About this position

Two PhD positions are available at the Centre Eau Terre Environnement of the Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS) in Quebec, Canada, on the theme of modelling energy flows and processes for industrial heat recovery.

This project addresses the recovery and use of industrial waste heat, a major opportunity to improve industrial energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The work is motivated by the large quantity of rejected heat in Quebec’s industrial sector and by the need to identify the most appropriate recovery strategies among multiple technical, economic, geographical, and operational constraints.

There are two PhD opportunities. One focuses on developing a rigorous, simplified, and reusable methodology to represent energy processes and waste heat recovery technologies so they can be integrated into multi-energy system models. The second focuses on territorial energy analysis: characterizing energy flows, identifying and quantifying synergies among industrial stakeholders, and assessing the robustness of different waste heat recovery configurations.

The Port of Quebec City will be used as a case study to evaluate its potential development as an industrial energy hub. The project sits at the intersection of process engineering, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, and broader industrial energy systems analysis.

The position is based in Québec, Canada, and the application deadline is 31 December 2026. The posting states that a Master degree or equivalent in Engineering is required. No further details on funding, supervisor names, or language requirements are provided in the text supplied.
