The list of the projects:
PhD Project E1: Engineering Manure: creating more effective manure-based fertilizers
PhD Project E3: Enhancing the local water cycle via evaporation for a sustainable water supply
PhD Project E6: Enhanced phototropic biomass production by supplying hydrogen gas
PhD Project E7: Optimising electrochemical phosphate recovery
PhD Project E8: Understanding the kinetics, transfers and reactions in biological gas desulphurisation process
PhD Project E14: EPS-based solutions to increase soil structure and resilience to drought
