Master in Engineering or in Sciences (preferably with a strong formation in (electro)chemistry, materials and physics)
The main role of the PhD student will be to design and build the electrodes, then to perform the complete physico-chemical and electrochemical characterization of the components (carbon supports and catalysts) as well as the final MEAs (on fuel cell test bench). The student will be in charge of the material/MEA preparation at every step, and will perform all analysis required to understand the impact of carbon modification on the mass transport, electron/ion transport, global performance and durability of the catalytic layer of the fuel cell. Within the Be-Hyfe project, the PhD student will also be involved in several activities aiming at developing a strong network between the project partners in Belgium and the other PhD students involved. This will include laboratories/company visits, workshops and technical/scientific discussions between partners.
Be-Hyfe project: This PhD position is part of the Energy Transition Fund project BE-HyFE which aims to establish a core group of 16 broadly trained and highly networked early-stage researchers who can support the Belgian industry in finding both technological and societal solutions to essential hydrogen challenges. The project offers you, next to an inspiring group dynamic with fellow researchers, a chance to establish specific hard and soft skills by means of a specialised training program (workshops, Hydrogen weeks, etc.), site visits to industry and (inter)national academic-industrial networking events. To encourage knowledge exchange and building the network, part of your PhD research will be performed in the Belgian knowledge institute of your co-promoter. • Student profile: Master in Engineering or in Sciences (preferably with a strong formation in (electro)chemistry, materials and physics)
