Dr. Graham Reed - Program Manager
Dr. Reed is the Program Manager of the Centre for Low Emissions
Technology (cLET) at the Queensland Centre for Advance Technology (QCAT). His current responsibilities at cLET involve the management of a
suite of projects targeted at improving gas processing in coal gasification systems as a route to reducing emissions of Greenhouse Gases
and other pollutants.
Before taking up this position he was a Research Associate in the Department of Chemical Engineering at Imperial College London, where he worked on measurement, control and modelling of toxic trace elements during the gasification and combustion of fossil fuels, biomass and wastes, especially sewage sludge. Prior to joining Imperial College he worked as a team leader on coal gasification, combustion and hot gas cleanup for 23 years with British Coal at the Coal Research Establishment at Stoke Orchard near Cheltenham, Gloucestershire. Between leaving British Coal and joining Imperial College he spent a year as a visiting researcher studying mercury control on a gasification plant at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada, under a Royal Academy of Engineering Foresight award. Dr Reed holds a degree in Applied Chemistry from Kingston University and a PhD from the University of London.
