Accepting PhD Students

PhD projects

Joe Wood’s research activities cover fundamental catalyst design, through formulation and catalyst manufacture to operational issues and reactor design. His group aims to optimise reactor type, design and operating conditions to get the best performance and product selectivity in a particular reaction. Professor Wood’s group welcomes applications from prospective doctoral researchers on topics such as:

Upgrading of heavy oils
Development of adsorbents for carbon dioxide capture
Testing of bionanocatalysts
Catalysis for sustainable technologies
Modelling of carbon capture at power plants
Upgrading of bio-oils and associated model compounds
Chemical recycling of polymers and membrane separation
