Position Title: Postdoc on the OX-ZEO Process for Converting Biogas into Synthetic Fuel
Specialization Area in Education and Research: CBS
Multidisciplinary Profile Specializing in Catalytic Processes

Job Description:

The Chemical & Biochemical Sciences, Green Process Engineering (CBS) department at Mohammed VI Polytechnic University is seeking a Postdoc specializing in heterogeneous catalysis. The candidate's research activities will focus on developing bifunctional catalysts for converting biogas into high-value molecules. This position requires knowledge of material synthesis with controlled porosity and mixed oxides. The work will involve optimizing the synthesis process; experience with fixed-bed catalytic reactors, gas/solid, in continuous flow at high temperatures is preferred. Knowledge of gas-phase reaction product analysis using micro-GC and FTIR is also necessary. A general knowledge of material synthesis is required.

Main Responsibilities:

The successful candidate should be able to:

Design, develop, and validate an experimental catalytic measurement setup

Conduct conversion measurements at both laboratory and industrial scales

Synthesize and develop new catalytic materials

Characterize catalysts before and after reactions

Write reports and publications
