Suverna Trivedi

Postdoctoral positions are open at the Department of Chemical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur. The group led by Assistant Professor Suverna Trivedi is recruiting 2 immediate postdoctoral researchers to work on catalysis-driven energy and environmental research. Research areas include Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) of NO using CH₄ and Biomass-to-Hydrogen via Aqueous Phase Reforming (APR) . These topics sit at the intersection of Chemical Engineering , Catalysis , Reaction Kinetics , Environmental Science , and Energy Materials . Ideal background : hands-on experience with fixed-bed catalytic reactor systems, strong understanding of reaction kinetics and mechanistic studies, expertise in catalyst design, synthesis, and characterization, and strong data analysis/interpretation skills. Why apply? The post highlights a well-established laboratory, strong funding support, international collaboration opportunities, and a collaborative environment open to new ideas and research directions. Application : interested candidates should email their CV and a brief description of research interests to [email protected] . The post also mentions that applicants who have already applied through institute channels and want to work with the group may reach out directly. Institution : Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, India.
