• Conducting corresponding kinetic studies using high-pressure and high-temperature single autoclave units as well as parallel testing units
• Preparing and evaluating various solid catalysts for the chemical recycling of plastic waste (pure and mixed plastic waste)
• Detailed characterization of fresh and used catalysts

The obtained data will be used to identify correlations between physio-chemical properties of catalysts and their catalytic performance. Additionally, data will be shared with team members and project partners for kinetic modeling and the subsequent transition from lab-scale processes to larger-scale applications.

• Successfully completed university degree (diploma, master's degree or equivalent) in chemistry or chemical engineering with above-average academic performance

Mandatory qualifications:

• Experience in catalytic testing (preferably in a parallel testing unit)
• Alternatively: experience in kinetic modeling
• Good knowledge of German and/or English required; willingness to acquire the respective missing language skills

Disirable qualifications:

• Experience in preparation and characterizing inorganic materials (solid catalysts)
• Detailed knowledge in polymer/product analysis, such as GCMS-FID, simulated distillation, 2DGG, GPC, and DSC

Applications should include the reference number and the appropriate documents (e.g., cover letter, CV, copy of the certificates of your Diplom / Master, a summary of your M.Sc. Thesis, and a publication record if applicable). Please send your complete application in one single pdf file via E-Mail to Dr. Al-Naji (contact@bascat.tu-berlin.de).
