Natural Polymer Textiles & Fibres for Sustainable Fashion Sector PhD

This project aims to manufacture sustainable textiles from renewable/natural polymers such as cellulose, chitin, alginate, chitosan which derived from most abundant natural resources like agricultural biomass and sea food waste (crab shell, shrimp shells etc.). Read more

Broadening the spectrum of antibacterial drugs to tackle multi-drug resistant Gram-negative pathogens

  Research Group: Astbury Centre for Structural Molecular Biology
Antibiotics make possible the treatment and cure of life-threatening bacterial infections and have added over a decade to average human lifespan. Read more

Circular production of phosphorous fertiliser – anaerobic digestate matrix effects on recovery efficacy

Introduction to research area. The application of animal slurries and anaerobic digestates to land to provide crop nutrients is facing ever increasing regulatory constraints influencing how they are stored and spread to land. Read more

Investigation into the Impact of Material Properties on the Gas Transport Behaviour of Polyolefin Materials

The sustainable use of polymeric materials is underpinned by ensuring long service life in all industries and applications. Understanding durability requires research into the effects of both manufacturing methods and environmental storage conditions on the material properties and performance over time. Read more

PhD project: Developing non-critical raw materials-based electrocatalysts for green hydrogen generation from wastewater

  Research Group: CDT in Green Industrial Futures
The project focuses on the development of cost-effective electrocatalysts derived from non-critical raw materials, aiming to replace expensive platinum group metals in the electrolysis process. Read more

PhD project: Digital twin for decarbonising industry using hydrogen and low-carbon energy vectors

  Research Group: CDT in Green Industrial Futures
The candidate will work closely with industry to develop digital twin solutions for incorporating renewable energy options in industrial clusters, such as hydrogen, batteries, solar, wind and heat-pumps, for deep decarbonisation. Read more

PhD project: Sustainable production of chemicals and aviation fuels

  Research Group: CDT in Green Industrial Futures
Large scale deployments of carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) and integration with green hydrogen are a promising pathway to produce value-added chemicals and sustainable aviation fuels. Read more

PhD project: Hydrogen and carbon dioxide storage and transport for net-zero industrial clusters

  Research Group: CDT in Green Industrial Futures
This project focuses on establishing reliable, cost-effective, large hydrogen or carbon dioxide storage and distribution hubs. In collaboration with industrial partners, we aim to identify and reduce the hurdles for geological storage of hydrogen and carbon dioxide. Read more

Sustainable processes – reducing single use plastics in healthcare

The burden of medical plastic waste has become an increasingly pressing concern in recent years. The healthcare industry relies heavily on single-use plastic items due to their convenience and hygiene factors, but this has led to a significant environmental problem. Read more

Harnessing waste-heat from challenging environments with flexible electronics, sponsored by BAE Systems

Supervisory Team. Dr Katrina Morgan, Dr Ioannis Zeimpekis, Prof Nick Harris, Prof Steve Beeby. Project description. This PhD is a sought after industrial Cooperative Award in Science and Techology (iCASE), with sponsorship from BAE Systems Ltd. Read more

Self funded PhD in Biology: Novel approaches for valorisation of seaweed biomass

Lead Supervisor. Dr T Tonon (Department of Biology). Co-Supervisor. Dr Leonardo Gomez (Department of Biology). Context. Seaweeds are crucial to maintain biodiversity in coastal environments and to support livelihood of some coastal communities. Read more

A study of Sensing and Wireless Communications

This project is to investigate novel techniques for sensing and achieving efficient wireless communication. To fulfil the needs of future communication networks, the study will explore both the optical and radio frequencies for simultaneous sensing and wireless communications. Read more

Accelerated Inorganic Materials Discovery Driven by Magnetic Resonance

This studentship will explore experimental and computational Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy approaches to probe the fast oxide ion transport (e.g., self-diffusion coefficients, diffusion pathways, dimensionality of motion) of oxide in inorganic materials aimed at establishing design rules for the discovery of next generation fast conductors. Read more

Next-Generation Low-Carbon Cement Wasteforms for Safe Disposal of Radioactive Waste

In the UK, over 150,000m3 of radioactive waste (enough to fill 60 Olympic size swimming pools) has been produced to date. Most of this radioactive waste needs conditioning by encapsulating it in cement to prevent release to the biosphere. Read more

Tailoring Unspecific Peroxygenases (UPOs) for Applications in Synthetic Organic Chemistry

Background. The oxygenation of organic compounds presents an ongoing challenge to synthetic chemistry as conventional reagents present difficulties with toxicity, harsh conditions and poor selectivity. Read more
