Project : Development of high temperature electrolysers (HT-SOEC)
HT-SOEC project is a recently launched ambitious project to develop a first prototype of a solid oxide electrolyser for the production of green hydrogen in the kW range. The project is granted by MICINN (Programa Energía e Hidrógeno Verde) and different local Governments of Autonomous Spanish Regions. The Project partners are Universidad San Pablo-CEU (Madrid), Nanoscience and Materials Institute (Aragón), National Centre for Renewable Energies (Navarra) and, Universidad Complutense de Madrid (Madrid) .
We are looking up to one Predoctoral researcher with a Degree and Master in Chemistry, Materials Science or Engineering. The selected candidates will be integrated in the ESYMAT group at CEU San Pablo University ) being also involved in different tasks between all partners.
The researcher will undertake a thesis project for ca. 3 years that will include:
-Synthesis : Ceramic, precipitation, sol-gel, combustion, hydrothermal and microwave assisted hydrothermal.
-Structural characterization : X-ray diffraction, neutron diffraction and electron diffraction.
-Electrical and electrochemical characterization of SOFC and SOEC materials: ac impedance spectroscopy and dc methods.
The contract will be performed with Fundación Universitaria San Pablo CEU according with the standard salary for predoctoral researchers.
Please send your resumed CV including at least the names of two references and your degree qualification report. Deadline 20th November 2022
