Area Engineering Location UK Other Closing Date Thursday 30 April 2026 Supervisors: Prof. Hao Liu, Dr Yaoyao Zheng, Nate Macmillan (AEL CCS) Programme Length: Four years Contract Type: Full-time Prospective Start Date: October 2026 The positions are filled in a first-in, first-served basis therefore we encourage early expression of interest. Net2Zero Centre for Doctoral Training The EPSRC and BBSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Negative Emission Technologies for Net Zero (CDT in Net2Zero) is an equal partnership between Aston University (lead), University of Nottingham, Queen’s University Belfast, and University of Warwick. Through cutting-edge research and interdisciplinary collaboration, this CDT aims to tackle global challenges related to climate change and sustainability. Our four-year doctoral programme is training the next generation of research leaders tasked to remove greenhouse gases from the environment. The CDT in Net2Zero focuses on the use of biomass to replace fossil fuels and removal (or capture) of CO2 from the atmosphere, with the potential to create new sources of fuels and chemicals. The centre’s expertise covers Direct Air Capture and CO2 Storage (DACCS), CO2 utilisation, biochar synthesis and utilisation, biomass transition to materials and chemicals, and biomass to energy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) etc. Training and Development Through our research training programme, you will be able to: Develop a network with doctoral researchers, academia, government and industry. Access to cutting-edge facilities and opportunities for international collaboration, preparing you for a successful career in academia, industry, or policymaking. Carry out a training programme covering practical engineering, communication, entrepreneurship, and business skills to prepare students for diverse sectors. The CDT facilitates direct contact between students, industrial partners, policy makers, and third sector organisations to support future careers. You will have the opportunity of a three-month placement with industry, research collaborators or policymakers. Project Overview and Background The project aims to develop and demonstrate a laboratory-scale reactor that can function as a biochar/bio-syngas generator and a bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) reactor. Objectives: In collaboration with a commercial laboratory furnace manufacturer, to conceptually design a laboratory-scale electrically heated furnace that can be used to house the multifunctional reactor. To design and work with university’s engineering technicians to manufacture at least two types (fluidised bed and fixed bed) of the laboratory-scale reactor that can be housed in the electrically heated furnace and used to produce biochar and to evaluate the BECCS technology based on calcium-based and other solid sorbents. To conduct biochar production tests by using the multifunctional reactor testing system with a range of biomass feedstocks and to characterise the biochar properties (e.g., pore size distribution, porosity) by using various analytical equipment (e.g., BET, SEM, XRD, TGA) available at the University of Nottingham. To conduct CO2 capture tests by using the multifunctional reactor testing system with Calcium-based sorbents (at high temperatures) and other solid sorbents (including biochar-derived sorbents) (at low temperatures) – simulated CO2-containing gaseous mixtures will be used for the 1st phase of the tests and real CO2-containing flue gases will be tested in the 2nd phase of the tests. Person Specification Essential: Ideal candidates should hold or expect to gain a first-class or an upper second-class honours degree (or their equivalent) in one of the following subjects before the start date of the project: Chemical engineering Mechanical engineering Materials sciences Chemistry Or a closely related subject.
