GREENCDT The impact of polyacrylamide radiolytic and microbial degradation products on the interim and long term storage of radwaste
Managing the radioactive waste inventory in the UK, is a £multibillion grand challenge. Polyacrylamide has been identified as a potential settling aid which can improve sludge settling operations in nuclear waste storage ponds on the Sellafield site, by flocculating a range of legacy fuel materials.

Life on the edge
The search for extra-terrestrial life on Mars and other planets has benefitted from the exploration of extreme environments on Earth. Read more
Numerical modelling and design of geothermal heat recovery from subsurface systems
Research Group:
Multiscale Modelling
Sedimentary basins are ubiquitous, naturally porous and permeable, and the geothermal heat in these basins can be extracted with geologic water or CO. Read more
Investigating compositional pathways from source to eruption in the Lesser Antilles volcanic arc using crystal scale isotopes
PROJECT BACKGROUND. Magma compositions at subduction zones control eruptive behaviour and provide critical insight into global geochemical cycles. Read more
PhD Studentship in Renewable Energy: Enhancing the circular economy of subsurface green energy projects through improved treatment and valorisation of waste
Overview. The EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Renewable Energy Northeast Universities (ReNU). is a collaborative doctoral training programme run by the Universities of Northumbria, Newcastle and Durham. Read more
Coccolithophore production during recent past warm intervals: unlocking the Southern Ocean’s deepest secrets (acronym: HINTS)
Applications are invited for a fully-funded three-year PhD to commence in October 2023. The PhD will be based in the School of the Environment, Geography & Geoscience, and will be supervised by. Read more
Enhanced crustal fertility facilitates mineral endowment in Meso- to Neoarchaean cratons
Summary. Many late Archaean economic mineral deposits are associated with the re-melting or leaching of older source rocks. Understanding the controls on crustal metal endowment will allow exploration efforts to be focussed on the most favourable crustal regions. Read more
PhD Studentship in Astrobiology available from 1st October 2023
The School of Physical Sciences offers full-time, fully funded (maintenance stipend and home-fees) PhD studentships available to start in October 2023. Read more
Geochemical impact of CO2 and H2 injection on geomechanical and petrophysical properties of caprock to ensure safe containment: an experimental and analytical approach
The overall aim for the PhD is to develop a comprehensive understanding of geochemical effects on the geomechanics and petrophysics of a wide range of caprocks which can be utilised by bp to understand the potential risks of CO. Read more
PhD in Geology - Shocking details about the death of the dinosaurs from alkali feldspars
Aims. The impact of a ~12 km diameter asteroid sixty-six million years ago caused one of the most devastating mass extinctions in Earth history. Read more
Remediation of eutrophic waters through passive adsorption
Applications are invited for a self-funded, 3-year full-time or 6-year part time PhD project. The PhD will be based in the School of Civil Engineering and Surveying, and will be supervised by . Read more
PhD in Geographical and Earth Sciences - Xenoliths in carbonaceous chondrite meteorites as treasure troves of early Solar System history
Aims. This project will explore the dynamics and composition of our Solar System during its tumultuous birth ~4.5 billion years ago by studying fragments of highly primitive asteroids that are preserved as xenoliths in meteorites. Read more
