About this position
This postdoctoral project is part of the CH₂EESE collaboration and focuses on the social-scientific study of an innovative process for valorising dairy effluents into green hydrogen and other high-value molecules. The recruited researcher will contribute to a milieux-oriented design approach, helping to shape the development of the technology by studying how it may fit within the agricultural, industrial, territorial and energy contexts in which it could be deployed.
The work is rooted in science and technology studies and combines ethnographic inquiry with territorial analysis. The successful candidate will investigate the actors and practices of the dairy and energy sectors, examine how effluent management and hydrogen-related activities are organised in the Pays de la Loire region, and identify the social, economic and environmental conditions that could influence the technology’s integration.
The position is closely connected to the project team and to researchers supporting the work in Nantes, Beauvais and Sevenans. The postholder will work mainly in Nantes and the Pays de la Loire region, with travel to Beauvais to collaborate with Nicolas Brault and colleagues. The post will also benefit from the support of Nicolas Simoncini, a lecturer in sociology and the history of hydrogen and energy at UTBM, alongside the daily support of Clément Maheu and regular support from Nicolas Brault.
The research setting is interdisciplinary, linking humanities and social sciences with materials science, chemistry and process engineering. The postdoctoral researcher will contribute evidence from fieldwork and documentary analysis to inform the consortium’s scientific and technical choices, with particular attention to how the innovation interacts with real-world territorial and sectoral conditions.
The project examines the place of a novel dairy-effluent-to-hydrogen technology within the environments where it may eventually be adopted.
