PhD in Chemistry: Sustainable Catalysis Using Non-Metals
This research program will illustrate new design strategies to synthesise ambiphilic molecules that contain both electrophilic (Lewis acidic) and nucleophilic (Lewis basic) sites that may be employed as catalysts (known as Frustrated Lewis Pairs). Read more
PhD in Chemistry: Electrolysis Technologies for H2 production Catalysed by Plastrons and Foams.
Green hydrogen is hydrogen produced by water electrolysis using renewable electricity. Its production reduces dramatically CO. 2. Read more
PhD in Chemistry: Computational design of new heterogeneous catalysts to support net zero: conversion of CO2 to methanol
Computational design of new heterogeneous catalysts to support net zero. conversion of CO2 to methanol. PhD Supervisor. Dr. Andrew J. Read more
PhD in Chemistry: Electrolyzers Implemented with Particle-Stabilized Foams for Green Hydrogen Production by Electrolysis of Contaminated Waters and Wastewaters: EPSRC competitive funded post
Water electrolysis is an effective method to produce green H2 with zero-carbon emission. However, commercial electrolysers use only freshwater that may strain the drinking water supply. Read more
PhD in Chemistry: Investigation of water-associated deactivation mechanisms for industrial Fischer Tropsch catalysts: Competitive EPSRC funded post
Cheap, clean, and sustainable portable energy is necessary to achieve net zero, and therefore low carbon fuels are a vibrant and rapidly evolving research field. Read more
PhD in Chemistry: Solar SFX: Real-time molecular movies of solar cell photosensitizers by serial femtosecond crystallography: Competitive EPSRC funded post
This studentship will create molecular movies showing how solar photosensitizers respond to light, using serial femtosecond crystallography (SFX). Read more
