澳大利亚昆士兰大学读博的奖学金机会
------------------------------------------------------------------------
昆士兰大学博士奖学金机会
1. 满足昆士兰大学的基本招收要求.（每年有4次受理申请机会）。
2. 专业要求：即将或者已经获得硕士学位的化学材料冶金大类的学生。
3. 课题来至于澳洲基金委支持的项目（Australian Research Council - Discovery Project Scheme）是有关于清洁能源技术方面的研究同时还同Virginia Tech, USA有交流合作。具体请参看下文的介绍。
4. 联系方式：Dr Liguang Wang by email: L.Wang2@uq.edu.au.
Project Description:
Gas hydrates occur abundantly in ocean sediments and permafrost regions. Methane hydrate represents a potential source of clean energy, while formation of carbon dioxide hydrate can be utilised as an alternative carbon sequestration technology and an alternative water desalination process. The fundamentals of the processes associated with gas hydrate formation and dissociation remain unclear, posing an impediment to technology development for methane extraction and hydrate utilisation. This project employs state-of-the-art surface analytical tools to explore the mechanism of gas hydrate formation and dissociation. The results will improve understanding of the sub-processes of hydrate formation and decomposition on a molecular level and, on the basis of which, help develop an advanced kinetic model of gas hydrate formation. This is a project in collaboration with Center for Advanced Separation Technology, Virginia Tech, USA. This three-year project will start in early 2010.
Academic Supervisors:
Dr Liguang Wang and Prof Anh V. Nguyen
Funding Source: Australian Research Council - Discovery Project Scheme.
Financial Support for Your PhD Study:
Living allowance scholarship for three years: $26,669 (tax-free) per annum.
Tuition fee: If you are an international student, you will be automatically considered as an applicant for a tuition fee scholarship when you lodge your PhD study application to UQ. However, the tuition scholarships are awarded to top-quality candidates who often have research master’s degree and publications on high-quality journals.
