CO2 catalysis and capture : Zurich, Switzerland
A postdoc is sought to participate in a research project “From tailored CO2-sorbent to optimized CO2 electrochemical reduction catalyst” supported by the Competence Center of Energy and Mobility (CCEM). The postdoctoral position will focus on the development of new CO2 sorbents and catalysts and gaining further insights into the underlying reaction mechanisms. The research will be undertaken in the group of Prof. Christoph Müller (ESE, D-MAVT). The successful candidate will be responsible for the synthesis, characterization and testing of CO2 sorbents and catalysts as well as assist with scientific and technical reporting, and the presentation of results. Applicants for this position are expected to have a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, or Material Sciences. Experience in the field of heterogeneous catalysis, material synthesis and/or material characterization tools is a must. We are looking for highly motivated, committed, and creative individuals, able to work in a team and with good communication skills. Working in a top-level research environment with an advanced laboratory infrastructure, the candidate will have a unique opportunity to develop further their research abilities.
