Postdoc: CO2 Impurity Phase & Flow Specialist

Delft; Delft; On-site; EUR 40,000 - 54,000; Full time

Job summary

TU Delft invites applications for a Postdoc position focusing on the phase and flow behavior of CO2 with impurities at high pressure. The project combines experimental measurements using a high-pressure VLE cell and a CO2 flow loop, in the Process and Energy Department of TU Delft's Faculty of Mechanical Engineering.

The successful candidate will investigate solubility of acidic components in CO2 under gaseous, liquid and supercritical conditions and contribute to advancing CCS technologies.

Qualifications

• PhD in applied physics, chemical engineering or mechanical engineering.
• Strong thermodynamics and/or fluid mechanics knowledge.
• Experience in high‑pressure phase equilibrium measurements and/or supercritical flow measurements.
• Strong collaboration and communication skills.
