Environmental Sciences inspirational alumni

Our Environmental Sciences graduates go onto great things and they make a difference that really matters.

Carlton Cummins (Sustainability, Entrepreneurship and Design MSc, 2016), is co-founder of Aceleron who created the process to extract value from used lithium ion batteries which provide low cost battery packs for a growing number of emerging markets.

Carlton’s innovative solution to the huge waste management problem created by supposedly ‘dead’ lithium batteries have seen him win a number of accolades including being named one of Forbes’ 30 Under 30 European science entrepreneurs and winner of the Shell LiveWIRE Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award.
