Role at ANSTO
Supporting Australia’s resources sector manage Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials
Stable production of hydrogen from seawater
Efficient electro-catalysis of hydrogen from seawater represents a low-cost, abundant source of clean energy.
Reconstructing Australia’s fire history from cave stalagmites
Research is being undertaken through an Australian Research Council Discovery Project "Reconstructing Australia’s fire history from cave stalagmites", led by Professor Andy Baker at UNSW Sydney and Dr. Pauline Treble at ANSTO. The project aims to calibrate the fire-speleothem relationship and develop coupled fire and climate records for the last millennium in southwest Australia.
Radiation Monitoring
ANSTO continually monitors environmental gamma radiation from a station located in Engadine NSW. ANSTO uses environmental radiation data to evaluate atmospheric dispersion from its site. This radiation is almost completely natural background radiation.
You are what you eat
Cracking the code for crop nutrition and food quality with X-ray fluorescence microscopy.

Neutron Activation Analysis and Neutron Irradiation
Neutron Activation Analysis (NAA) is a highly sensitive method of quantitative elemental analysis. There is a wide range of potential applications for neutron irradiations.
Seafood authenticity research moves into new stage
Accurate ‘fingerprinting’ tool to verify source of origin is in development with collaborators from academia and industry.
Critical minerals
MABI Multi-wavelength absorption black carbon instrument
The Multi-wavelength absorption black carbon instrument MABI can determine the concentration and source of black carbon pollution.
Looking deeply in nitrogen cycling
New three year study with UNSW for Cotton Research Development Corporation.
ANSTO welcomes $13.9M critical minerals funding
Rare earth elements will be a key area of focus for the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation’s Minerals unit as it welcomes a $13.9 million funding allocation under the Australian Critical Minerals Research and Development Hub
