Karlsruhe, Deutschland Karlsruher Institut für Technologie Vollzeit

Job description

The main tasks include:

Testing and extensive spectroscopic characterization of existing and new catalyst systems for the direct synthesis of hydrogen peroxide from hydrogen and oxygen as part of the HyPerCat research group. Nanoparticle based catalyst systems will be prepared, thoroughly tested and characterized (e.g. with XRD, BET, IR, EXAFS, SAXS, etc.). Reaction / measurement cells and test setups will be developed and built. Operando techniques based on X-ray spectroscopy / scattering and infrared spectroscopy will be applied for knowledge-based catalyst development. The overall aim is to develop structure-activity correlations in order to determine the reaction mechanism of the direct synthesis of hydrogen peroxide. The results will be published in form of articles in scientific journals and presented at conferences.

We offer the opportunity for a part-time doctoral thesis.

Starting date

01.12.2024

Personal qualification

We require:

a university degree (Master / Diploma (Uni)) in Chemistry, Material Science, Physics or Chemical Engineering knowledge of general chemistry, physics, material science, physical chemistry, heterogeneous catalysis and spectroscopy fluent English

Desirable:

experience with design and construction of catalytic test setups and measurement cells experience with X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), infrared spectroscopy (ATR-IR, DRIFTS), and programming in Python knowledge of chemical engineering

Salary

Salary category 13, depending on the fulfillment of professional and personal requirements.
