Research Associate in CO2 Conversion and Solar Fuels
School of Engineering and Physical Sciences
Heriot-Watt University -Institute of Mechanical, Process and Energy Engineering
£29,541 - £36,298 – 36 months
We are seeking a motivated and enthusiastic postdoctoral research associate to work on our EPSRC funded programme “Solar fuels via engineering innovation”, under the supervision of Prof Maroto-Valer. This research programme (£1.2m) will engineer novel photoreactors that can achieve efficient hydrocarbon conversion and separation from CO2 for solar fuel production. This will be achieved via an integrated approach between chemical engineers and chemists to intensify the process of CO2 photoreduction through reactor innovation, and thus, provide alternative future energy options.
The post is available from 1st April 2013 for 36 months in the first instance. Candidates must hold a PhD in chemical engineering or related discipline (or have submitted their thesis prior to appointment) and have a good publication record. Specific experience in CO2 conversion/capture or photoreactor design and modelling is required. The role has a strong focus on research at the interface between materials chemistry and chemical engineering and working with industrial sponsors and international collaborators (see http://ciccs.hw.ac.uk/).
The successful applicant will be part of the Centre for Innovation in Carbon Capture and Storage (CICCS) led by Prof Maroto-Valer at the Institute of Mechanical, Process and Energy Engineering. The Centre is an international, leading engineering centre, inspiring and delivering innovation for the wider deployment of carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) that is needed to meet necessary carbon dioxide targets.
Informal enquiries, may be made to Prof Mercedes Maroto-Valer (M.Maroto-Valer@hw.ac.uk) Tel: 0131-451-8028).
