machine Learning
This is a preliminary project exploring the potential for Machine Learning in Chemical Engineering research. It is a collaboration with Alexander Stroh and Pascal Friederich with assistance from Matthias Schniewind (PhD student of Pascal Friederich).
