Thesis (B/M): Site analyses for oxyfuel plants for CO2 capture
Vor 3 Tagen
In our Clean Combustion and Process Heat department, we deal with low-emission combustion processes and process heat. One of our topics is oxyfuel combustion, in which pure oxygen is used as the O2 source instead of normal ambient air. Oxyfuel combustion of biogenic gases enables efficient CO2 capture from flue gases, thereby providing potential CO2-negative process heat. Be part of change Application-oriented research in the field of oxyfuel combustion and CO2 capture Identification of suitable locations where an oxyfuel combustion plant can be implemented Conducting location analyses Preparation of energy and material balances Research work What you contribute must have: Degree in process engineering, energy technology, environmental technology, industrial engineering, mechanical engineering, or a comparable field of study Independent working style nice to have: Knowledge of German is an advantage, but not essential. A good command of English is sufficient for successful internal communication What we offer We are committed to creating an inspiring working environment in which all employees can develop. To this end, we promote and value the uniqueness of each person and create a culture of respect, openness and appreciation in which everyone is welcome: Teamwork at eye level: an open-minded team in which you can contribute your own ideas. New Work, diversity and inclusion as well as cooperative teamwork are central components of our culture. Theory meets practice: The opportunity to combine your knowledge from your studies with practical experience at the interface between business and science. Flex work: Your studies have priority - we offer you flexible working hours that adapt to your everyday study routine, as well as the opportunity to combine mobile working and on-site work by arrangement with the team. Health & well-being: Health offers for a good balance in everyday life. You can find even more attractive benefits here: The weekly working time is 39 hours. This position is also available on a part-time basis. We value and promote the diversity of our employees' skills and therefore welcome all applications – regardless of age, gender, nationality, ethnic and social origin, religion, ideology, disability, sexual orientation and identity.
