Chemical Engineering (computational engineering) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 69 Chemical Engineering (computational engineering) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Study of turbulence in fusion technology using high fidelity simulations

A fully-funded PhD Studentship with an enhanced stipend of £2,500 for 3.5 years is available in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Sheffield to study turbulence in fusion technology using advanced computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Read more

Molecular Simulations and Data-driven Modelling for Polymer Nanocomposite Membranes

The urgent need to mitigate climate change has led to increased focus on sustainable energy solutions. This includes the development of mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) for gas separation in net-zero applications. Read more

Metal-based nanocomposites hyper-activity in heterogeneous non-catalytic and catalytic reactions

This project aims to demonstrate that certain efficiency limits and conventional rules of stoichiometry can be broken and engineered to deliver cost-effective solutions for current challenges in water reclamation and environmental remediation. Read more

Thermally driven flows in solidification processes

PROJECT SUMMARY (a short summary - max 40 words). With this project, we propose a numerical investigation into a variety of dynamics and effects produced by the interaction of an advancing solidification front with thermally-driven convection in the melt. Read more

CFD simulation of a perforated rotating bucket in the prilling process

  Research Group: Advanced Materials Engineering
Prilling is a finishing process in chemical and petrochemical industries for producing reasonably uniform spherical particles from molten solutions of chemicals such as urea or ammonium nitrate. 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

Development of Advanced Anode Materials for Proton-based Solid Oxide Fuel Cells

Project description. This aim of this project is to develop a next generation hydrogen production technology, proton-based solid oxide electrolysis cell, that can effectively support the rapid growth of intermittent renewable energy generated from solar and wind sources. Read more

Understanding Fischer-Tropsch catalysts by in-situ spectroscopy

This PhD project is an exciting opportunity to apply and develop the cutting-edge characterisation techniques available at the University of Manchester, working with bp as industrial partners to help solve one of the biggest challenges in the transition to Net Zero. Read more

Accelerated Discovery of Next Generation Polymers Using Artificially Intelligent Reactor Platforms

  Research Group: School of Chemical and Process Engineering
The application of digital technologies is transforming the discovery and manufacturing process within materials science. This therefore represents perhaps the only opportunity to address the urgent need for new sustainable, high performing materials to facilitate more efficient processes (e.g. Read more

Predictive design of drug co-crystals through correlative studies of inter-molecular interactions

  Research Group: School of Chemical and Process Engineering
This interdisciplinary project presents an exciting opportunity for an ambitious scientist or engineer to work across the boundaries of chemistry, physics and engineering, with opportunities to develop a broad portfolio of skills. Read more
