Research Projects Engineer in Novel Plasma Reactor Technology for CO2 Reduction

• Apply your technical expertise in plasma reactor technology into a varied role
• Work with an innovative team, using novel technology and creating real impact
• Great opportunity to grow your skills and experience with Australia’s National Science Agency

As Australia’s National Science Agency, our research teams at CSIRO are working hard to develop efficient and low-cost processes to add value to Australia’s large natural gas reserves, and there are number of research projects currently underway to achieve the best scientific outcomes. One of such innovative developments is the ‘Plasma Bubble Reactor Technology’, designed to use renewable energy for power generation and offering a promising future for energy carrier productions.

As a Research Projects Engineer in this domain, you will be joining our talented ‘Gas Process Engineering’ team in Melbourne, that invented this novel plasma technology. Bringing your technical expertise into the team, you will play a critical role in supporting various research project activities, particularly on plasma enhanced CO2 to methanol reactions. In this multi-faceted role, you will be involved in variety of activities such as rig configuration, reactor fabrication, catalyst synthesis, rig testing, results analysis, characterisation work, and more!

If you are motivated by experimentation and trying out different approaches, and contributing to making a real difference with your work, this would be an exciting and fulfilling role for you! CSIRO champions in providing a diverse and inclusive culture, supports flexible work arrangements, and offers you excellent professional development opportunities to grow your skills & career.
