丹麦科技大学仿生膜技术博士后职位
The Water Technology section studies the sustainable treatment of water for domestic, industrial as well as agricultural use. Our work includes dealing with processes and technologies across the continuum from raw water, to potable water, to wastewater, to storm water. Recovery of resource from used water as well as reuse of water are considered. Both computational and experimental studies are conducted and research is done at the lab, pilot, and full scale, and in collaboration with other research institutes, stake holders, or end users.
The biomimetic group works on understanding membrane processes for water treatment including the use of hydraulic, osmotic or electro-chemical gradients across semipermeable membranes. Our particular focus is on new membrane designs, materials and operations.
