Rate My Professor Dianne Wiley

Professor Wiley is recognised worldwide as a leader in developing membrane systems for water and wastewater treatment and in evaluating technologies for carbon capture and storage throughout the process chain. Her research focuses on carbon capture and storage, environmental assessment, membrane science and technology, separation processes, and technoeconomic analysis, with primary fields including water treatment processes, carbon capture engineering excluding sequestration, and environment and resource economics. Notable publications include "Reducing the cost of CO2 capture from flue gases using pressure swing adsorption" by Ho, Allinson, and Wiley (2008, Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research, 767 citations); "Emerging CO2 capture systems" (2015, International Journal of Greenhouse Gas Control, 577 citations); "Spacer characterization and pressure drop modelling in spacer-filled channels for ultrafiltration" by Da Costa, Fane, and Wiley (1994, Journal of Membrane Science, 541 citations); "Spiral wound modules and spacers: Review and analysis" by Schwinge, Neal, Wiley, Fletcher, and Fane (2004, 492 citations); and "Review of 3D CFD modeling of flow and mass transfer in narrow spacer-filled channels in membrane modules" by Fimbres-Weihs and Wiley (2010, 385 citations). These contributions highlight her profound impact in chemical engineering, particularly in membrane technology and carbon mitigation. At Newcastle, she works with colleagues and industry partners to lead engineering research addressing climate change resilience, water security, sustainable energy, and infrastructure.
