Research Associate for Adsorptive CO2 Capture (CCU/CCS) with Doctoral Opportunity | Referentin / Referent (w/m/d) für Open Badges und Microcredentials in Teilzeit (50%)

Job Summary

This role involves working as a Research Associate at OTH Regensburg, focusing on developing innovative adsorptive methods for CO2 separation from flue gases in close collaboration with industrial partners. The successful candidate will conduct experimental investigations and perform reaction kinetic-thermodynamic modeling of complex adsorption and reaction behavior of trace impurities (NOx, SOx) on adsorbents. Key responsibilities include developing and applying analytical methods for material characterization, validating process models, coordinating research activities with industry, and presenting findings at conferences. The position requires a Master's degree in Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Process/Environmental/Energy Technology, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field, coupled with strong knowledge in adsorption, heterogeneous catalysis, and process modeling. This is a part-time (75%), fixed-term position until November 2028, offering the opportunity for doctoral studies.
