The Department of Bioscience Engineering in the Faculty of Science is looking for a full-time doctoral scholarship holder in the field of combined air purification technologies
Position
- You work actively on the preparation of a PhD thesis in the field of combined air purification technologies. Air cleaning technologies are typically efficient against one type of pollutant. Consequently, it is interesting to combine different techniques in one system to remove a broad range of pollutants in one operation. In this framework, we intend to investigate the combination electrostatic precipitation (ESP) / photocatalysis.
- More specific, a test facility is being built in which both technologies can be thoroughly tested. In addition, a multiphysics model will be developed for the combined technology, including submodels for all relevant phenomena. Based on correlation of model results and experiments, a thorough parameter analysis is performed to gain a full understanding into the interaction between both technologies.
- You publish scientific articles related to the research project.
- You carry out a limited number of teaching and research support tasks for the research group Sustainable Energy, Air and Water Technology.
- You compete for a doctoral grant in the field of combined air purification technologies
Profile
- You hold a Master degree in bioscience engineering, chemical engineering (catalysis) or environmental engineering, or you will have obtained it by the time you start working.
- You can demonstrate excellent study results.
- Your teaching competences are in line with the University of Antwerp’s educational vision .
- Your research qualities are in line with the faculty and university research policies .
- You act with attention to quality, integrity, creativity and cooperation.
- You can preferably demonstrate interest in computational modelling
What we offer
- We offer a doctoral scholarship for a period of one year. During this period you compete for an external doctoral grant under the supervision of the promoters of the research project.
- The planned start date is 1 January 2023 or as soon as possible after that date.
- Your monthly scholarship amount is calculated according to the scholarship amounts for doctoral scholarship holders on the pay scales for contract research staff (Dutch: Bijzonder Academisch Personeel, BAP).
- You will do most of your work at Groenenborger campus in a dynamic and stimulating working environment.
