Ph.D. Effect of nanoparticles in membrane filtration

Within the Membrane Science & Technology group (www.membrane.nl) we have a vacancy for a Ph.D. position on:

‘Effect of nanoparticles in membrane filtration

Because of the increasing use of nanoparticles, they are ending up more and more in the environment and in drinking water sources. Not much is known on the toxicity of nanoparticles, nor on the effectiveness of membrane filtration in removing them. This project makes and inventory of which nanoparticles are present in natural water, their removal efficiency at drinking and waste water plants, the fouling behavior of feed waters containing nanoparticles and the analysis of the particles.

We are looking for highly motivated and enthusiastic researchers with an MSc degree in chemistry, chemical engineering, material science or a related topic, with adequate experimental and theoretical skills.

We prefer candidates with a good team spirit, who like to work in an internationally oriented environment. Fluency in English is a requirement. An interview and a scientific presentation will be part of the selection procedure.

Interested candidates can send their motivation letter, CV (including references) and list of courses and grades to Dr. Antoine Kemperman (a.j.b.kemperman[ at ]utwente.nl; phone: +31 53 489 2956).

Ph.D. in Nature-inspired membranes

Within the Membrane Science & Technology group (www.membrane.nl) we have a vacancy for a Ph.D. position on:

‘Nature-inspired membranes’

Safe and sufficient water relies on reliable and efficient separation processes. Over the past decades, membrane separations have emerged as the most viable solution to problems such as virus retention, ion retention (desalination) and ion separation (softening). Membranes used in these processes are characterized by an amorphous porosity, broad pore size distribution and low membrane porosity. Even though limited by these morphological constraints, ingenious process schemes on extremely large scale make membrane technology the technology of choice. It is highly desirable to discover new fabrication methods of new membrane materials that overcome those limitations. Filtration with high porosity, thin and isoporous membranes will be the technical solution of choice for particulate matter such as viruses and nano-particles.

The aim of this project is the fabrication of bio-inspired nanoporous layers, for performing molecular separations such as desalination and disinfection. Two routes will be followed, the first aspires fabrication of supported isoporous 2D monolayer films, the second is directed at thin film enzyme activated composite membranes.

We are looking for highly motivated and enthusiastic researchers with an MSc degree in chemistry, chemical engineering, material science or a related topic, with adequate experimental and theoretical skills.

We prefer candidates with a good team spirit, who like to work in an internationally oriented environment. Fluency in English is a requirement. An interview and a scientific presentation will be part of the selection procedure.

Interested candidates can send their motivation letter, CV (including references) and list of courses and grades to Dr. Kitty Nijmeijer (d.c.nijmeijer[ at ]utwente.nl; phone: +31 53 489 4185)

PhD in ‘Novel Aerospace Materials’

PhD in Novel Aerospace Materials (Aerospace Engineering Department of Delft University of Technology in close collaboration with the Membrane Technology Group of the University of Twente)

Job description
Currently Delft University is collaborating with the Membrane Technology Group at the University of Twente (UTwente) on a project in which we explore novel, high-performance polymer architectures based on poly(ether-imide) and poly(ether-amide) chemistries as potential materials for high-pressure gas separation applications. In this project we will design and synthesise new monomers and polymers, investigate their thermo-mechanical properties and study their usefulness as films for a variety of gas separation applications (e.g. separation of CO2/CH4 and olefin/paraffin mixtures). You will not only be in charge of polymer synthesis and polymer characterisation but you will also assist with inventorying the membrane properties, which will be done in close collaboration with the UTwente.

Requirements
The candidate should have the following qualifications:
-An MSc degree, preferably in the field of organic chemistry or polymer synthetic chemistry

-Experience with polymer characterisation (DSC, TGA, DMTA, XRD, GPC) and polymer film processing techniques is a definite advantage.

-Good communication skills

Conditions of employment
TU Delft offers an attractive benefits package, including a flexible work week, free high-speed Internet access from home, and the option of assembling a customised compensation and benefits package (the ‘IKA’). Salary and benefits are in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities.

For more information about this position, please contact Prof. Theo Dingemans, phone: +31 (0)15-2785420, e-mail: t.j.dingemans[ at ]tudelft.nl. For general information regarding the application procedure, you are welcome to contact Ms. Jeannette de Jong, j.a.dejong[ at ]tudelft.nl.

To apply, please e-mail a detailed CV including an up-to-date list of publications and contact information for 3 references, along with a letter of application to Theo Dingemans, t.j.dingemans[ at ]tudelft.nl. When applying for this position, make sure to mention vacancy number LR10-01.
