Fully Funded PhD Positions on Combustion and Material Recycling at UNC Charlotte
|
The Energy and Materials Conversion and Combustion (EMC² Laboratory at UNC Charlotte is seeking two highly motivated PhD students, starting from Spring/Fall 2027. The lab will be led by Dr. Daoguan Ning, incoming Assistant Professor, who received his PhD from Eindhoven University of Technology and conducted postdoctoral research at the Technical University of Darmstadt and Stanford University. His research focuses on combustion, energy conversion, recycling materials, and advanced optical diagnostics. Dr. Ning has published over 20 peer-reviewed journal articles (see Google Scholar: https://scholar.google.com/citat ... h-CN&oi=ao), including 11 papers in leading combustion journals, and holds a German invention patent. Students will work on cutting-edge research in sustainable energy, combustion, and critical-material recycling while collaborating with academic, national laboratory, and industrial partners.-About the University The University of North Carolina at Charlotte (UNC Charlotte) is a Carnegie R1 research university located in Charlotte, North Carolina—the largest city in the state and the second-largest banking and financial center in the United States. Charlotte offers an exceptional quality of life, featuring a mild climate, affordable living, and a vibrant urban environment. The university maintains strong partnerships with industry, government laboratories, and regional employers, providing outstanding opportunities for research collaboration and career development. -Research Areas Our research aims to understand, measure, and model the fundamental processes governing thermochemical reacting systems. By combining advanced experiments, optical diagnostics, and computational modeling, we develop innovative materials, reaction pathways, and reactor concepts for sustainable energy conversion, propulsion, and critical-material recovery. Current research topics include: Key directions： ++Optical diagnostics and modeling of energy-dense solid fuel combustion -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This research focuses on understanding the ignition, combustion, and product formation of conventional and next-generation solid fuels, including metal fuels, energetic materials, and their composites. Students will employ advanced optical and laser-based diagnostics, high-speed imaging, spectroscopy, and numerical modeling to quantify combustion behavior and develop predictive models for solid-fuel systems. ++Sustainable Separation and Recycling of Critical Minerals ------------------------------------------------------------------- This research aims to develop efficient and environmentally sustainable technologies for recovering critical minerals from end-of-life products and industrial waste streams. Examples include lithium-ion batteries, permanent magnets, and electronic waste. Research activities involve designing novel pyro-, hydro-, and bio-metallurgical processes, characterizing reaction mechanisms and products, and optimizing recovery efficiency through advanced diagnostics and modeling. Qualifications： - Background in Combustion, Mechanical Engineering, Thermal and Power Engineering, Material Science, Chemical Engineering, Optics, Experimental Fluid Mechanism, Mining Engineering, Applied Physics, and relevant disciplines. - Be highly motivated, self-driven, and capable of conducting independent research. - Experimental research experience and publication are highly preferred but not compulsory. - English and GPA requirements: IELTS≥6.5 or TOEFL ≥83 (English requirement can be waived for candidates who have at least one-year education experience in English-spoken countries); GPA ≥3.5. - GRE scores are preferred and may strengthen an application. - Students ranked top 15% in their cohort/class are highly encouraged to apply. - Financial Support： Competitive PhD assistantships are available and typically include: - Full tuition support Health insurance Annual stipend Funding for conference travel and professional development - How to apply： - Please send your application materials to Dr. Daoguan Ning via email dning@charlotte.edu, including: CV Transcripts Research summary and/or relevant publications (if available) A brief statement of research interests |
