The Circular Process Engineering Laboratory (CPEL) at Dalhousie University, a leading Canadian research institution, is offering a fully funded PhD position starting Summer 2026. This opportunity is ideal for candidates passionate about clean-energy solutions, catalysis, and sustainable biofuel production. The research focuses on catalytic pyrolysis, the development and characterization of novel catalysts, and the conversion of biomass and waste-derived feedstocks into high-value fuels and chemi...

A fully funded PhD position is available at Université Laval (Québec City, Canada) under the supervision of Prof. Céline Vaneeckhaute. The research focuses on the remediation of Lake Saint-Augustin using combined phosphate adsorption and phytoremediation techniques, with both pilot and full-scale field implementation. The project aims to address persistent eutrophication and impaired water quality by developing scalable, real-world remediation strategies that combine reactive media for phosphate...

The Sustainable Optoelectronics Research Group at Simon Fraser University, led by Associate Professor Vincenzo Pecunia, is recruiting PhD students and postdoctoral researchers for interdisciplinary projects at the forefront of solar energy, perovskite materials, and clean technology innovation. The group focuses on three main research areas: wide-bandgap perovskites for tandem photovoltaics (next-generation high-efficiency solar cells), printable organic solar cells for agrivoltaics (integrating...
