Use of Fungi as a Means of Producing Concrete-Like Construction Materials

Concrete is one of the World’s most ubiquitous materials. It has achieved this through its versatility, durability and low cost. However, the manufacture of a key ingredient - Portland cement – contributes 4% of anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Read more

Locking CO2 into cement: new perspectives from advanced spectroscopic techniques

EPSRC DTP studentship in Engineering. 3.5 years starting 1st October 2024, 1st January 2025 or 1st April 2025. Project Summary. Our aim is to improve carbon capture and utilisation (CCU) in the cement and concrete industry by introducing reactive carbonates to replace clinkers. Read more

Development of High-Data-Rate Quantum Gravity Sensors (with Toyota Motor Europe)

Project Description. The University of Birmingham, in partnership with Toyota Motor Europe, is offering a PhD position for developing a high-data-rate quantum gravimeter for gravity map-matching navigation and other applications. Read more

Imaging atomic-level electrochemistry in real-time using 2D material devices

Imaging atomic-level electrochemistry in real-time using 2D material devices. Funded project. You will construct and use a new 2D material heterostructure device to allow the atomic to nanoscale imaging of electrochemical reactions inside a transmission electron microscope (TEM). Read more

Low carbon hybrid timber-steel structures in fire

The built environment is one of the largest producers of carbon emissions, responsible for around 38% of global emissions. Hybrid timber-steel structures utilise a traditional steel frame but use Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) for floor slabs which have the potential to reduce embodied carbon in the built environment.
