Analytical and Physical Chemistry (double degree)
Doctoral Programme,
Faculty of Chemical Engineering
Joint study programme with foreign universities - two diplomas for one study.
The aim of the double-degree doctoral study programme Analytical and Physical Chemistry is to educate highly qualified specialists with theoretical knowledge and practical skills in analytical and physical chemistry. Graduates of this programme will be prepared for independent research work at academic institutions, universities or in practice in the field of analytical drug chemistry, forensic analytical chemistry, quality engineering and analytical chemistry, technical physical chemistry, thermodynamics, quantum chemistry, chemical physics, membrane engineering, etc. CareersThe graduate of the double-degree programme Analytical and Physical Chemistry will have theoretically and practically mastered experimental techniques and instrumentations corresponding to his/her specialization and qualified knowledge of principles and possibilities of its use. Furthermore, the mastered methodology of interdisciplinary scientific work, modern laboratory and computational techniques, advanced methods of applied mathematics and statistics together with language- and soft-skills will ensure to the graduate the appropriate personnel growth, increased society prestige and better position on the labour market.

Ph.D. topics for study year 2023/24Solvent and pH stable membranes with ultra-sharp molecular weight cut-off values for nanofiltration and pervaporation
AnnotationCurrent membrane separation processes allow efficient purification of polar or non-polar solvents from undesirable components on the basis of a size-sieving (pressure-driven methods) or chemical affinity (solution-diffusion mechanism). The thesis will focus on testing of robust, pH stable membrane materials with targeted separation properties for specific membrane operations. In addition to the preparation, characterization, and testing of materials, the work will also include modelling of the separation process. The result of this work will be, besides the preparation of an effective separation material and describing the model, an extension of knowledge in the given membrane field.

Removal of heavy metal ions from water using graphene oxide precursors and single-wall cabon nanotubes
AnnotationThe presence of heavy metal ions in water is a serious problem for human health and the environment. The ability to efficiently and easily remove unwanted cations from water by adsorption without the need for the use of non-organic agents poses a global challenge to scientists in the art. There will be studied the possibility of using newly prepared adsorption materials based on carbon materials (doped and modified graphene derivatives and carbon nanotubes). Besides preparation, characterization and testing of material properties and adsorbent efficiency for effective removal of contaminants from water, the work will also include development of methodology for post-process separation of adsorbent from purified water. The result of the work will be in addition to the preparation of effective adsorption material and the extension of knowledge in the given material and process field.
