CSIRO, Fujitsu and Monash University have signed a Memorandum of Understanding aimed at expanding Australian researchers' and students' access to advanced quantum computing technology, with the collaboration focused on strengthening Australia's quantum capability and supporting the development of practical quantum applications.

An international research team led in part by Monash University says it has developed a commercially sized tandem solar cell that replaces the scarce metal indium with abundant tin oxide, a manufacturing advance that could support lower-cost production of high-efficiency solar panels.

Monash University has launched a new cross-disciplinary research initiative focused on strengthening Australia's critical minerals capability, as global demand for the resources is expected to increase significantly in the coming decades.

Engineers at Monash University have developed an ultra-thin membrane designed to improve the efficiency of fuel cells operating at high temperatures, in a breakthrough the researchers say could support wider use of clean energy technologies in transport and industry.

Monash University researchers have developed a new filtering material designed to improve the efficiency of plastic recycling by helping recover and reuse chemicals used in the process, according to a study published in the Chemical Engineering Journal.

Monash University’s Institute of Railway Technology (Monash IRT) and Rio Tinto have signed a Master Supply Agreement to provide railway research and development services aimed at improving the performance, safety and reliability of Rio Tinto’s rail network in Western Australia.

A common mineral that accounts for the majority of the world’s copper supply could play a key role in improving how the metal is extracted, according to new research from Monash University published in Nature Geoscience.

A review led by researchers from Monash University suggests that improving how robots predict human behaviour could help make manufacturing environments safer, more adaptive and efficient, as the sector transitions toward Industry 5.0.

Monash University will showcase a range of student-led engineering projects at the FORMULA 1 QATAR AIRWAYS AUSTRALIAN GRAND PRIX, using the international motorsport event as a platform to highlight innovation in mobility, aerospace, robotics and autonomous systems.

Researchers at Monash University say they have developed a new method to recover high-purity metals from spent lithium-ion batteries using a mild, environmentally sustainable solvent, offering what they describe as a safer alternative to conventional recycling techniques.
