Biography
Hajime Kinoshita joined the Immobilisation Science Laboratory (ISL) in 2005 after his postdoctoral experiences at Department of Chemistry, The University of Manchester and at Department of Nuclear Engineering, Osaka University where he also completed his postgraduate studies. He has been working on nuclear materials, especially in the area of nuclear fuels and waste management. Before coming to the UK, he has also conducted researches at Argonne National Laboratory and Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute in the related topics.
Research Interest
His interests are in the environmental-friendly applications of materials, his research programmes at ISL extend from nuclear waste management to CO2 storage. His researches focus on fabrication and characterisation of oxide-based materials to improve their capacity to host aiming compounds and the compatibility of the products to the environment. Based on thermodynamics, both experimental and computational techniques are used for the research.
