Space-based constraints on UK ammonia emissions and air quality impacts
We are offering an exciting PhD opportunity, in the School of Earth and Environment, to undertake novel research targeting one of the major air quality challenges facing the UK – the ammonia problem! Ammonia (NH3) is emitted primarily from diffuse agricultural sources and difficult to quantify for legislative purposes. Read more
Ammonia futures – the changing face of atmospheric nitrogen emissions
Introduction. Air pollution is the greatest environmental threat to human health, and impacts biodiversity, and ecosystem services. Read more
Federated Digital Twin for Decarbonising Transport Systems in the UK PhD
The UK's goal of achieving net-zero emissions in transport by 2050 poses a significant challenge related to interoperability, human-centred design, data management, and new business models. Read more
Innovative Approaches to Evaluating Airborne Metal Particle Exposure and Health Consequences in the UK Using Advanced Mass Spectrometry Techniques
Key words. particles, inhalation, human health, ICP-MS, LC-HRMS, metals, biomarkers. About the project. Poor air quality and the inhalation of pollutants, including toxic metals, pose significant health risks in the UK. Read more
Strathclyde Centre for Doctoral Training: Energy-efficient Indoor Climate Control for Optimised Health
This SCDT will provide an immersive opportunity for PhD students with a world-class interdisciplinary research and training programme to bridge the net-zero design and construction skills gap whilst providing specialist skills in human-centric smart building design and digitisation for optimised health and resilience. Read more
PhD in land-based CO2 removal strategies for climate change mitigation
In a world facing the urgent challenge of climate change, it's clear that we need to take action. This PhD project aims to investigate land-based strategies for removing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere. Read more
Source-specific quantification of ammonia emissions
Background. Ammonia (NH3) has an ever-growing influence on air pollution in the UK and worldwide with numerous considerable impacts such as the formation of secondary particles and nitrogen deposition. Read more
Biocoal research for use in heritage steam railways
The UK has over 200 heritage railway lines in operation. Traditionally these have run on coal, preferably Welsh steam coal, a form of bituminous coal known for its good calorific values, low sulphur content and semi smokeless properties. Read more
Sustainable Recycled Textiles for Engineering Applications
Worldwide demand for the apparel industry keeps growing while triggering an environmental impact on human health. The textile industry accounts for around 10% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Read more
Aerodynamic flow control for UAVs
The project. The global commercial unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)/drone market is experiencing significant growth and is projected to reach USD $57 billion by 2030. Read more
Individual decisions for transport network efficiency and sustainability
The University of Sheffield invites applications from outstanding candidates for this PhD scholarship opportunity. The project is looking at understanding the interplay of selfish routing, social norms and the availability of transport modes for the development of sustainable mobility at urban and regional scale.
