In regards to the place

We now have a emptiness for a PhD candidate place on the Division of Chemical Engineering.

The Division of Chemical Engineering covers all kinds of analysis areas together with biorefinery and fiber expertise, catalysis, colloid and polymer chemistry, environmental engineering and reactor expertise and course of methods engineering. The Environmental Engineering and Reactor Expertise group is the biggest group on the division with lengthy custom inside the analysis matter of CO2 seize from exhaust gases and pure fuel sweetening. The CO2 seize analysis consists of theoretical and experimental actions inside screening of recent absorbents, measurements and modeling of section equilibria, thermal properties, transport properties and kinetics, characterization of environmental impacts, and testing and validation in laboratory scale and in pilot vegetation. Additional details about the division is out there at: https://www.ntnu.edu/chemeng .

For a place as a PhD Candidate, the aim is a accomplished doctoral schooling as much as an obtained doctoral diploma.

The important thing aim of the PhD venture is to develop first-principle match for goal fashions of solvent-based post-combustion CO2 seize course of. The fashions developed as a part of this work might be used first to determine promising solvents and course of designs in an preliminary screening section and subsequently to design and optimize essentially the most promising choices in a extra detailed course of efficiency evaluation section.  The detailed efficiency evaluation of chosen solvent processes might be carried out for various {industry} eventualities that might be outlined as a part of the venture.

The PhD place is part of the ADVENCCS venture – Superior power restoration and CO2 seize methods for a decarbonized ferroalloy {industry}: https://www.sintef.no/en/tasks/2022/advenccs-advanced-energy-recovery-and-co2-capture-systems-for-a-decarbonised-ferroalloy-industry/ . The PhD analysis work might be undertaken in shut collaboration with SINTEF Power Analysis (SER) and in dialogue with the {industry} companions of ADVENCCS.

Duties of the place

The PhD analysis work will contain:

• modeling solvent primarily based post-combustion seize processes together with all related models
• digital screening of assorted solvents and course of designs and figuring out essentially the most promising alternate options
