We have 12 anaerobic digestion PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships
Development and validation of control strategies for flexible and demand-driven anaerobic digestion
Bioenergy and anaerobic digestion can have a major role as a source of dispatchable energy in future energy systems with high penetration of intermittent renewables. Read more
Improved reactor design and operation for the anaerobic digestion of biowastes
Anaerobic digestion is usually carried out in single semi-continuous reactors, especially due to their simpler construction and operation. Read more
Simulation and optimization of the anaerobic digestion process for the production of renewable energy and valuable compounds from biodegradable wastes
These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more
Modelling, design and testing of integrated anaerobic digestion and hydroponics systems for closed-loop urban applications
Anaerobic digestion (AD) will play a major role in the future circular economy, in particular enabling biological closed loops with complete recycling of nutrients and improved recovery of energy. Read more
Optimising anaerobic co-digestion: improving the outputs and stability of anaerobic processes
Anaerobic co-digestion consists of the anaerobic digestion (AD) of a mixture of two or more substrates with complementary characteristics, so that biogas production, digestate characteristics and process stability are enhanced through their joint treatment. 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
Renewable Energy Driven Conversion of Waste to Chemical Fuels Using Metal Oxide Photoelectrochemistry
Background. Vast volumes of plant oil waste are produced globally from industrial and domestic processes. For example, the UK catering industry alone is estimated to generate 50-90 million tons of waste cooking oil per year. Read more
PhD Studentships - Process Industries: Net Zero - Whole system optimisation of bioresources
This PhD project is part of the CDT in Process Industries: Net Zero. The successful PhD student will be co-supervised by academics from the Process Intensification Group at Newcastle University. Read more
BARIToNE: Potential for sustainable soil quality and crop yield enhancement by biochar generated from distillery residual byproducts and digestate (Project code 25B)
Supervisors. Lead supervisor - Dr Jennifer Carfrae, SRUC. Second supervisor - Dr Maciej Kaczmarek, SRUC. Industry supervisor - Alistair Longwell, Suntory Global Spirits. Read more
Farm slurry into green fertiliser, diesel, and hydrogen
The Industry and Innovation Research Institute (I2Ri) draws on talents, expertise and facilities across Sheffield Hallam University. Read more
Integration of algal biofuel and biogas production
There is an increased international interest in the use of algae to sustainably produce liquid biofuels to meet future energy demands, however there are many technical challenges associated with this promising technology. Read more
The impact of soft-fruit phytochemicals on the gut microbiome and bile acid signalling
Applications are invited for this self-funded 36 Month project within the Rowett Institute at the University of Aberdeen. Background. Read more
