Chemical Engineering (behaviour) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 47 Chemical Engineering (behaviour) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

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

Droplet Impacts with Functional Surfaces

These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more

Hydrogen trapping and permeation in metallic and ceramic coatings for fusion powerplant applications

  Research Group: Coatings and Ceramics
Future fusion powerplants must maintain tritium inventory to ensure safe and sustainable plant operations. Structural materials in the breeder blanket and tritium extraction systems will be exposed to tritium and lithium. Read more

Precision control of Nano-fuel production

Storing hydrogen nanobubbles in liquid carriers to produce hydrogen nano-fuels offers significant benefits in terms of efficiency, safety and sustainability. Read more

Microfluidic-assisted particle manipulation in complex fluid environments for biomedical and engineering applications

We are delighted to offer two new PhD positions (one experimental and one numerical) on “particle manipulation in complex fluid environments for biomedical and engineering applications” at Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering - University of Strathclyde. Read more

CFD simulation of a perforated rotating bucket in the prilling process

  Research Group: Advanced Materials Engineering
Prilling is a finishing process in chemical and petrochemical industries for producing reasonably uniform spherical particles from molten solutions of chemicals such as urea or ammonium nitrate. Read more

Thermal hydraulics modelling of low-pressure, light water-cooled Small Modular Reactors

The Low-Pressure Water Reactor (LPWR) is a 300MW(e) pool-type water-cooled Small Modular Reactor (SMR) design in which the nuclear core is located at the bottom of a deep underground shaft instead of inside a pressure vessel. Read more

Foam improved oil recovery

Typically in oil and gas production, only a small fraction of the oil present manages to flow out of an oil reservoir under the reservoir’s own pressure. Read more

Model-based Approach for Prognostics Health Management (PHM) for Fusion Reactors

  Research Group: Plasma and fusion science and technologies
The University of York is at the forefront of transformative research in data-centric engineering, digital twins, and AI, bringing about a revolution in the design and operation of systems. Read more

Explainable AI for Safety Critical Engineering Systems

  Research Group: Intelligent Systems and Robotics
The University of York is at the forefront of transformative research in data-centric engineering, digital twins, and AI. Our pioneering work is revolutionizing the design of complex systems by harnessing the power of data. Read more
