Understanding methane history and reservoir potential in the South China Sea
Research Group:
Isotope Geochemistry & Planetary Science
Sustainable hydrocarbon gas extraction is necessary as a key part of the energy transition away from the most polluting hydrocarbon energy sources. Read more
Effect of hydrogen on the fatigue behaviour of defected metallic materials used in the UK’s gas pipeline network
Hydrogen (H2) has the potential to become one of the world’s most valuable green energy vectors to abandon the use of fossil fuels in the energy, transport and heating sectors, which together contribute to more than 70% of the UK CO2 emissions. Read more

PhD in Engineering - Compact Terahertz Gas Sensors for Non-Invasive Early Disease Detection
The School of Engineering of the University of Glasgow is seeking a highly motivated graduate to undertake an exciting 3.5-year PhD project to work on fabrication and characterisation of compact gas sensor chips for non-invasive early disease detection applications. . Read more
Sustainable development of cutting-edge porous sorbents for gas separation
Developing cost-effective and sustainable porous adsorbents aiming at separating impurities and main constituents from different gas mixtures is a real and necessary challenge for the industry, especially the energy sector. Read more
Drone-based measurements of volcanic gas
This project focusses on the measurement of volcanic gases using airborne drones. Accurate measurement of volcanic gas composition and gas flux provide powerful insights into the natural processes which control precursory, eruptive and post-eruptive volcanic activity. Read more
Engineering Doctorate (EngD): New exhaust gas clean up systems for the combustion of new, low carbon fuels in heavy duty engines
As a company, Eminox’s global strategy is to develop exhaust after-treatment systems (EATS) for on-road, non-road mobile machinery (NRMM), rail, marine and power generation internal combustion engines (ICE) that will eventually adopt Carbon-Free Alternative Fuels such as NH. Read more
Investigation of Greenhouse Gas Alternatives for Electrical Insulation
Manchester is home to one of the largest electrical and electronic engineering departments in the country. Our High Voltage Laboratory makes us a place renowned for applied research, a place ranked in the top three UK universities for research impact. Read more
Green conversion of (mixed) waste into porous carbon materials with application in gas treatment by adsorption
This project will face the global challenge of reducing landfilling by revalorising wastes of different nature and composition (i.e. Read more
Carbon capture from gas turbines
Natural gas is seen as cleaner than other fossil fuels and will continue to have an essential role in the energy mix of the future, particularly in the UK. Read more
Enhance the resilience of the UK gas networks to meet the future challenges
The natural gas networks have played an important role in the energy supply to both domestic and industrial users in the UK – and will need to continue to do so. Read more
Oxygen enhanced gas desulphurisation
Gas desulphurizing is an important process in waste gas treatment process units found in many chemical processing industry, such as in oil refineries and gasification plants. Read more

PhD at SUERC - Tracking the source of Helium in the huge Virginia Gas Project, Witswatersrand Basin, South Africa.
Summary. Natural gases found in the Witswatersrand Basin, South Africa, contain up to 15% helium, making them the richest helium deposit ever discovered. Read more
Revealing the Hidden Light: Understanding the cosmic dust and cold gas in nearby galaxies.
Research Group:
Cardiff Hub for Astrophysics Research and Technology
Cosmic dust is often seen as an annoyance by astronomers, with over half the light ever emitted by stars in the Universe having been absorbed by a dust grain. Read more
Combined Cycle Gas Turbine – CCS; experiment and modelling
This project will combine an experimental and modelling study of a combined cycle gas turbine with CCS. A Turbec T100 gas turbine will be modified to allow the investigation of the effect of exhaust gas recycle and or steam injection on its performance, with measurement of power output and exhaust gas emissions. Read more
Developing methods to quantify the potential for greenhouse gas removal using bioenergy - carbon capture and storage to speed up the establishment and uptake of perennial Bio-energy crops.
Crop yield and soil carbon turnover models are parameterized by using data from carefully controlled and measured field and lab experiments and when used spatially in predictive mode are driven by existing spatial data sets of weather, climate, soil types and land use at various scales. Read more
