(01) Postdoctoral Fellowship Position

Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title:  Postdoc in Circular manufacturing

The PostDoc is part of a large research project on Circular Manufacturing, funded by the Danish Industry Foundation. The project aims to establish a national lab-based testbed on circular manufacturing, creating multiple demonstrators on how technologies aid in operationalizing circular manufacturing. This includes e.g. developing effective methods for managing End-of-Life (EOL) products, decision-making models for recovering, refurbishing, and reusing components from returned products, creating product and component traceability, effective disassembly processes, material grading, and automatization of remanufacturing processes. The project will work closely with several industrial partners to develop operational solutions and real-world impact.  

The work will commence in collaboration with a dedicated team of experienced researchers, lab engineers, and PhD students associated with the project, and in collaboration with researchers at partner university and a private company facilitating innovation activities.

Deadline : 01.07.2025

(04) Postdoctoral Fellowship Position

Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Postdoc in microbial polyolefins bio-upcycling

The Postdoc position will focus on scaling up microbial processes for the bio-upcycling of polyolefins, as part of a novel Horizon Europe Innovation Action project dedicated to the bio-upcycling of plastic waste. The project involves 19 partners from all over Europe and will develop scalable bioprocesses for the recycling of mixed plastic waste and multilayers, by integrating microbial and chemo-enzymatic depolymerization, following a biorefinery approach. Through eco-design we will develop new eco-polymers that are easier to recycle, thus contributing to a more sustainable plastic sector. We have already tested the best technology at TRL 6 and will now proceed with further optimization and scale-up. 
You will be developing and scaling up mixed culture technology to obtain robust Microbial Mixed Cultures and Designed Mixed Consortia for the degradation and bio-upcycling of PE and PP. Adaptive laboratory evolution will be used to increase substrate tolerance and reduce product inhibition. Particular focus will be in optimizing and scaling up the emulsification and oxidizing protocols of polyolefin pyrolysis wax, as well as the proper control of an optimal oxygen transfer rate within the bioreactor. Moreover, statistical optimization and process intensification with advanced bioreactor feeding strategies will be applied to maximize the bioconversion of the polyolefins into higher value compounds.
You are expected to have practical experience with various advanced polyolefins’ pretreatment methods (advanced chemical oxidation, UVc, ozone, plasma treatment, etc.), which will be used to improve degradability of the substrate. We expect you to run advanced analytical methods (NMR, GC, MS, DSC, FTIR, SEM, etc.) to study and characterize the biodegradation pathways and quantify product formation. Expertise in working with different bioreactor set-ups (CSTR, FB, etc.) is also required.
You will be scaling up the optimized process to 20L bioreactor and support the further tech transfer towards higher scale.

Deadline :  06.06.2025

(05) Postdoctoral Fellowship Position

Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Researcher in enzymatic plastic depolymerization

The Researcher position will focus on scaling up processes for the enzymatic depolymerization of polyesters, as part of a novel Horizon Europe Innovation Action project dedicated to the bio-upcycling of plastic waste. The project involves 19 partners from all over Europe and will develop scalable bioprocesses for the recycling of mixed plastic waste and multilayers, by integrating microbial and chemo-enzymatic depolymerization, following a biorefinery approach. Through eco-design we will develop new eco-polymers that are easier to recycle, thus contributing to a more sustainable plastic sector. We have already tested the best technology at TRL 6 and will now proceed with further optimization and scale-up. 
You will be developing and scaling up a robust expression and secretion platform to test large amounts of enzymes. You will be applying protein/genetic engineering to increase the activity and expression levels of polyester hydrolases, which will be expressed and secreted, both in E.coli and Pichia pastoris. You will also test the effect of enzyme immobilization, using different hydrophobic binding domains and MOFs. A postdoc will also be hired in the AAU Team, to develop microbial bioupcycling processes.
You are expected to have practical experience with various molecular biology and protein engineering techniques, including the use of bioinfomatic tools. We expect you to run controlled experiments for plastic depolymerization (quantified by HPLC, NMR, DSC, and enzymatic assays), site-directed mutagenesis, transformation and cloning, lab-scale enzyme purification, enzyme immobilization tests, characterization of enzyme activity, etc.
Expertise on running bioreactors, as well as documented skills in scientific dissemination of results are also required.
Limited teaching within your area can be expected, in the form of student supervision.
