Renewable energy generation from waste: adoption pathways, drivers, and obstacles for the uptake of biogas production technology in communities
Anaerobic Digestion (AD) has a great potential to help society transition to renewable energy, especially when deployed at small- and medium-scale where the initial prohibitive investment can be lessened. Read more
Techno-economic assessment of renewable hydrogen production via chemical-looping reforming of biogas
Clean and carbon-free hydrogen production is expected to play a vital role in future global energy transitions. Biogas is an interesting renewable biomass resource for hydrogen production due to its sustainable nature. . Read more
Plasma-catalysis for biogas upgrading
Process streams containing methane present huge potential as a feedstock for chemicals synthesis. 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
Low cost, energy efficient biomethane production from landfill gas or biogas
Biomethane can be produced from biogas or landfill gas in a fairly simple water scrubbing system. This process has been used on large scale biogas plants but the optimal operation has not been fully investigated. Read more
Design and development of water desalination plants for rural communities, driven by a hybrid solar-biogas energy system
Freshwater supplies are becoming increasingly stressed as demand increases. Desalination technologies are able to produce drinking water from abundant resources such as seawater. Read more
Scaling up next generation immortal catalysts for transforming the chemical industry.
Natural gas it is an abundant and versatile energy source, helping meet growing demand for energy globally. Up to 50% of natural gas is being used as feedstock for chemical synthesis of many important base chemicals such as ammonia and methanol. Read more
Intermediate dark fermentation as a platform technology for chemical recycling and biorefineries in the water sector PhD
This exciting fully funded PhD, with an enhanced stipend of £20,000 per annum, will investigate resource recovery opportunities from sewage sludge with dark fermentation as core enabling technology. Read more
Development of a novel biocomposite-integrated thin film reactor for the intensification of biosolar energy-driven gas clean-up processing
This proposed project seeks to establish an entirely new, scalable, solar energy driven microbial gas absorber technology by a novel combination of advanced photoreactive biocomposite materials, experimental thin film absorber design and modelling approaches. Read more
AD design and operating strategies for energy demand matching in the face of non-uniform feedstock availability and composition
In the urban environment at the household to institutional-scale the availability and composition of waste biomass feedstocks, suitable for biogas production, is likely to vary on a variety of timescales. Read more
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
