Current research interests include the small scale biomass gasification to electricity technology and the opportunities presented by abundant but small biomass collections in agriculture and civil structures; and the utilisation of small subtropical hardwood logs to produce moulded and extruded wood composites in any form. Key developments have been the enhancement of mechanical properties at low product density.
