Singapore NTU (Nanyang Technology University- Main Office-HR) Full time
Job Title: Research Fellow
The Asian School of the Environment (ASE) at Nanyang Technological University is an interdisciplinary school that aims to be a world leader in environmental research focused on Asian environmental challenges. The ASE integrates earth and environmental life science, ecology, engineering and technology, human ecology, humanities, and the social sciences to address key issues of the environment and sustainability.
We are currently recruiting two experienced Research Fellows to join the laboratory of Professor Simon Redfern at the Asian School of the Environment, Nanyang Technological University (NTU).
Research Fellow 1:
This position involves performing in situ and operando analysis of ash-derived sorbents and developing multi-scale reaction models to describe sorbent behaviour during carbon capture cycles.
The candidate will be expected to further increase the efficiency of the capture process by improving the sorbent formulation. This requires an in-depth understanding of the sorbent behaviour over CO2 uptake-regeneration cycles under various operating conditions, including those closely mimicking flue gas compositions from WtE plants and CCGT power plants.
Key Responsibilities:
  • Procure and commission an operando XRD system
  • Connect and operate the XRD system with existing lab infrastructure
  • Secure beamtimes to perform in situ and operando synchrotron experiments at high-end synchrotron facilities
  • Design and fabricate in situ and operando cells for performing synchrotron experiments
  • Perform in situ and operando synchrotron experiments at international synchrotron research facilities
  • Carry out ex situ studies of sorbent materials at NTU
  • Carry out kinetics measurements of CO2 capture and sorbent regeneration
  • Develop and validate multiscale reaction models describing the behaviour of sorbent materials under various operating conditions
Requirements:
  • PhD degree in materials science, materials chemistry or chemical engineering
  • Evidence of published output in relevant scientific literature
  • Basic understanding of the scientific principles behind the research activities
  • Attention to detail and procedures
  • Effective communication and report writing skills
  • Willingness to learn and develop new skills
Research Fellow 2:
This position involves working closely with the lead PI to build the experimental programme, maintain instruments and coordinate with the international community.
Key Responsibilities:
  • Develop laboratory experiments to synthesise and study materials at extreme temperatures, pressure and under controlled chemical environments
  • Prepare literature surveys to outline research / technology development in the field
  • Employ and develop experimental methods using high-temperature furnaces, one atmosphere gas-mixing furnaces, diamond anvil cells as well as piston cylinder apparatus
  • Characterisation and analysis methods will include FTIR and Raman spectroscopy, EPMA, electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and XAS, and allied techniques, using both in-house and international synchrotron and neutron sources
  • Participate in research program, including research experiments and data collection
  • Prepare reports and documentations for the research programs, and support data analysis
  • Assist in duties related to lab safety, documentation, training of student researchers and outreach
Requirements:
  • PhD degree in Materials Science, Materials Chemistry or Chemical Engineering
  • Proficiency in either Diamond Anvil Cell (DAC) high pressure experiments or Large Volume Press (LVP) high pressure experiments
  • Evidence of published output in relevant scientific literature
  • Basic understanding of the scientific principles behind the research activities
  • Attention to detail and procedures
  • Effective communication and report writing skills
  • Willingness to learn and develop new skills
ASE seeks a diverse and inclusive workforce and is committed to equality of opportunity. We welcome applications from all qualified individuals and recruit on the basis of merit, regardless of age, race, gender, religion, marital status and family responsibilities, or disability. Interested applicants should submit a CV and a statement of interests. Evaluation of application starts immediately until the position is filled.
We regret to inform that only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
