Ph.D. student (w/m/d) for the ThermIon project part time 75%
Assessment of resource and potentials of extracting raw materials from geothermal brines in the Upper Rhine Graben

**Organisationseinheit**:
Institut für Angewandte Geowissenschaften (AGW)

**Ihre Aufgaben**:
Raw materials are crucial to Europe’s economy, forming a strong base for a wide range of technologies used in everyday life. Reliable and unhindered access to certain often critical raw materials is an increasing concern in the EU and globally. Recently, geothermal brines have emerged as a possible resource for raw material extraction. Key questions in this field include the potential and sustainability of these extraction processes.

This research will initially assess the potential raw materials in the Upper Rhine Graben and evaluate possible extraction technologies in close collaboration with industry partners. If viable materials and processes are identified, the next step will involve (geochemical) experimental analysis, leaching experiments from reservoir samples and quantification of mass transfer rates. Finally, the gathered data will be used to develop a thermo-hydraulic-chemical reservoir model to quantify the impact of the extraction processes and predict the applicability and sustainability of raw material extraction from geothermal brines.

**Eintrittstermin**:
1. October 2024
