A PhD scholarship is available in Bioenergy group at Department of Environmental Engineering, Technical University of Denmark within the project “Innovative bio-electrochemical- anaerobic-digestion coupled system for ammonia recovery and energy production from ammonia-rich residues” funded by the Danish Council for Independent Research, Technology and Production Sciences.
Responsibilities and tasks
The candidate will participate in a newly granted project, which aims to develop an innovative process integrating bio-electrochemical system with anaerobic digestion to recover ammonia and thereby enhance bio-methanation of ammonia-rich residues.
In this process, ammonia recovery and energy production will be realized in a bio-electrochemical system. Moreover, removal of ammonia from anaerobic reactor will alleviate or counteract ammonia inhibition and enhance the conversion of ammonia-rich wastes to biogas, giving synergistic advantages for both ammonia recycling and increase of biogas production.The candidate will perform a thorough study to optimize system performance, address potential limitations, and to find corresponding technical solutions.
