Project summary

  • visualizing and quantifying local pH gradients using Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging Microscopy (FLIM) to understand their influence on separation performance and membrane durability;
  • elucidating transport phenomena in membranes by integrating your experimental observations with advanced electrode characterization data generated within the consortium; and
  • developing membrane modification strategies to enhance performance, durability, and antifouling properties, thereby reducing energy demand as well as capital and operational costs for specific user-cases.
  • An MSc degree in Chemical Engineering, Process Engineering, Applied Physics, Physical Chemistry or a closely related discipline.
  • Hands-on experience with electrochemical systems and/or electrically driven separation technologies.
  • Knowledge of membrane processes, transport phenomena, advanced characterization techniques, such as fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM), and/or experience with 2D computational modeling.
  • Experience with designing custom-built experimental set-ups
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills in English, enabling you to thrive in an international and multidisciplinary research environment.
  • only abstract of your MSc thesis (or equivalent degree) in English;
  • copy of the MSc (or equivalent degree) diploma and its academic supplement (i.e. list of grades)
  • You can apply online. We will not process applications sent by email and/or post.
