About the Project

The University of Bath is inviting applications for the following PhD project commencing in January 2022.

Funding is available to candidates who qualify for ‘Home’ fee status. Following the UK’s departure from the European Union, the rules governing fee status have changed and, therefore, candidates from the EU/EEA are advised to check their eligibility before applying. Please see the Funding Eligibility section below for more information.

 

Project team: Professor Tim Mays

Informal queries should be directed to - Prof Tim Mays - [Email Address Removed]

Project:

The motivation of this new work is to accelerate the use of green hydrogen in sustainable energy applications

and hence to support the UK’s Net Zero 2050 policy and the global drive to mitigate disastrous, anthropogenic global heating. The project will cover theoretical, modelling, simulation and experimental aspects of H2 uptake and delivery in activated carbons, metal-organic frameworks and other advanced nanoporous materials and composites, and will target new, high capacity, structured materials operating at near ambient conditions. It will be led by Prof Tim Mays in the Department of Chemical Engineering (https://tinyurl.com/2acas6fc). Depending on the project and access to competition funding (including University of Bath scholarships), work may involve collaboration at Bath, e. g., with Chemists and Materials Engineers, and with external industrial, business and policy partners. International partners may also be involved.

Candidate Requirements:

Applicants should hold, or expect to receive, an undergraduate Masters first class degree or MSc distinction (or equivalent degree from a non-UK top-tier University) 

Application:

Formal applications should be made via the University of Bath’s online application form for a PhD in Chemical Engineering. Please ensure that you state the full project title and lead supervisor name on the application form.
