University Research Centres
BHP Centre for Sustainable Steelmaking Research
With the global shift to low-carbon iron and steelmaking technologies, the BHP Centre for Sustainable Steelmaking Research is at the forefront of innovation in low-carbon cokemaking, modified blast furnace and alternative iron and steelmaking processes.
Centre for Bulk Solids and Particulate Technologies
The Centre for Bulk Solids and Particulate Technologies (CBSPT) is actively involved in both fundamental and applied research on a range of problems associated with bulk solids and particulate technology. Research areas include storage, flow, processing and transportation of bulk solids. CBSPT also provides specialist courses for industry through its professional development programs.
Centre for Critical Minerals and Urban Mining
The Centre for Critical Minerals and Urban Mining is concerned with the science and engineering of particulate systems relevant to industries of national significance, such as in the mineral resources area. We seek to develop faster and more efficient separation technologies, and technologies for the manufacture, storage, and transport of particles.
Centre for Innovative Energy Technologies
The Centre for Innovative Energy Technologies conducts cutting edge research on emerging energy technologies, with particular focus on the abatement of greenhouse gases, and clean and sustainable energy production.
Innovative Centre for Advanced Nanomaterials
