Dr Samuel Rowley-Neale
Lecturer
My profile
Biography
I specialise in the utilisation of electrochemical techniques for the testing and production of state-of-the-art clean energy storage and detection devices.
My research focuses on the application of cutting edge 2D advanced materials within 3D printing technologies to find new and future-proof ways of storing energy – my goal is to create a breakthrough technology that enables the rapid 3D printing of water electrolysers, as this will allow for the on-site and immediate generation of hydrogen gas, to be used as an energy source, within disaster relief scenarios. I also conduct fundamental research into the development of electrochemical heavy metal sensors in order to help their removal from our drinking water supply.
I am a passionate environmentalist (holding a degree in Zoology and an MSc in Environmental Management and Sustainable Development). This has led me to work with a plethora of local SMEs to educate them on renewable energy sources and develop next-generation fuel cell and hydrogen devices. As well as conducting research and liaising with local businesses.
Interests and expertise
The knowledge and skills I have learnt throughout my academic career have enabled me to become involved in my hobbies and interests in some very unique and interesting ways.
For example, in addition to my role as a Lecturer here at Manchester Metropolitan University I am the CEO of a drinks distillery. I learnt the experimental distillation processes that my distillery uses during higher education studying chemical processes.
Additionally, I have a passion for the field of Horology and have been able to apply my knowledge within the field of 2D-nanomaterials to embark on an exciting project to produce a watch, in collaboration with the legendary Dr Roger Smith OBE, that will never require servicing.
All of my successes and endeavours have resulted directly from the things I have learnt as as well as from the people I have had the fortune to be involved with. That’s why I believe Manchester Metropolitan University is such a great institution as it has world leading academics and facilities to teach and inform, whilst being situated in the heart of one of the worlds most interesting and exciting cities.
Projects
Knowledge Transfer Partnerships
- Dr Rowley-Neale and Professor Craig Banks in conjunction with AquaCheck Engineering embarked on a 36 month project in order to produce a portable electrochemical lead sensor. (2019-Present)
- Dr Rowley-Neale and Professor Craig Banks in conjunction with the European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC) partnered to investigate the application of 2D advanced materials as cost effective alternatives to precious metals within fuel cell technologies. (2019-2021)
Funded Projects
- CIRMAP is a Interreg North-West Europe funded project. In North West Europe, about 65 Mt of Recycled Fine Aggregates (RFA) are generated yearly from the crushing of Concrete Construction and Demolition Wastes and are disposed in landfills or in banks. In the meantime, 54 Mt of marine sands are extracted in zones where natural aggregate resources are missing, threatening fragile marine spaces. Reusing RFA in concrete would save natural resources.vCirmap will provide a new Mixture Proportioning Method (MPM) for the design of 3DP mortars with RFA and a new Design Methodology for Customized Shapes (DMCS).
- ECO-I is a European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) funded project. The business landscape has changed. The transition to a low carbon economy has already begun and this project helps SMEs develop new products and services, adopt a future-ready business model, and reduce the carbon intensity of your operations.
- Manchester Fuel Cell Innovation Centre (MFCIC) is a European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) funded project. The MFCIC landmark £4.1m state-of-the-art laboratories, leading the way in harnessing renewable energy. The Centre is exploring the pure science of the fuel cell itself, driving engagement with industry on a local, national and international scale, and developing the technology talent of tomorrow.
Research outputs
Prizes and awards
2018 EPSRC Clean energy grant - 100,000. The grant was to explore the use of 2D-MoS2 as a cost effective alternative to Pt within electrolysers, thereby allowing for a reduction in the cost of hydrogen making it more competitive with fossil fuel counterparts.
