The position requires a process systems engineer (chemical or mechanical engineering ) with knowledge on optimization and process modelling.

Project description: Improved process design and operation of chemical gas conversion process technologies. Process design include many activities and involve different professions, but in this context the main focus is on process synthesis, process analysis and evaluation. A good process design is very important for both economic performance and environmental loads. A systematic approach to process design, in focus here, exploit knowledge of the basic phenomena taking place and finds the process design that optimize an objective such as space time yield or similar objectives. An increased space time product yield in a reactor will either increase the production rate or reduce the size of equipment. Increased product yield will implicitly give less by-products. Both material and energy efficency are in focus. The systematic method in addition to other tools will be applied on processes for natural gas conversion in order to improve design and operation.

Application deadline: As soon as possible. Send email to Magne Hillestad, magne.hillestad@chemeng.ntnu.no
