PhD Opportunities in Energy Engineering in Turkey

This PhD project at the Department of Biosystems and Technology , Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU), explores how green biomass from agriculture can be used more sustainably in integrated systems for green biorefineries and biogas production . The project is rooted in the transition toward a circular, fossil-independent bioeconomy and focuses on biomass sources such as crop residues and catch crops , which may be available without increasing competition for farmland and food prod...

This PhD project is based at the Department of Biosystems and Technology at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences and is connected to the national Biogas Solutions Research Center (BSRC). The work sits at the interface of agricultural science, biomass supply, and biogas-oriented bioeconomy systems. The project will investigate how agricultural crop biomass can be used as a substrate for biogas while supporting the development of sustainable cropping systems. Using a field experiment pl...

This PhD project is part of TWIG, a five-year ERC Starting Grant focused on tropical forest biomass flows that are usually missed by conventional inventories. The work combines repeated terrestrial laser scanning with long-term forest monitoring to directly quantify damage, recovery, and biomass redistribution in mature tropical forests. The doctoral researcher will study the environmental and biological drivers of tree-level biomass changes and the ecological consequences of small-scale disturb...

This PhD project is hosted within the Biogas Solutions Research Center (BSRC) at Linköping University and focuses on how biogas initiatives develop into viable business ventures and how they can contribute to wider diffusion of biogas systems. The research links sustainability transitions with international business development from a company perspective, asking why some projects succeed while others stall or fail. The student will investigate how business models, partnerships, and local institu...

This PhD position is based at the Department of Aquatic Resources at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU Aqua) and focuses on the management and conservation of critically endangered fish, with a particular emphasis on eel ( Anguilla ). The project addresses key knowledge gaps around trap and transport (T&T) , a management method used to support fish migration in river systems with barriers and to reduce turbine mortality for downstream-moving fish. The doctoral project is desig...

CarbonLab at Aalborg University is seeking one or more PhD candidates to help advance Direct Air Capture (DAC) technologies. The project addresses the scientific and engineering challenges that remain before DAC can be deployed at very large scale, with a focus on developing energy-efficient, economically viable systems built on a deeper understanding of how materials, processes and system integration interact. The PhD work is linked to two research directions: developing process-aware methods f...

The Department of Engineering Science at the University of Skövde offers a creative and collaborative research environment with modern facilities, strong industrial links, and a track record of applied research and high-quality education. The successful doctoral student will join a team whose work is relevant to industry, society, and academia, and will be based in the area of information technology as defined by the university. This PhD project focuses on smart grids in the context of industria...

This PhD position is based at RWTH Aachen University within the Chair of Thermodynamics of Mobile Energy Conversion Systems (TME) and the Institute of Thermodynamics , in the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering. The research environment is embedded in the chair’s broader work at the Center for Mobile Propulsion (CMP) , where the focus lies on mobile propulsion systems, including internal combustion engines with synthetic fuels, fuel cells, and battery-electric drives. The advertised project is cen...

This EngD project at the University of Twente focuses on standardizing fieldwork and data management for Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) measurements at the university’s Utility Mapping Site (UMS). The project addresses a clear research gap: although many GPR systems are available, there is no systematic method for collecting, documenting, and comparing measurement data across systems and environmental settings. You will work on developing a consistent protocol for GPR field measurements, includi...
