The research project is dedicated to heterogeneous catalysis and carried out by multi-disciplinary teams. The work consists of evaluation of catalysts for synthesis gas conversion and corresponding kinetic studies. Catalytic and kinetic experiments are carried out using parallel testing units. The obtained experimental data will be used to propose, formulate and test kinetic models and are relevant to find physico-chemical correlations between material properties and catalytical behavior. The derived models will be used for the design of larger catalytic reactors. The opportunity to obtain a PhD degree might be given.
Successfully completed university degree (Master, Diplom or equivalent) in chemistry, chemical or process engineering with above-average success. You have expertise in industrial chemistry and an in-depth understanding of heterogeneous catalysis, preferably in catalytic synthesis gas conversion at high-pressure conditions. Practical experience in planning and conducting catalytic and kinetic tests is expected. Practical experience in kinetic modeling and process simulation is helpful. Fluency in German and English is considered as a plus.
