The “Bioenergy/Biofuels and Green Hydrogen Technology” specialisation aims to provide students with in-depth scientific knowledge and skills in the fields of renewable energy, bioenergy and green hydrogen. This is underpinned by a cutting-edge understanding of the processing of biomass and waste into biofuels, green hydrogen and recoverable materials through various methods. In addition, students gain knowledge of biomass utilisation, waste management, the circular economy, and the economic and environmental aspects of such systems.

Students must take modules from the following module catalogue totalling 30 credit points.

  • Biochemical Hydrogen Potential Testing (BHP) and Industrial Experience
  • Bioenergy and Waste to Energy
  • Bioenergy Systems Modeling and LCA Simulations
  • Renewable Energy: Grid Connection, Controller Design and Grid Code Requirements
  • Sustainable Energy Systems and Energy Efficiency
  • System Engineering for H2 Production from Biomass - Management and Optimization of H2 Production Systems
  • Techno-economic Assessment of H2/Biofuels Production Technologies from Biomass and Wastes
  • Thermodynamics of Energy and Environmental Processes
  • Waste Management, Circular Economy, and Bioeconomy
