Green Industrial Futures Heriot Watt University in United Kingdom

University of Bath, Department of Chemical Engineering, is advertising a competition-funded PhD studentship in mechanochemical synthesis and modification of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) for hydrogen storage . The project focuses on sustainable fabrication of porous materials, including HKUST-1 and selected zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs), using ball milling and other mechanochemical approaches. The research aims to understand how milling conditions, precursor composition, and modificat...

Heriot-Watt University is recruiting EPSRC Doctoral Prize Fellows for research continuation in CCUS (carbon capture, utilisation and storage) and DAC (direct air capture), with possible emphasis on experimental work, modelling, techno-economic analysis (TEA), and life cycle assessment (LCA) . This is a postdoctoral-level opportunity for candidates who have recently completed, or are close to completing, a PhD in the UK and were funded by EPSRC. The fellowship is hosted at Heriot-Watt University ...
