About this position
IMT Mines Albi is offering a 12-month postdoctoral position focused on pilot-scale gasification trials in France. The successful candidate will join a multidisciplinary team of engineers, technicians, and faculty working on thermal processes for the valorisation of biomass and waste.
The research is centred on a 100-kW pilot-scale downdraft gasification unit. The main objective is to adapt the biomass gasification system so that it can operate in a nitrogen-free atmosphere. This is a critical step toward converting synthesis gas into storable fuels such as biomethane and sustainable liquid fuels for aviation (SAF) or maritime applications.
The postdoctoral researcher will contribute to final modifications of the pilot unit, including the injection of a nitrogen-free atmosphere made from O2, H2O, and CO2. The role also includes conducting experimental work on the gasification unit, performing the analyses needed to characterise products and process performance, and contributing to project meetings and scientific publications.
This is a full-time temporary postdoc opportunity based at IMT Mines Albi in Albi, Tarn, France. Applicants must hold a PhD or equivalent. The post is especially suited to researchers interested in thermal conversion, gasification, biomass and waste valorisation, process experimentation, and fuel-production pathways from synthesis gas.
The application deadline is 20 September 2026. Applications should be submitted through the official recruitment website provided in the posting.
Funding details
Full funding including tuition fees and living expenses is available for this position. The scholarship covers all educational costs and provides a monthly stipend.
How to apply
