About the Project

This research project focuses on developing cost-effective and sustainable rechargeable batteries using zinc as a key component. Zinc offers significant advantages over lithium, including lower cost, enhanced safety, and high recycling efficiency. The project will investigate manganese-based air electrodes for use in rechargeable zinc-air batteries (RZABs), exploring their potential to deliver improved performance through structural modifications and tailored active sites.

Your Role as a PhD Researcher

As a PhD researcher, you will play a vital role in designing and conducting experiments to develop and evaluate novel manganese-based RZAB cells. You will collaborate closely with our experienced team of researchers to advance innovative strategies for enhancing RZAB technology. Your research findings will be disseminated through high-impact scientific publications and presentations at international conferences.

Qualifications and Requirements

  • A first-class or 2:1 honours degree (or equivalent) in materials science, chemistry, physics, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, manufacturing, or a related field.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
  • A genuine interest in applied scientific research within the field of energy storage.

Benefits

  • Full funding for the duration of your PhD program (3 years), including a stipend and tuition fees.
  • Access to state-of-the-art laboratory facilities and equipment.
  • Guidance and mentorship from a team of experienced researchers and professors.
  • Networking opportunities with leading experts in the field and participation in international conferences.
