PhD Candidate Adsorbent Materials for PFAS Analysis 100 %

Your role

As part of this interdisciplinary PhD project, you will develop novel adsorbent materials for the selective enrichment of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and evaluate their application in advanced analytical workflows.

You will:

• Design, synthesize and characterize innovative fluorophilic adsorbent materials.
• Investigate adsorption mechanisms and structure-property relationships governing PFAS selectivity.
• Evaluate adsorption capacity, selectivity and mass-transfer characteristics of newly developed materials.
• Publish your findings in international peer-reviewed journals and present your research at scientific conferences.
• Collaborate with academic and industrial partners within the project.

Your profile

You hold a Master's degree in Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, Materials Science, Polymer Science, Environmental Chemistry, Chemical Engineering or a related field and are motivated to contribute to innovative environmental research.

You also bring:

• A strong interest in materials development, adsorption processes and analytical chemistry.
• Enthusiasm for experimental laboratory work and scientific problem solving.
• The ability to work independently while contributing to a collaborative international research team.
• Excellent written and spoken English skills.
