In Victoria, a member company of ACI, Cleantech Energy Australia Pty Ltd has partnered with Swinburne University to explore this possibility. They have formed a joint venture company, GrapheneX, to develop processes for low-cost production of graphene oxide and for fabrication of advanced materials and processes based on graphene. This collaboration draws upon the skills of Dr Nishar Hameed, who has expertise in graphene nanocomposites and functional materials, andProfessor Baohua Jia, who has expertise in fabrication of graphene oxide supercapacitors, graphene metamaterials, 3D graphene networks and advanced solar cells.Given the potential significance of graphene oxide in the advanced consumer products and electronics of the 21st century, ACI would like to support a program of research to develop the potential of Victorian lignite as a low cost carbon source for production of graphene oxide and high value graphene-based products.
