Strategic competence development

The Research Council of Norway awarded the Gas Technology Center and the Centre of Renewable Energy (SFFE) a total of 10 PhD and Post Doctoral scholarships in 2005.

The Gas Technology Center has 4 PhD students and 1 Post Doc student in this "PhD-pool", funded by Renergi. The focus of the Center has been membranes and combustion.

The PhD and Post Doctoral students involved are:
