Independent research & scientific knowledge
Sunward is an independent multidisciplinary research and scientific knowledge platform. Our publications explore scientific, technological, industrial and environmental developments in context.
A wider view of science
We bring scientific and technical questions into context: the systems they belong to, the industries they shape, and the wider world they affect.
In focus
An independent research report on semiconductor water consumption, ultrapure water (UPW) treatment infrastructure, and industrial water risks. It examines treatment costs, electricity and cooling requirements, reclaimed water use, and regional freshwater constraints across semiconductor manufacturing corridors in North America, Europe, Taiwan, South Korea and India.
AvailableOur scope
Environmental change, water systems and the resources that support society and industry.
The technologies, materials and processes shaping industrial development.
Energy systems and emerging technologies, considered in their scientific and practical context.
Developments across scientific disciplines and the connections between them.
Alongside our publications
Sunward’s literature-assistance application supports guided paper reading, review, writing guidance and contextual Q&A.
A future optional paid offering. Public access and pricing are not yet announced.
