MSc by research studentship, Cranfield University

Tautan

Supported by Severn Trent Water, a studentship of £17,500 p.a.*for 15 months plus fees*

Cranfield University’s internationally recognised Centre for Water Science, in collaboration with Severn Trent Water, has an exciting MSc by Research opportunity for a motivated graduate to examine the processes responsible for producing greenhouse gases as a result of the biological treatment of domestic wastewater

The project will quantify greenhouse gas emissions emanating from nitrifying works when operated under different energy input conditions. This information will then be linked to the impact of meeting stringent discharge quality consents and minimising the industry’s carbon footprint.

The student will be primarily based at Severn Trent Water’s Research and Development in Coventry, with frequent interaction with both the Centre for Water Science at Cranfield University and various departments within Severn Trent. Embedded within the larger strategic partnership between Cranfield, Severn Trent Water and Atkins on wastewater research, the project will use the wastewater characteristics and performance information from Severn Trent Water, and be executed with assistance from key Severn Trent employees and personnel from Atkins Global Ltd. The project will involve significant field work activities as well as process engineering calculations and data analysis.

Anticipated Start date: November 2010

Entry Requirements
Applicants should have a first or upper second class UK honours degree or equivalent in a related subject such as engineering, biology, environmental science or chemistry. An understanding of biological treatment technologies is desirable.
