Monower Sadique working as a Professor of Construction Materials at Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU), UK. Professor Sadique has been at the forefront of pioneering industrial and academic research for over a decade. His work has involved successful collaboration across the UK and global construction sector; SMEs and HEIs. His contribution extends to projects with national and international academics and has attracted global recognition with significant impact. The impact of his research on sustainable construction materials yields a positive influence on the quality of life of communities beyond the academy internationally and nationally. Professor Sadique’s cutting-edge research on low carbon clay-free unfired brick, low sintered ceramic, and self-activated second-generation geopolymer to address challenges faced by construction industries have the potential to revolutionize the industry and its impact on health and economy. In 2022, Professor Sadique won the prestigious ICE Advances in Cement Research award for novel research and an associated scientific paper on Geopolymer concrete.

Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU)
With a heritage that stretches back to 1823, Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU) is now one of the largest and well-established universities in the UK. The Built Environment and Sustainable Technologies (BEST) Research Institute comprises of 55 academic staff from the School of Civil Engineering and Built Environment (CEBE) within the Faculty of Engineering and Technology. The primary aim of the institute is to tackle sustainability challenges in CEBE through innovative technologies and effective management practices looking towards a sustainable, Net-Zero future. To achieve this, the Institute’s core strategy is on fostering strong external collaboration, establishing partnerships with both industry and the public sector to engage in research addressing critical industrial and societal challenges, aligned with the United Kingdom (UK) and international strategies, including the “Grand Challenges”. The Institute has state-of-the-art materials labs is organised around four fundamental themes: (1) Sustainable Resource Processing and Reuse, (2) Novel and Bio-based Materials, (3) Holistic Built Environment, and (4) Environmental Monitoring and Control.
