About
Dr. Sue M. Grimes is a leading researcher in sustainable resource management and waste processing engineering, with a particular focus on advancing the efficiency of Material Recovery Facilities (MRFs). Her work addresses the critical global challenge of securing raw material supplies through enhanced recycling technologies. Her most notable contribution is the development of a modular model and simulation framework for process optimisation in advanced MRFs, a breakthrough that enables facilities to deliver higher-purity material fractions as feedstock for manufacturing. This work is foundational for creating a circular economy, where waste is transformed into valuable resources. Although her key paper is recent (2024), it has already garnered attention for its practical, systems-level approach to improving sorting and recovery processes. Dr. Grimes’ research bridges the gap between theoretical process design and real-world industrial application, making her a vital voice in the push for more resilient and sustainable material supply chains. Her work is essential reading for students and researchers interested in waste valorisation, process engineering, and the future of recycling infrastructure.
