We invite applicants for an industrial research position to develop, scale up and test a new class of polymeric hollow fiber membranes for application in the field of gas separation. The fibers will be fabricated a non-solvent-induced phase inversion process using spinning technology. The ultimate goal of this project is to validate the new technology in an industrial environment. Your responsibility is to develop and optimize the membrane and find the most cost-efficient fabrication method that allows production of larger quantities of defect-free hollow fiber membranes. After thoroughly characterizing and testing the performance of the developed membranes, you will scale up the technology to allow preparation of commercially sized modules that will be tested in a demo site of a potentially interested end-user. This new membrane platform will open up a wide range of applications. To achieve this, novel approaches have to be used that haven't been explored before.
Are you ready to contribute in developing a new generation of gas separation membranes?
