Purpose of Role

.

We are looking for a creative and highly motivated researcher willing to work as part of our international and multidisciplinary team and with expertise to support our research activities in the engineering of optimal porous materials for CO2 capture applications via a data-driven and system-based approach (AI4Capture). This position is an exciting opportunity to contribute to our efforts on designing novel materials that are tailored for the most economical carbon capture process. The project will involve the design of adsorption-based processes that can be used for screening of materials and their integration into our techno-economic PrISMa platform (Charalambous, C., Moubarak, E., Schilling, J. et al. A holistic platform for accelerating sorbent-based carbon capture. Nature 632, 89–94 (2024), with the ultimate aim of identifying top performing materials for specific carbon capture applications.

The primary objectives of the research a...
