JOB DESCRIPTION:
CIC energiGUNE is seeking for three experienced postdocs to work in a challenging and novel project focused on green H2 production by thermo-chemical water splitting activated through non-conventional heating (microwave and magnetic). The project requires a multidisciplinary approach combining chemical, physical and engineering disciplines in order to reach successfully the objectives set, one above the others the efficient production of Green Hydrogen under mild conditions (low temperature) and preferentially using industrial wastes as primary feedstock (contribution to environmental protection and circular economy).
The main pillars of the project are listed below:
All in all, this is a very ambitious project since thermo-chemical water splitting under non-conventional heating is still at a very initial stage. Therefore, the selected postdocs must show the commitment, dedication and passion in facing these exciting and new challenges.
The candidates will have the chance to work in a multidisciplinary environment composed by Chemists, Physicists and Engineers having the possibility to extend their knowledge approaching the research under different points of view.
Job function:
WHAT WE OFFER:
We are offering a 36 months contract and advantageous professional development opportunities and a rewarding and challenging job in an international environment.
Access to a complete set of existing laboratory infrastructure and equipment, as well as to the needs identified during the project development to ensure a fruitful stay and the fulfillment of the objectives in due time.
Integration in an enthusiastic and multidisciplinary young group with great projection and commitments with sustainability and research quality.
