Environmental Engineering (low carbon) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 29 Environmental Engineering (low carbon) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Low carbon hydrogen production from biomass gasification

Prospective Start Date. 1 October 2024. Supervisor. Dr Paula Blanco Sanchez. Co-Supervisor. Dr Scott Banks. Applications are invited for a three-year Postgraduate studentship, supported by Aston University to be undertaken within the Energy & bioproducts Research Institute (EBRI) at Aston University. Read more

Net zero housing retrofits - assuring a sustainable low-carbon transition in the domestic sector

The UK has committed to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. The UK's 29 million houses represent 14% of total emissions (CCC, 2019), with nearly 90% of these built more than 20 years ago before stricter energy efficiency standards came into force (Ince & Marvin, 2019). Read more

Economic and environmental assessment of energy systems integration for increased utilisation and reduced curtailment of offshore wind farms

This Research Project is part of the EPSRC CDT in Offshore Wind Energy Resilience and Sustainability’s Energy Economics Cluster. The CDT is a partnership between Hull, Durham, Loughborough and Sheffield universities, along with over 40 industry partners. Read more

Locking CO2 into cement: new perspectives from advanced spectroscopic techniques

EPSRC DTP studentship in Engineering. 3.5 years starting 1st October 2024, 1st January 2025 or 1st April 2025. Project Summary. Our aim is to improve carbon capture and utilisation (CCU) in the cement and concrete industry by introducing reactive carbonates to replace clinkers. 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

Decarbonisation of the Food System

As the world transitions to a low carbon economic system, dramatic changes will be required across the all sectors. The food system, which is currently estimated to be responsible for 20-30% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, is one where particular urgency is required. 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
