Job Description
The position involves experimental and modelling research on hydrogen storage and transport using metal redox cycles. The role emphasizes hands-on work in a 100 kW pilot-scale experimental facility. Responsibilities include planning, executing, and analysing experiments related to cyclic oxidation and reduction of metals for hydrogen production and storage, developing dynamic process models using APROS, and studying the reuse of circulating fluidised bed boilers for hydrogen applications. You will analyze and document research results, contribute to scientific publications, and participate in conferences and research projects, with some travel involved.
