Trevor co-founded Clarity Advanced Control in 2018 to translate science outcomes into industry-implementable products – in particular, to develop and commercialise the next generation of mineral processing instrumentation. He completed an MSc in Chemical Engineering at The University of Cape Town, South Africa. At the CSIR in Pretoria he developed a grounding in fluidisation for energy and mineral processing applications, with key deliverables including scoping, trial work, plant design and commissioning. He joined CSIRO, Clayton, in 2008 where he further developed skills in process engineering, flowsheet development, computational- and physical- modelling in the energy and mineral processing sectors. In this role, he gained a wealth of knowledge in process evaluation, costing, integration and scale-up.

Dr. Binghao Li is a Research Fellow with School of Minerals and Energy Resources Engineering, the University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia. He obtained B.E. in Electrical & Mechanical Eng. from Northern Jiaotong University, P.R. China in 1994 and M.E. in Civil Eng., Tsinghua University, P.R. China in 2001. He received his Ph.D. from the University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia in 2006. His research area is indoor positioning, pedestrian navigation, new positioning technologies and mine internet of things.

Andreas joined CSIRO is 2006 with an extensive background in process development and implementation, specialising in novel technology scale-up for the pulp and paper, waste water and mineral processing industries. While at CSIRO, he has headed up large metal production and integrated tailings management projects. He is currently managing the development, implementation and commercialisation of emergent advanced instrumentation and control strategies for the mineral processing industry for CSIRO Mineral Processing Program. In November 2018 he co-founded Clarity Advanced Control Pty Ltd as an independent entity to facilitate strategic technology transfer from research organisations to commercial implementation in industry.
