Chemical Engineering (organic) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 41 Chemical Engineering (organic) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Non-thermal plasma as a chemical reagent: elucidating mechanism and exploring NTP for pharmaceutically relevant electroreductive reactions

Chemistry depends on electrons, but we cannot yet fully control electrons to deliver precise reactivity. Controlled high-energy electron sources—such as non-thermal plasma (NTP)—could unlock new and selective chemical transformations, but little is known about these states of matter when mixed with reaction media.

Waste to Energy - Torrefaction of Biomass and Organic Residues to Produce Solid Fuel

An increasing world energy demand, the depletion of conventional fossil fuel sources and a growing awareness of their environmental impacts, highlights the importance of promoting the use of alternative fuels from renewable sources. Read more

125th Anniversary Scholarships for Black British Researchers - Recycling of Carbon Fibre Composites with Deep Eutectic Solvents

Globally, 62,000 tonnes of high-value, “waste” carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) are sent to landfill each year [1]. There is, therefore, an urgent need to develop sustainable recycling solutions. 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

Photoreforming of biomass to hydrogen in seawater

This project focuses on production of hydrogen, a promising candidate for the next generation of energy vectors, through photoreforming of biomass in the presence of seawater. Read more

PhD Studentship in Solar Chemical Technologies

A PhD studentship is available at the University of Cambridge, starting in October 2025 under the supervision of Professor Erwin Reisner in the Yusuf Hamied Department of Chemistry. Read more

Advancing hyperpolarised solid-state NMR spectroscopy for materials science

This PhD project is open to a wide range of research directions, depending on the interests and abilities of the candidate. The main topic will concern the application and development of methods for advanced NMR investigations of hyperpolarised solids. Read more

Novel Material (MOFs) Synthesis using Microfluidic Reactor

Project description. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), composed of organic linkers and metal nodes, are a class of crystalline porous materials with great application potential. Read more

Electrolyte design and engineering for next-generation batteries

Project. Advances in the rechargeable batteries for storage of electrical energy have always been the driving force for the improvement of our society, from communications to transportation and electricity delivery. Read more
