hela Sverige RISE ETC seeks a Postdoc for R&D work in the area of production and characterisation of nanocarbon particlesRISE is the Swedish Research Institute and innovation partner. In international collaboration with industry, academia and the public sector, we ensure the competitiveness of the business community and contribute to a sustainable society. Our 2,700 employees support and promote all manner of innovative processes. RISE is an independent, state-owned research institute that offers unique expertise and about 100 testbeds and demonstration facilities, instrumental in future-proofing technologies, products and services.
www.ri.seRISE is expanding in the field of bioeconomy. We are now looking for a new colleague who wants to be a part of the development towards a future circular och fossil-free society. We work in close cooperation with industry and researchers worldwide. Together, we generate and refine research results and ideas based primarily on forest raw materials.RISE Energy Technology Center (ETC) performs research covering our thematic focus areas of sustainable hydrocarbon fuels, carbon free energy solutions, computer based process optimization and high value-added materials. Within our business there are currently around 25 employees, mainly researchers, engineers and technical staff.About the positionControlling the amount of nanocarbon particles (NCP) formed and its nanostructure is essential in many different fields. The purpose of this projects is to fill in knowledge gap regarding the oxidation process of NCP. Fundamental studies of the oxidation process of NCP under relevant process conditions are necessary to understand the complicated mechanisms that control the oxidation process. NCP will be produced under well controlled conditions at RISE ETC lab and characterised with different type of analytical equipment's (TGA, XRD, SEM/EDS, TEM/EDS and STEM/EELS). One specific goal is to investigate how different metals interact with carbon in the formation process of the NCP. The fundamental knowledge this project will generate can be used to choose the right process conditions, additives and/or intelligent biomass blends for complete fuel conversion and optimal efficiency for high temperature thermochemical processes or for generated NCP with right material properties for energy storages.Location: PiteåWho are you?You are an experienced, communicative and cooperative person who individually can perform experimental work and document scientific results.
