hela Sverige Welcome to Linnaeus University! A place for knowledge, ideas and development. For growth potential and a belief in the future. In Småland and in the world.
The Department of Forestry and Wood Technology carries out research and provides education in the value chain from the market back to silviculture. The field is thematic with an anchored base in the different research topics along the value chain. Research and education are well developed in the wood products value chains and new areas of interest for the future are non-wood forest products and other values of the forest.
The Department of Forestry and Wood Technology works together with the neighboring institutions, Building Technology and the Built Environment and Energy Technology, to create a research environment that includes "forestry, wood technology, wood construction and sustainable built environment". Home of the environment is the Faculty of Technology.
Field of subject for the position: Postdoc fellowship in Bio-based Materials and Composite Products

Context of position:
Sustainable raw material management and reduction of waste is a global necessity but also a possibility to maintain a high quality of life. Research initiatives should aim to increase resource efficiency through the wise use of primary and secondary bio-based raw materials for new sustainable products for furniture and building applications. It can be thus increased the total volume of CO2 stored as bio-based products, enlarging the life cycle of the fixed carbon in the new products. These efficiency actions could accommodate small-businesses start-up and enhancement of the competitive position of the existing ones.
Environmental and efficiency technologies represent the growth and leading markets for the future and, thus, investment in such business areas will boost resource and cost efficiency, enhance regional and international competitiveness and will have a positive impact on the job situation. The possibilities of using appropriate raw material streams for developing new products should be explored in close co-operation with the concerned sectors (furniture, construction, recycling) to take advantage of the novel technologies and market opportunities.
The working tasks consist mainly of research in Bio-based Materials and Composite Products.
Other duties can be:
• Conduct independent scientific research in the laboratory
