A PhD scholarship is available in Bioenergy group at Department of Environmental Engineering, Technical University of Denmark within the project “Innovative bio-electrochemical- anaerobic-digestion coupled system for ammonia recovery and energy production from ammonia-rich residues” funded by the Danish Council for Independent Research, Technology and Production Sciences.
The candidate will participate in a newly granted project, which aims to develop an innovative process integrating bio-electrochemical system with anaerobic digestion to recover ammonia and thereby enhance bio-methanation of ammonia-rich residues. In this process, ammonia recovery and energy production will be realized in a bio-electrochemical system. Moreover, removal of ammonia from anaerobic reactor will alleviate or counteract ammonia inhibition and enhance the conversion of ammonia-rich wastes to biogas, giving synergistic advantages for both ammonia recycling and increase of biogas production.The candidate will perform a thorough study to optimize system performance, address potential limitations, and to find corresponding technical solutions.
Candidates must have obtained a master's (MSc) degree in engineering/science or a similar degree with an academic level equivalent to the master's degree in engineering/science. A high motivation for research and solid written and oral communication skills in English are prerequisites of any successful application.
The successful candidate should have a strong background in bio-electrochemistry, systems biology, biotechnology and bioengineering, microbiology/metabolic engineering, chemical or biochemical engineering. Strong skills in electrochemistry analysis and experience with laboratory work are required. Moreover, previous high level publications in relevant area will be an advantage.
Apply no later than 31 March 2014
