This position is for a project assistant performing experiments or simulations in projects that have the main objective to reduce the CO2 footprint of important chemicals and products. This will be done by catalyst research. This position will enable combining catalysis research with a close collaboration with industry. Information about the division The project assistant position is at the Chemical Engineering division at the Chemistry and Chemical Engineering department at Chalmers. We have a wide range of experience and work both experimentally and with modeling. We have a long tradition of working with both fundamental scientific questions and applied problems together with industry. This position is within the unit for Chemical Process and Reaction Engineering. In addition, the position will be included in the Competence Centre for Catalysis (KCK).   Job description There are two different types of projects we need a project assistant in: * Experimental studies, including catalyst synthesis and high pressure reactor experiments. * Aspen simulations for process economy Contract terms Temporary full-time employment for a duration of 4-6 months. Qualifications M.Sc. in Chemical Engineering and experience in experimental work, for example during Master thesis, is required.
