PhD opportunity at The University of Queensland in the School of Chemical Engineering for a project on coupling green hydrogen production with biomass waste valorisation . The research sits at the intersection of chemistry , chemical engineering , materials science , electrocatalysis , and energy conversion . The project aims to design and develop nanostructured catalysts for paired electrolysis, replacing the oxygen evolution reaction with the oxidation of biomass-derived feedstocks such as gly...

PhD opportunity at The University of Queensland in the School of Chemical Engineering, focused on engineering next-generation nanocatalysts for solar-driven production of methanol . The project targets the conversion of CO2 and CO from industrial emissions and by-products into methanol and related fuels via a photothermal pathway . Research will involve nanomaterials synthesis , catalyst design, and advanced characterisation to build robust structure–activity relationships. Students will gain ha...
