The Master of Industrial Research program is being provided through the ARC Industrial Transformation Training Centre for the Chemical Industries, an ARC centre funded across UNSW, the University of Melbourne and Swinburne University, CSIRO and several industry partners. ARC transformation training centres aim to foster engagement between university-based researchers and research end-users by providing training opportunities for HDR candidates in industry settings. Researchers graduating from the program will be highly skilled, workplace-ready technical employees and will assist in deepening the long-term partnerships between these chemical industries and the University. Each University partner will establish a Master of Industrial Research program which combines advanced academic training, industry skills and embedded industry experience. At UNSW, this will be structured with some disciplinary coursework, business skills related coursework, and an industry research project undertaken by the HDR candidate.This program involves a minimum of 1.5 years full-time study, maximum 2 years. The master’s thesis should be submitted for examination within 2 years of full-time study.

About

Concrete, which is made using industrial waste from steel manufacturing and coal-fired power stations, is being used in a trial in the roads of Sydney for the first time in the world.

UNSW Sydney researchers and the CRCLCL, CRC for Low Carbon Living will use these trial results to create industry guidelines for the very first set of geopolymer concrete.

“While we’ll monitor the road performance for up to five years, a lot of the data collected in the first three to 12 months of this world-first trial will be used to confirm our models and strengthen our predictions. Concrete contributes 7% of all greenhouse gas emissions and in 2018 the world produced about 4.1 billion tonnes of cement, which contributed about 3.5 billion tonnes of CO2. Alternative, low-CO2 concrete materials offer potential benefits in reducing the greenhouse gas emissions associated with conventional concrete. This trial is important because we need demonstration projects to accurately assess the performance of geopolymer over time so that there can be broader uptake,” said Craig Heidrich, executive director of Australian (Iron and Steel) Association and Ash Development Association.

According to the associate professor of sustainability research at UNSW, Dr Tommy Wiedmann, if all concrete produced was geopolymer in place of traditional concrete for one year - 12,000 kilotons of carbon di oxide would be saved.
