Postdoc in Modelling and Optimization of Carbon Capture Processes - DTU Chemical Engineering
Kgs. Lyngby, Denmark
Job Description

Centre for Energy Resources Engineering (CERE) at DTU Chemical Engineering is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to contribute to our CO2 capture research in the project “Optimizing carbon capture simulation through advanced modelling tools—CapSim.” 
This project aims to improve CO2 capture simulation technology by apply state‐of‐the‐art techniques for evaluation of uncertainties in process modelling, experimental data, model parameters and modelling approaches in order to optimize design, analysis and operation of complete capture processes. The goal of the project is to develop accurate, robust software tools to be used in process simulators for standard and novel carbon capture processes. We aim to improve the robustness and efficiency of CO2 capture simulation for classical amine‐based aqueous solvents as well as other solvents such as chilled ammonia, potassium carbonate solutions, demixing (phase‐change) solvents, non‐aqueous solvents, ionic liquids and others. 
The CERE group at DTU Chemical Engineering possesses extensive expertise in both experimental measurement and modelling of phase equilibrium and thermodynamic properties. The project is supported by a consortium of industrial partners, ensuring that the high-level research remains relevant and applicable in real-world contexts.
Qualifications
As a formal qualification, you must hold a PhD degree (or equivalent). We are seeking candidates who have the following skills:

• Phase equilibrium calculation algorithms and their integration into CO2 capture simulation
• Thermodynamic modeling of phase equilibrium and thermophysical properties related to CO2 capture simulation.

Candidates should possess strong programming skills and be familiar with thermodynamics and process simulation.
We offer
DTU is a leading technical university globally recognized for the excellence of its research, education, innovation and scientific advice. We offer a rewarding and challenging job in an international environment. We strive for academic excellence in an environment characterized by collegial respect and academic freedom tempered by responsibility. 
Salary and terms of employment 
The appointment will be based on the collective agreement with the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations. The allowance will be agreed upon with the relevant union.
The period of employment is 2 years. Expected starting date: 1 May 2024 (or according to mutual agreement). The position is a full-time position.
