Luke is a recent doctoral graduate in chemical engineering catalysis from The University of Newcastle, Australia. He is currently working as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Newcastle across several diverse projects including the green production of fine chemicals from waste products, natural Australian zeolites for greenhouse gas mitigation and advanced X-ray absorption (XAS)/Infrared (FTIR) characterisation of catalysts and reactions.

The in situ X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) was measured in the titanium-peroxo system supported by titanium silicalite-1 (TS-1). After this, the complex was heated, in line with previous in situ FTIR studies, in order to reproduce the catalytic conditions in those studies which demonstrate a reaction pathway to reaction products other than epoxides, namely, carbonyls, which have not been reported previously on this type of catalyst.
