Process Development for Size and Shape Manipulation of Elongated Crystals
What is the PhD Project About?. This project will address one of the key challenges in crystallization process development. Crystallization is a separation and purification technique that is widely employed in pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and fine chemical industries. 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
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
Bioproduction of bioplastics with tailored properties
Research Group:
Biochemical and Bioprocess Engineering
This multidisciplinary project aims to develop a novel technology, exploiting the fermentation at different scales and modes (batch/fed-batch/continuous) for the bioproduction of bioplastics with tailored properties. Read more
Direct numerical modelling of boiling phenomena
Applications are invited for a research studentship in the field of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation, leading to the award of a PhD degree. Read more
Creating Angstrom scale capillaries for studying molecular transport
Angstrom-scale pores and capillaries have been studied intensively because of their importance in many natural phenomena and use in numerous applications. Read more
