Post-doctoral position in the Laboratory of Intensification of Materials and Processes

The Laboratory of Intensification of Materials and Processes (IMAP) headed by Prof. Carlos A. Grande, is affiliated to the Advanced Membranes and Porous Materials (AMPM) Center and to the KAUST Catalysis Center (KCC). We work covers the landscape from scale-up and shaping of materials to the design and intensification of new processes and reactors. 

We are looking for a motivated individual with a strong background in computational fluid dynamics in chemical engineering. We have several projects that are associated to process modelling (in separation and catalysis) covering the fundamental aspects of process design, 3D printing and the process deployment for industrial implementation.

Benefits: 50-60kUSD/year (depending on experience) + housing and healthcare. Possibility of participating in industrially relevant projects in the area of sustainability.

Eligibility criteria: Most relevant CV and possibility to start in the expected period. We are an international and multi-cultural new group in kaust, so we accept applications of candidates from all over the world.

We are looking for a person with a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering or similar whose main expertise lay in the field of computational fluid dynamics.

Research Fields:

• Chemical engineering
• Computational physics
• Mathematical physics

Required Education Level: PhD

Skills/Qualifications: computational fluid dynamics

Required Languages: English

Required Research Experience: Ph.D. obtained after 2020. Other postdoctoral experience is not required.
