Chemical Engineering (plant science) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 13 Chemical Engineering (plant science) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Development of Biodegradable Fiber-Based Bags for Sustainable Plant Nurture

The need for environmentally friendly and sustainable solutions to combat plastic pollution has never been more critical. Plastics, particularly single-use plastic bags, have had a detrimental impact on our ecosystems and contribute to environmental degradation. Read more

Pharmaceutical process development, optimization and scale-up of plant-based cancer drugs

Project - We are pleased to announce an exciting PhD opportunity within our ground-breaking project dedicated to the optimization of extraction and purification processes of plant-derived molecules, with potential applications in cancer treatment as a collaborative effort with the South Australian immunoGENomics Cancer Institute. 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

Waste-to-protein recovery through protein separation and purification

The plant-sourced and animal-sourced proteins are resource-demand and carbon-intensive. This combined with increasing protein demands highlight the complex challenge on providing protein security. Read more

Detecting and Quantifying Hydrogen Isotopes in Nuclear Fusion Breeding Materials using Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy

Future fusion power reactors such as the UK’s STEP reactor, due to begin construction in the next 10 years, will require the tritium fuel to be generated (bred), extracted, separated, and regenerated into new fueling (either pellets or gas) prior to (re-)introduction into the fusion core. Read more

Hydrogen trapping and permeation in metallic and ceramic coatings for fusion powerplant applications

  Research Group: Coatings and Ceramics
Future fusion powerplants must maintain tritium inventory to ensure safe and sustainable plant operations. Structural materials in the breeder blanket and tritium extraction systems will be exposed to tritium and lithium. Read more

3D printing of nanocomposite drug delivery platforms

Hydrogel-based three-dimensional (3D) printing has garnered significant interest in various biomedical fields like tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, and personalized medicine. Read more

Fouling control and cleaning of membrane for water treatment

Supervisory Team.   Yongqiang Liu. Project description. Globally, water scarcity is a pressing issue, affecting between two and three billion people worldwide, as reported by the recent UN World Water Development report. Read more

EPSRC CDT in Bioprocess Engineering Leadership: Complex Biological Products Manufacture

Biological products and their manufacture are progressing to unparalleled levels of complexity. Examples include engineered biocatalysts, antibody-drug conjugates, multivalent vaccines and cellular therapies. Read more
