Phd in Carbon Membranes Development

2 maanden geleden


Eindhoven, Nederland TU Eindhoven Voltijd

**Job description**:
The Partnership Sustainable Process Engineering consists of the four groups Chemical Reactor Engineering headed by prof.dr.ir. John van der Schaaf, the group on biomass processing of dr. Neira d’Angelo, the group Energy Intensified Chemical Reaction Engineering of prof.dr. Evgeny Rebrov and the Inorganic Membranes & Membrane Reactors group of prof.dr.eng. Fausto Gallucci. The SPE partnership consists of 3 Professors and 1UD, (all acting as PIs), 15 postdocs, more than 55 PhD students and 7 support staff.

The group's mission is to be among the world's top academic research groups in its field and to be leading in the development of novel technologies for new, highly efficient, inherently safe, and robust (micro)structured multiphase processing systems, which show the best productivity by a dedicated design of all relevant dimensions and optimum choice of dedicated operational procedures.

Research in the Gallucci group is related to the development of membranes and novel multiphase reactors, in particular membrane reactors and dynamically operated reactors. The research focuses on the interaction of heterogeneous catalysis, transport phenomena, and fluid mechanics in these novel multifunctional reactors. The SIR chair coordinates and participates in several large European Projects and works in strict collaborations with several industrial partners.

**Project description**

Carbon membranes are developed via carbonization of a thermosetting polymer film. The tunability of carbon membrane structure for specific separations relies on several key factors: the careful selection of polymer precursors, which determine the functional groups and pore architecture, as well as the carbonization temperature and choice of sweep gas during the process.

**Job requirements**:

- Experience in membrane technology
- Strong background in experimental membrane research
- Knowledge about analytics in general is appreciated
- Has interest in scaling up the production of membranes to industrial scales

**Conditions of employment**:
A meaningful job in a dynamic and ambitious university, in an interdisciplinary setting and within an international network. You will work on a beautiful, green campus within walking distance of the central train station. In addition, we offer you:

- Full-time employment for four years, with an intermediate evaluation (go/no-go) after nine months. You will spend 10% of your employment on teaching tasks.
- Salary and benefits (such as a pension scheme, paid pregnancy and maternity leave, partially paid parental leave) in accordance with the _Collective Labour Agreement_ for Dutch Universities, scale P (min. €2,872 max. €3,670).
- A year-end bonus of 8.3% and annual vacation pay of 8%.
- High-quality training programs and other support to grow into a self-aware, autonomous scientific researcher. At TU/e we challenge you to take charge of your own learning process.
- An excellent technical infrastructure, on-campus children's day care and sports facilities.
- An allowance for commuting, working from home and internet costs.
