Motivation/Background

Description of Work

The focus of this research lies in the elementary-step mechanism of CH4, ammonia and formaldehyde oxidation over noble metal-based catalysts (Pt/Pd).

Of particular interest is the effect of the dynamic structural changes as a function of reaction conditions and reacting atmosphere on the activity of the active site(s), i.e.

the kinetics.

For the goal to be achieved, (newly) developed DFT-based microkinetic models are implemented in a dynamic model which accounts for various nanoparticle sizes/shapes.

The dynamic model(s) will be coupled with numerical simulations tool to allow simulations of different reactor scales (lab scale reactors to full scale catalytic converters).

Eintrittstermin:

as soon as possible

Ihre Qualifikation:

You must have an excellent university degree (Master) in chemistry or chemical engineering or a doctorate degree in those fields.
A profound knowledge and experience in the field of (micro) kinetic modeling of catalytic reactions, numerical simulation and programming (e.g. Python) are required.
In addition, good knowledge of the English language in word and writing are expected.
Good German language skills are beneficial.
Besides the professional qualification, strong commitment, team spirit, independent and selfresponsible working is requested.

Salary:

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

Contract duration:

befristet
