Research Engineer in chemistry (catalytic oxidation for water treatment)

id="offer-description" class="ecl-u-type-heading-2 ecl-u-mt-none ecl-u-mb-l">Offer Description The successful candidate will contribute to the development of innovative catalytic materials for the degradation of organic contaminants in water. The main responsibilities include:. Designing and optimizing synthesis protocols for single-atom catalysts. Characterizing the synthesized materials using a range of physicochemical techniques (XRD, Raman spectroscopy, XPS, TEM/STEM, ICP-OES or ICP-MS, BET surface area analysis, UV-Vis spectroscopy, FTIR, TPD, HPLC, GC-MS, etc.). Investigating structure–property–activity relationships. Evaluating catalyst performance for the degradation of organic contaminants in aqueous media, including PFAS (particularly trifluoroacetic acid, TFA) and endocrine-disrupting compounds. Identifying degradation products and elucidating reaction mechanisms. Proposing improvements to catalyst formulations or reaction processes based on experimental results. Contributing to the dissemination of research findings through scientific publications and presentations. Where to apply E-mail [email protected].
