University of Bradford Chemical Engineering PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 18 University of Bradford Chemical Engineering PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Pharmacokinetics Guided Natural Products Exploration for Drug Discovery, Development, Delivery and Therapy

  Research Group: Institute of Cancer Therapeutics
Natural products have emerged as a key standard in novel and safe delivery of anticancer bioactive compounds. Apart from their ease of administration and delivery, natural/phytochemicals still face several hurdles, due to their physiochemical and pharmacokinetic properties. Read more

Waste to Energy - Torrefaction of Biomass and Organic Residues to Produce Solid Fuel

An increasing world energy demand, the depletion of conventional fossil fuel sources and a growing awareness of their environmental impacts, highlights the importance of promoting the use of alternative fuels from renewable sources. Read more

Tackling the challenges towards the sustainable production of green hydrogen

  Research Group: Centre For Sustainable Environments
Annual growth in World’s population results in a higher energy demand and a steady increase in CO. 2. emissions released into the environment, which are mainly originated from fossil fuel sources. Read more

Rational Control of Crystal Morphology

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
The external shape of crystalline particles (called morphology) is of paramount importance in a wide range of applications, in particular pharmaceuticals and pigments. Read more

Oxidic Nanomaterials for High Density Storage in Li-ion Batteries

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
The oxides of a number of materials are very appealing candidates as substitutes for conventional anodes in lithium-ion batteries because of their high theoretical capacity, high electric conductivity low potential of lithium ion intercalation, as well as superior electron mobilities, with one such material, SnO2 being particularly appealing. Read more

Optimisation of Batch Reactive Distillation Process

  Research Group: Water Engineering and Natural Environment
Although the batch reactive distillation process outperforms traditional reactor-distillation processes, due to simultaneous reaction and separation of products for many reaction systems, synthesis of many esters obtained via esterification with alcohols (such as methanol, ethanol) are still challenging. Read more

New Drugs for Brain Tumours: A Locoregional Implant Brain Tumours

  Research Group: Medicines Development and Pharmaceutical Sciences
Next-generation temozolomide derivatives for the treatment of high-grade glioma have been developed at the University of Bradford. Read more

Nanomaterials as White Light Emitters for Low Cost Lighting

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
White-light emission (WLE) from semiconductor nanostructures is presently a research area of intense interest especially where the primary objective is to replace conventional light sources by environmentally friendly materials in order to minimize energy costs and therefore the global energy consumption for lighting. Read more

Geopolymer reinforced concrete structural elements

  Research Group: Centre For Sustainable Environments
Geopolymers is an alkali-activated amorphous aluminosilicious cementitious material exhibiting the ideal properties of rock-forming minerals. Read more

Evaluation of properties of wood pellets for Bioenergy and Carbon Capture and Storage Application

The current state of the art for utilisation of wood pellets is co-firing and the co-generation of biomass combustion products. The safe and effective storage, transportation and processing of wood pellets is then highly important for bioenergy applications. Read more

Directed Co-Crystallisation of Pharmaceuticals: developing a predictive method for co-crystallisation

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
In this project, we propose to use a combination of computational and experimental techniques to develop a predictive method for co-crystallisation. Read more

Core and core-shell nanomaterials synthesis for Optoelectronics

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
Nanoscience and technology, which involves the manipulation of materials using the property of size to bring about specific desired changes in the electronic structure of materials, has proven to be a powerful additional tool permitting the materials scientist to effect greater control over the charge transport properties in materials.
