Description:

Are you an early career researcher looking for your first challenge? Do you have a background in Cement Research? Do you want to further your career in one of the UK’s leading research-intensive universities?

The overarching aim of this research project is reproducing cement from Rubble. The outcomes intend to enable closed loop recycling of concrete.

This role involves high-temperature calorimetry and synthesis of clinkers with different heating modes (e.g., microwave), followed by phase assemblage and microstructure characterisation to deliver optimal performance and the best hydration characteristics which must also be assessed.

This role is part of the Innovate UKraine project on the Safe, Sustainable, and Swift Reconstruction of Ukraine. You will work with universities, businesses, and NGOs across Europe in an innovation and demonstration project that can swiftly deliver social, environmental, and economic benefits across war and disaster torn regions, as well as develop an ultimate solution for the recycling of all end-of-life concrete.
