We are looking for a Research Fellow for zeolite synthesis and application. The role will focus on zeolite materials synthesis, catalyst preparation, performance evaluation, and mechanistic understanding via detailed characterizations.

Key Responsibilities:

• Hydrothermal and solvothermal synthesis of zeolites, catalyst loading and modification techniques such as impregnation and ion exchange.
• Design formulations and optimize processes for zeolite-based catalysts, including control of crystallization conditions, screening of structure-directing agents, and post-treatment processes.
• Set up and maintain catalyst performance evaluation systems, including fixed-bed and batch reactors.
• Systematically assess catalyst activity, selectivity, and stability in target thermal catalytic reactions, such as hydrogenation, dehydrogenation, hydrodeoxygenation, and isomerization.
Catalyst Characterization

Job Requirements:

• PhD qualification degree in chemistry, chemical engineering, materials chemistry or related field
• At least 2 years of relevant experiences in zeolite synthesis and related catalyst development and hands-on experience running thermal reactions.
• Familiarity with GC, HPLC and materials characterization methods
Good communication skills
