Mechanical Engineering (chemical) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 113 Mechanical Engineering (chemical) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Alternative Aviation Fuels Combustion Experiments

As a consequence of concern over increasing greenhouse gas emissions, along with issues of availability and security of supply of conventional fossil fuels, there is a growing pressure to consider the use of alternative fuels in the aviation sector. Read more

PhD in multi-energy systems analysis with Artificial Intelligence models

Background. The UK and the World are rapidly shifting towards multi-energy systems, such as districts and industrial parks with large amounts of renewable electricity, renewable heating & cooling, clean fuels (e.g. Read more

Novel Material (MOFs) Synthesis using Microfluidic Reactor

Project description. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), composed of organic linkers and metal nodes, are a class of crystalline porous materials with great application potential. Read more

Development of Advanced Anode Materials for Proton-based Solid Oxide Fuel Cells

Project description. This aim of this project is to develop a next generation hydrogen production technology, proton-based solid oxide electrolysis cell, that can effectively support the rapid growth of intermittent renewable energy generated from solar and wind sources. Read more

Foam Hadron Collider

Microfluidic devices involving small droplets or bubbles flowing along narrow channels are becoming increasingly important, not least in the context Covid-19 testing. Read more

Nanoengineering in Pharmaceutical Formulation

Project start date. 01 October 2024. Project duration. 3.5 years. Studentship funding. Home tuition fees (currently £6,035/year) and maintenance stipend (currently £20,622/year). Read more

Plasma-based gas conversion into value-added chemicals

  Research Group: Plasma and fusion science and technologies
Plasmas are promising technology for the conversion of gases such as CO2, CH4 or N2 into more valuable ones, e.g. CO (starting material for alcohols and hydrocarbons), H2 (clean fuel applications) and NH3 (fertilisers). Read more

Multi-Fidelity Modelling of Rechargeable Battery Degradation

  Research Group: Intelligent Systems and Robotics
Rechargeable batteries play a key role in electric vehicles and transition to net zero. One of the current challenges in batteries is degradation, which causes capacity retention and resistance increase as the battery cycles. Read more

Three-dimensional hybrid composites for repair and recycling PhD

This PhD research opportunity focuses on the development of self-healing three-dimensional metal-composite hybrid materials. These will use through-thickness reinforcement to embed metallic elements, acting as a means of targeted heat introduction, to activate re-processable matrices like thermoplastics or vitrimers.
