The PhD project 'Quantifying and abating greenhouse gas emissions from large wastewater treatment plants' is an industrial-academic collaboration between Newcastle University and Northumbrian Water Limited. The project contributes to the 'Race to Net Carbon Zero' commitment by many private and public organizations. The work will characterize the emissions of greenhouse gases by Waste Water Treatment Plants (WWTPs) using a combination of direct measurements and bioreactor-scale laboratory measurements. The student will be trained how to conduct the gas analyses according to Best Practice guidelines to facilitate comparison with independent measurements and place the measurements within the broader context of greenhouse gas budgets. Overall, the project is an excellent opportunity to develop analytical skills for application in the industrial workplace and contribute to an improvement in waste water treatment processes by achieving carbon neutrality.

博士项目“量化和减少大型污水处理厂的温室气体排放”是纽卡斯尔大学和诺森伯兰水务有限公司之间的工业-学术合作。该项目有助于许多私人和公共组织的“净碳零竞赛”承诺。这项工作将使用直接测量和生物反应器规模的实验室测量相结合的方式来表征废水处理厂（WWTPs）的温室气体排放。学生将接受如何根据最佳实践指南进行气体分析的培训，以便于与独立测量进行比较，并将测量置于温室气体预算的更广泛背景下。总的来说，该项目是一个很好的机会，可以培养在工业工作场所应用的分析技能，并通过实现碳中和来改善废水处理过程。
