PhD Opportunity in CO₂ Capture and Conversion at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University
PhD opportunity in
CO₂ capture and conversion
at
The Hong Kong Polytechnic University
(PolyU), with research aligned to
chemical engineering
,
chemistry
,
materials science
, and
environmental engineering
. The project focuses on sustainable technologies and climate solutions, especially
CO₂ capture
,
CO₂ conversion
,
catalysis
,
electrochemistry
,
porous materials
, and
membranes
.
The post says Daniel Lau is recruiting a PhD student. The linked PolyU programme page shows research postgraduate study in the Department of Applied Physics, including the research area of
Green Energy & Carbon Neutrality
, which explicitly covers electrochemical CO₂ conversion, electrocatalysis, heterogeneous catalysis, CO₂ capture, and utilization.
Eligibility highlights:
applicants should hold Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Materials Science, Environmental Engineering, or a related field; have relevant research experience in CO₂ capture, catalysis, electrochemistry, porous materials, membranes, or related areas; and have IELTS 6.5 or above. Strong motivation for research and good English communication skills are also required.
Application:
email your CV to
