Beschreibung

TUD Dresden University of Technology, as a University of Excellence, is one of the leading and most
dynamic research institutions in the country. Founded in 1828, today it is a globally oriented,
regionally anchored top university as it focuses on the grand challenges of the 21st century. It
develops innovative solutions for the world's most pressing issues. In research and academic
programs, the university unites the natural and engineering sciences with the humanities, social
sciences and medicine. This wide range of disciplines is a special feature, facilitating interdisciplinarity
and transfer of science to society. As a modern employer, it offers attractive working conditions to all
employees in teaching, research, technology and administration. The goal is to promote and develop
their individual abilities while empowering everyone to reach their full potential. TUD embodies a
university culture that is characterized by cosmopolitanism, mutual appreciation, thriving innovation
and active participation. For TUD diversity is an essential feature and a quality criterion of an excellent
university. Accordingly, we welcome all applicants who would like to commit themselves, their
achievements and productivity to the success of the whole institution.

At the
Faculty of Mechanical Science and Engineering, Institute of Process Engineering and
availability of resources, a position as

Research Associate / PhD Student (M/F/x)***starting
August
01, 2024._ _The position is limited to 3 years and comprises 75% of the full-time weekly
hours. The period of employment is governed by the Fixed Term Research Contracts Act
(Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz - WissZeitVG). The position offers the chance to obtain further
academic qualification (usually PhD thesis).

Tasks:
In the joint EFRE InfraProNet project "SmartPaste," we aim to advance a technology that
develop effective reactor concepts, it is crucial to thoroughly determine and describe the reaction
kinetics. In particular, operating conditions must be identified where maximum hydrogen formation
rates can be achieved with a mínimal spectrum of by-products, and efficient heat removal is ensured.
The project involves creating dynamic reactor models that account for side reactions, diffusion,
passivation effects, and the precipitation of metal salts. Additionally, tasks include developing and
optimizing chromatographic and other analytical methods to evaluate the reaction system. Effective
collaboration within the team and with project partners is essential. The PhD project also requires the
presentation of research findings in journals and at conferences.

Requirements:
a very good university degree, preferably in a natural science, ideally in chemistry,
technical chemistry, or chemical engineering; advanced knowledge in instrumental analytical
chemistry, especially chromatography and common coupling methods; interest in engineering
- related issues; creativity and self-motivation; interest in new forms of teamwork and knowledge
transfer to students; a personality skilled in communication and presentation, who works
independently, systematically, and confidently. Profound reaction engineering knowledge and skills
in process modeling and data analysis/programming (e.g., MATLAB, Python) are an advantage.

For more information call:
TUD strives to employ more women in academia and research. We therefore expressly encourage
women to apply. The University is a certified family-friendly university and offers a Dual Career
