OccupationProfessor of Engineering

Geoffrey Brooks (born November 9, 1962) is a Professor of Engineering at Swinburne University of Technology, Known for fundamentals of steelmaking and non-ferrous metallurgy. His research in these fields has earned him awards from organizations such as the Association for Iron and Steel Technology (AIST),[1] the Minerals, Metals and Materials Society (TMS),[2] and the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (IOM3).[3][4]

Background

Brooks was born in Melbourne in 1962. He graduated with a Bachelor of Chemical Engineering from RMIT[5] in 1984, completed a Bachelor of Arts (HPS, Media) Swinburne University of Technology in 1989[6] and his PhD in Chemical [7][8][6][9] Engineering from the University of Melbourne[10] in 1994. Brooks was appointed as a Lecturer in Materials Engineering at the University of Wollongong in 1993, where he worked closely with prominent metallurgist Professor Howard Worner on the use of biomass as a reductant in Ironmaking and the fundamentals of Steelmaking with staff at the Port Kembla Steelworks.

Research

Brooks' key work includes modeling steelmaking, leading teams on jet-liquid interaction,[11] heat transfer,[12] and reaction kinetics[13] in steelmaking. Collaborating with McMaster and Swinburne University, he developed the Bloated Droplet Theory in Oxygen Steelmaking, correlating steelmaking kinetics with iron droplets' "bloating" in FeO rich slag.[14] This bloating, debated in literature, significantly impacts steelmaking kinetics and heat movement. His recent research focuses on scrap melting limits in Oxygen Steelmaking and public education on steel decarbonisation.

Awards and Honors

  • John F. Elliott Lectureship Award [1]
  • Minerals, Metals and Materials Society (TMS) Award[15]
  • Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (IOM3) Award[16]
  • EPD Science Award[17]
  • Bessemer Gold Medal [18]
