We expect the holder of the professorship to make engineering contributions to fundamental issues of water quality, water treatment and water recycling in both industrial and municipal contexts. Possible research focuses are the provision of water with the necessary quality for the fields of drinking water supply, the process industry and the energy industry (including hydrogen production).

Furthermore, the development of reactor concepts for hybrid mechanical/biological processes for the treatment of aqueous process streams is to be addressed.

The institute's staff, resources, and equipment form an excellent basis for the future research of this university professorship in the above-mentioned key topics and other current areas of water chemistry and water technology. The expertise as well as the equipment available at the institute with regard to analytical imaging and trace substance analysis are to be utilized and further developed for addressing issues and new processes in water treatment (e.g. biofouling in membrane processes, use of biofilm reactors or bioelectrochemical systems).

A special feature of this professorship is the potential integration with the “DVGW Research Center at the Engler-Bunte Institute of KIT”, which opens up a wide range of opportunities for scientific and technical cooperation.

You will execute university tasks with a teaching obligation of 9 hours per week per semester.

The teaching duties include courses taught in German and English for the bachelor's and master's degree programs in Chemical Engineering and Process Engineering as well as Bioengineering. In particular, the bachelor's compulsory module “General Chemistry and Chemistry in Aqueous Solutions” and the bachelor's profile subject “Water Quality and Process Engineering for Water/Wastewater Treatment” are required to be taken over and further developed.

In the master's program, contributions are expected also in English on the specialization subjects “Water Technology” and “Environmental Process Engineering” as well as on the international degree program “Water Science and Engineering”.
