Postdoctoral researcher: Graphite from Renewable Aromatic Hydrocarbons Post-doc Researcher Postdoctoral researcher: Graphite from Renewable Aromatic Hydrocarbons A postdoctoral position is available in the Green Chemical Reaction Engineering group of Prof. Peter J. Deuss, where the postdoc is expected to characterize and convert isolated and purified carbon streams to mesophase carbon and graphitic materials for carbon fibre applications. Postdoctoral researcher: Graphite from Renewable Aromatic Hydrocarbons https://werkenbij.rug.nl/vacature/postdoctoral-researcher-graphite-from-renewable-aromatic-hydrocarbons-2452/ What are you going to do? Graphite is considered a critical material for Europe because it is essential for strategic clean-tech and multiple industrial applications, while Europe is highly dependent on imports with concentrated supply risks. The Graphene project is a partnership between BioBTX, Teijin Europe, ISPT, the university of Groningen and the Hanze University of Applied Science, which aims to develop and optimize the production of graphite from side-streams from the BioBTX Integrated Cascading Catalytic Pyrolysis process based on waste plastics. Expected: - Plan and execute experimental work based on the description above. - Communicate finding to the project team in written report form and via presentations at project meetings. - Participate in research activities within the research group, participating in general activities to keep the laboratory facilities running.
