[FSE Bicentenary PhD] Scalable 2D Materials-based Membranes for Efficient Hydrogen Generation via Water Electrolysis
This project aims to develop innovative 2D material-based laminate membranes to enhance the performance and safety of Proton Exchange Membrane Water Electrolyzers (PEMWEs). Read more
(UoM - IIT KGP) 2D Confinement of atomically precise metal nanoclusters and their uses in water filtration
Atomically thin 2D nanomaterials, known for their exceptional mechanical and optoelectronic properties, are typically produced via exfoliation, taking advantage of strong intralayer bonds over weaker interlayer interactions. Read more
Capillary pressure, relative permeability and wettability at critically-low saturated porous media (CRISP)
Darcy-scale theories of two-phase flow in porous media rely on two major constitutive equations; capillary-pressure- saturation and relative permeability-saturation equations. Read more
[FSE Bicentenary PhD] Adaptive Laboratory Evolution Approaches for Scalable PHA Production in Halophiles
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are biodegradable polymers with potential to replace conventional plastics in a range of applications, addressing critical global challenges of plastic pollution and sustainability. Read more
[FSE Bicentenary PhD] Correlating adsorption dynamics with heterogeneous catalyst activity using variable temperature in situ high-resolution solid-state NMR
More efficient catalytic processes, requiring less energy, and converting natural “waste” such as carbon dioxide and methanol as well as synthetic plastic waste to value-added products is crucial to help reach net zero and reduce the current anthropogenic impact on our environment and climate. Read more
Environmentally strategic decommissioning of Advanced Gas-cooled Reactors led by life cycle assessment
This project will apply environmental life cycle assessment (LCA) and economic life cycle costing (LCC) to some of the key problems presented by decommissioning activities. Read more
EPSRC CDT in Developing National Capability for Materials 4.0, with the Henry Royce Institute
Right now, our society faces huge, urgent challenges. From the imperative to achieve net-zero, to the need to build a resilient, circular economy in an uncertain world, to the drive for increased productivity as our fellow nations embrace the digital revolution. Read more
Multiscale investigation of corrosion deposition in high temperature high pressure water for nuclear power plants
Saturn_Nuclear_CDT. We are pleased to present an exciting PhD opportunity in collaboration with Rolls-Royce, providing a unique chance for candidates to participate in a multiscale investigation of corrosion deposition in high-temperature, high-pressure water for nuclear power plants. Read more
Robust Nuclear Fuels for Future Applications
Saturn_Nuclear_CDT. Nuclear energy will play a key role in providing energy for important applications in the future. Read more
Development of ceramic thermal and environmental barrier coatings for high temperature applications
Research Group:
Coatings and Ceramics
Ceramic coatings are vital in high-temperature applications, especially in aero-engines and the power generation industry. These coatings increase the engine’s operating temperature to improve efficiency and reduce the engine’s environmental impact. Read more
The next generation of irradiation and corrosion resistant steels for fusion reactor
The United Kingdom is committed to achieving net zero (i.e. net zero carbon emissions) by 2050. This has triggered renewed interest in clean, low emission nuclear power. 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
