Next-Generation Low-Carbon Cement Wasteforms for Safe Disposal of Radioactive Waste
In the UK, over 150,000m3 of radioactive waste (enough to fill 60 Olympic size swimming pools) has been produced to date. Most of this radioactive waste needs conditioning by encapsulating it in cement to prevent release to the biosphere. Read more
Modelling biochar-colloids fate and transport in the subsurface
Groundwater and soil pollution is a cause of concern for drinking-water sources, as toxic chemicals continue to contaminate subsurface reservoirs via wastewater, agricultural runoff, storm water, air pollution, and polluted soils. Read more
Bioelectronic interfaces that exploit the unique optoelectronic properties of printed 2D multilayer devices - (ENG 1569)
3-year PhD studentship, Faculty of Engineering, University of Nottingham. Project title. Bioelectronic interfaces that exploit the unique optoelectronic properties of printed 2D multilayer devices. Read more
Hydro-geochemical evolution of clay-based barriers during infiltration of saline groundwater
Deep geological disposal concepts are preferred solutions for the long-term management of high- level radioactive waste (or higher activity waste) in many countries. Read more
Linking phytoremediation to energy crops for sustainable bioenergy and land restoration
This PhD project will investigate the potential of using energy crop species grown on contaminated land to combine sustainable bioenergy production with land restoration and pollution mitigation. It is part of the H2020 CERESiS project (. Read more
GREENCDT Actinide Colloid behaviour in alkaline conditions: Implications for Radioactive Effluent Treatment Processes.
Supervisors. Prof. Sam Shaw. Prof. Kath Morris. Dr Tom Neill. Globally, engineered ‘ponds and silos’ are used for storage of spent nuclear fuels. Read more
Development of a mobile urban cement plant
One issue for reusing construction/demolition waste (CDW) in cement clinker manufacture is establishing the supply chains and the associated transportation costs from urban areas to cement plants. Read more
Low-carbon cements! Can they work under pressure?
The challenges facing clean economic growth in the UK include industrial decarbonisation and improving resource efficiency. Read more
Lung-deposited surface area deposition of airborne nanoparticles in different environments
Airborne nanoparticles (<100nm) are the smallest fraction of particulate matter, which can penetrate deep into the lungs, and have more severe health impacts than their larger counterparts. Read more
Modelling and Analysis of Opposed Piston Composite Cycle Aero Engine Concepts PhD
Building a sustainable and climate neutral future for aviation is an inevitable requirement for a society with increasing mobility needs. Read more
