Creating algorithms for optimal process design in dynamic large-scale systems with surrogates
As nations start acting on their commitments towards decarbonised economies, there is an increasing need for new energy-efficient, carbon neutral processes and products. Read more
Decision support tool for waste valorisation based on sustainability assessments
To mitigate climate change impacts, highly efficient multi-faceted multi-product biorefinery systems must be developed to replace and dominate over fossil-based systems. Read more
Process Development for Size and Shape Manipulation of Elongated Crystals
What is the PhD Project About?. This project will address one of the key challenges in crystallization process development. Crystallization is a separation and purification technique that is widely employed in pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and fine chemical industries. Read more
Optimal multi-period, flexible biorefinery process synthesis using dynamic optimisation and surrogate modelling techniques for multi-product, multi-feedstock bioproducts in the UK
Conversion of biomass to fuels and value-added chemicals is key to support net-zero aspirations globally and within the UK. Read more

Understanding the impact of the engineering environment on transient transfection and process scale-up
Transient gene expression (TGE) is traditionally used for rapid production of recombinant proteins to support preclinical studies during drug development. Read more
Recycling of acrylic plastics: Understanding how to achieve virgin-quality monomer product from chemical recycling technologies.
Project to start in October 2022. Appointment by Spring 2022. We are seeking applicants with a process engineering background to start in Autumn 2022 on a project with Mitsubishi Chemical UK Ltd. Read more
Molten oxide electrolysis processing for technology-critical, strategic metals
Overview. A new process for strategic metal production with near-zero greenhouse gas emissions would radically alter the environmental footprint of rare earth elements and refractory metals. Read more

Engineering Downstream Processes to Enhance Processability of Crystallized Products
What is the PhD Project About?. This project, performed in collaboration with AstraZeneca, will address one of the key challenges in processing pharmaceutical products. Read more
The long-term impacts and optimal processing routes of global biomass supply chains in consideration of future carbon trading
Conversion of biomass to fuels and value-added chemicals is key to support net-zero aspirations globally and within the UK. Read more
Valorisation of wet biomass waste for sustainable production of fuels and chemicals
Global solid waste production has seen a dramatic increase over recent years. It is recognised that the development of alternative, cleaner sources of fuels and chemicals from wet biomass waste can secure energy sources and address environmental concerns. Read more
AI/Machine Learning for chemical process monitoring and design in the manufacture of green chemicals
At Aberdeen, we have several lines of research around the manufacture of green chemicals. For example, we are building plasma catalysis reactors to reform biomethane and/or carbon dioxide into more valuable chemicals as part of a Leverhulme trust sponsored doctoral training centre. Read more
