We have 10 biochar PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for Self-funded Students
Project at Queen's University Belfast: Biochar Interventions to Improve Soil Health Under Oil Palm : Ensuring Agronomic and Environmental Sustainability of the Fastest Expanding Equatorial Crop
Oil-palm is the most productive oil crop in the world, capable of serving both human food and energy needs. Alarmingly though, land conversion to oil-palm is associated with biodiversity loss, regionally significant fire, toxic-haze and GHG emissions. Read more
Biochar-amended soil for resilient agriculture, soil health and climate change mitigation- An Integrated Assessment
Background. Biomass releases greenhouse gas emissions through natural decay or when burnt. Read more
Biochar Carbon Sequestration towards Net Zero Concrete
Concrete is the most widely used construction material in the World with an annual production exceeding 14 billion cubic meters. The production of cement, which is the binder material in concrete, is responsible for ~8% of global CO2 emissions. Read more
PhD Studentship - Systematic investigation of pyrolysis process and products for sustainable biochar production
This PhD project is part of the CDT in Process Industries: Net Zero. The successful PhD student will be co-supervised by academics from the Process Intensification Group at Newcastle University. Read more

Farm slurry into green fertiliser, diesel, and hydrogen
The Industry and Innovation Research Institute (I2Ri) draws on talents, expertise and facilities across Sheffield Hallam University. Read more
Computational modelling of biobased materials from biomass degradation for applications in precision agriculture, resilient infrastructure, or energy storage.
Valorising biomass wastes as new carbon mines to develop biobased materials that mimic nature’s efficiency and waste-free processes is one of the most promising avenues for achieving sustainable technical solutions in precision agriculture, resilient infrastructure, and energy storage. Read more
Leverhulme Doctoral Programme for Regenerative Innovation (Regnr8-i): Beyond Net-Zero Housing – Community-Driven Decision Tools for Energy Retrofit Based on Carbon-Sequestering Materials
Aims. Energy retrofits of existing buildings play a critical role in reducing energy demand and cutting carbon emissions. Read more
Sustainable decentralised method for removing fluoride pollution from drinking water (Ref: AACME-24-011)
As a result of climate change, population expansion and industrialisation, more areas of the world are becoming “water-stressed”. Read more
Hydrothermal Processing of Biomass and Organic Waste to Produce Fuel and Value-added Products
In the past decades, an excessive use of fossil fuels due to the steady increase in World’s energy demand had a significant impact on the environment. Read more
