Site under development

Please bookmark this page - Professor Bush's new site is under development and will be arriving soon.

Professor Bush is an internationally recognised pioneer of scientific and systems principles applied to the design and operation of full-scale chemical and polymer processes.

He is the author of some 180 published scientific papers, 150 commercial technical reports, 20 granted patents, over 100 articles and letters in the national press and 5 substantial pamphlets on economic, political and educational issues. Over time he has been a contributor to most of the major British TV and radio current affairs programmes and has lectured all over the world.

Mechanics, and a Ph.D from Trinity College Cambridge and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the USA, Stephen Bush joined Imperial Chemical Industries, where he became Process Technology Group manager in the ICI Corporate Laboratory at Bozedown House in Oxfordshire. Following this he took up the post of Systems Technology manager for ICI (Europa) Ltd at their headquarters in Belgium, where he was responsible for process development projects at manufacturing sites in Holland, Germany, France and Northern Ireland particularly on polyester and nylon fibres and polythene for pipes and cables.

In parallel with work on the chemical kinetics of free radical reactions at Bozedown, work on confined jets led to the award of the 1969 Senior Moulton Medal of the Institution of Chemical Engineers. This found application not only to industrial scale chemical reactors, but subsequently to the even larger scale of reservoirs in the UK and harbours in Europe.
