Surface engineering is a fascinating field that intersects with sustainability in numerous ways. As a seasoned professional in materials and surface engineering, I’ve witnessed firsthand how advancements in this area can lead to more sustainable practices and products. Surface engineering involves the modification of the outer layers of a component to enhance its physical properties, such as wear resistance, corrosion
As we approach Earth Day 2024, it’s important to reflect on the state of our planet and the actions we can take to protect it. This year’s theme, “Planet vs. Plastics,” highlights the urgent need to address plastic pollution and its devastating impact on the environment. But beyond reducing plastic waste, there are many other ways we can work towards
Data centres are the backbone of our digital world, powering everything from cloud computing to streaming services. However, as demand for data grows exponentially, so too does the environmental footprint of these facilities – especially in terms of water and energy consumption. In this blog post, we’ll explore how advances in materials science and surface engineering can help make data
