Professor A J Guwy heads up the Sustainable Environment Research Centre within the School of Applied Sciences at the University of Glamorgan. After completing his PhD on the monitoring and control of anaerobic processes he continued as a postdoctoral RA for six years on FP 4 and BTSW BBSRC/LINK programmes. He is a Chartered Chemist with 16 years experience in optimisation of biological and chemical treatment processes with particular expertise in anaerobic process technology. He is a Western European representative of the International Water Association (IWA)'s Special Interest Group in Anaerobic Digestion, the UK representative on the Anaerobic Task Group on Harmonization of Anaerobic Biodegradation, Activity and Inhibition and represents the UK on the International Energy Association's Biohydrogen Task Group. He sits on the management boards of the Wales Waste Resource Research Centre (WWRReC) and the Wales Energy Research Centre (WERC) and an EPSRC peer review college member. He is the Director of the recently formed EU funded Waste Treatment Technology Network (WTTN) and the European Social Funded Waste Treatment Technology training consortium for Wales. His research interests include biological treatment processes for waste reduction and renewable energy production and process monitoring and control. He has particular interest in the anaerobic treatment technologies. Currently his research has focussed on the optimisation of anaerobic fermentation to produce bioenergy in the form of hydrogen gas from sustainable sources. Current externally funded projects total over £2 million including 2 EPSRC SUPERGENs, 3 EU Marie Curie fellowships, 1 EU FP6 2EPSRC CASE, and Carbon Trust |
