Chemical Engineering Postgraduate Research Programmes
Work on your own area of specialism. Collaborate with academic and industry colleagues.
Chemical Engineering research
Our chemical engineering research addresses major societal challenges. We are leading the way in developing new materials and new technologies for a cleaner future.
Our research is wide-ranging and world-renowned. We have close connections with many partners in government and industry. We also work with global companies and organisations. Our research groups include:
Collaboration
Work on projects with other schools in the University throughout your PhD in chemical engineering. Collaborate with external institutions and companies, many of which are household names. These collaborative projects reflect the multidisciplinary nature of our research.
Projects cover a wide range of activities such as:
- food processing
- water treatment systems
- process intensification technology
- solvent extraction
- polymer reactors
- process modelling and control
- design of electrochemical reactors and fuel cells
- clean technology
