PhD Positions in Electrochemical Direct Air Capture and CO2 Conversion Technical University of Denmark in Denmark

CarbonLab at Aalborg University is seeking one or more PhD candidates to help advance Direct Air Capture (DAC) technologies. The project addresses the scientific and engineering challenges that remain before DAC can be deployed at very large scale, with a focus on developing energy-efficient, economically viable systems built on a deeper understanding of how materials, processes and system integration interact. The PhD work is linked to two research directions: developing process-aware methods f...

Engineering Hydrogen Net Zero CDT PhD project This fully funded doctoral project explores how multiscale electrochemistry can improve ammonia technologies at the intersection of food security and the energy transition. The research addresses challenges in sustainable fertiliser production while also investigating the role of ammonia in future clean energy systems. As part of the Engineering Hydrogen Net Zero Centre for Doctoral Training, the successful researcher will join a cohort-based program...

DTU Energy at the Technical University of Denmark invites applications for a two-year, full-time postdoctoral position in amorphous energy materials for next-generation batteries, based in Kgs. Lyngby, Denmark. The project investigates the synthesis, stability, and decomposition mechanisms of amorphous electrolyte and electrode materials for beyond-lithium-ion battery chemistries. The goal is to discover solution-processable materials that can enable improved next-generation batteries. Research ...

Postdoc in Creative Electrosynthesis Reactions at DTU Physics , Technical University of Denmark, in Kgs. Lyngby, Denmark . This postdoc is part of the CAPeX center and the SurfCat section at DTU Physics, with a strong focus on electrosynthesis , electrocatalysis , surface science , and catalyst development for sustainable energy technologies. The project is intentionally open-ended and seeks a candidate with an original idea for a new electrosynthesis reaction beyond the standard electrochemical...

Research focus: This three-year PhD project at DTU Energy investigates why solid oxide electrolysis cells (SOECs) gradually lose performance and how switching between electrolysis and fuel-cell modes can eliminate or reverse degradation. The research addresses a major challenge in producing hydrogen and other fuels from renewable electricity. The doctoral researcher will use operando transmission electron microscopy to observe degradation and recovery inside a working, miniaturised SOEC. Experim...
