Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Swinburne Full time

About the Scholarships

In partnership with CSIRO, Swinburne University is offering four PhD scholarships for research in advanced materials processing. The successful applicants will collaborate with Swinburne researchers, CSIRO, and industry partners to develop innovative solutions for critical element recovery and sustainable resource management.

  • This PhD project aims to investigate the thermodynamics and kinetics of direct reduced iron (DRI) production using high-phosphorus, silica, and alumina-rich iron ores from the Pilbara region in Australia.
  • The research will explore the complex interactions of gangue minerals during the reduction process, focusing on the formation of fayalites and low melting point aluminosilicates.
  • The project will involve both experimental and modelling studies, including systematic critical literature review, thermodynamic modelling, and high-temperature experimentation.
