You will get the chance to develop new diagnostic tools and assess them on commercial scale with industrial participation. The need to strengthen knowledge in the area of alkali transformation is great in many applications and we consider this project to be a platform for continued research and development.
Information about the division and the department
You are applying for a position at the department of Space Earth and Environment. The position also involves close collaboration with the department of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering and together we form a team of internationally recognized scientists in the area of energy and materials in high-temperature processes.
The project focuses on the need to quantify potassium and sodium species in complex atmospheres. The species are of practical interest due to their importance to both material and gas phase chemistry in high-temperature processes. Reactor systems available in our laboratories will be used to develop new and refined approaches to quantify these components. Field experiments will be conducted together with industrial partners.
Major responsibilities
You will be expected to formulate own scientific questions within the defined frame of the project
You are expected to plan experimental campaigns, follow results and present them for different actors
You are expected to summarize results in scientific reports and scientific publications as well as to participate in scientific forums
Within your duties as a post-doc you will be offered the possibility to teach to undergraduate and graduate students.
