PhD Studentship - Space-based Constraints on UK Ammonia Emissions and Air Quality Impacts

PhD plan, please see the project page on the University of Leeds website. Please state your entry requirements plus any necessary or desired background Applicants to this scholarship in the School

PhD Studentship: Investigating porosity changes and stress mechanics of corroding nuclear wastes under confined expansion

overall porosity increase and volume expansion have only been observed in unconfined cases, where reaction rates are appreciable. This PhD project will work alongside leading teams within the University

PhD Studentship: An investigation on the tribochemical surface interactions of molten salt reactors

considered. Subject Area Applied Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry, Synthetic Chemistry, Fluid Mechanics, Manufacturing Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Nuclear Physics

PhD scholarship in Amine Carry-over and Impurity Effects on localised Corrosion in sc-CO2 – DTU Chemical Engineering

(France), and University of Leeds (UK). The advertised position is for DCR4. The PhD project (DCR4) investigates impurities in the pure CO2 stream produced from CO2 capture. Small impurities will be carried

PhD Studentship: Developing a digital twin for validation of packing optimisers used for nuclear decommissioning

-set. You will be funded for 3 years and will pursue a doctoral degree during this time. This DR position is based at the University of Leeds and will involve expanding and developing our iSIM (instant

PhD Studentship: Modular intensified ion exchange utilising agitated tubular reactors

. For this PhD, you will work alongside some of the UK’s leading nuclear researchers at Leeds, as part of the Nuclear Engineering Group, to develop process intensification equipment for ion exchange, based

PhD Studentship: Preparing Corroded Magnox Fuel Waste for Long Term Storage: Rheology Mapping of Complex Fluids

.  Encapsulating the sludge for long term storage is a high priority for the industry. To mobilize and process the material it is important to understand its rheological properties and how rheology is modified when
