The aim of the project is to develop a sustainable and complete extraction process for metal recovery from secondary sources - spent Li-ion batteries. Process has to be designed and optimized for further industrialization within two years. Co-operation with the industrial partner will be one of the required tasks as well as mobility between pilot plant and demonstration plant. Process will aim for high efficiencies and high purity of the produced precursors.
Major responsibilities
Your major responsibilities as a post-doctoral fellow is to conduct research which will focus on the development of hydrometallurgical process for recovery of valuable metals, involving solvent extraction methods. The position involves extensive work in a chemical laboratory and adapting technical equipment.
Another important aspect involves collaboration within industrial partner and with society at large. The position is meritorious for future research duties within academia as well as industry/the public sector.
Qualifications
You must be a graduated PhD in solution chemistry or hydrometallurgy. The doctoral degree must have been awarded no more than three years prior to the application deadline (according to the current agreement with the Swedish Agency for Government Employers).
