PhD position summary/title: Reannouncement: PhD Position in DigiBreak – Ethnographic Perspectives on Telecommunication Disruptions and Cyberattacks – Subproject Greenland

The PhD student is expected to contribute to DigiBreak by undertaking research in the Greenlandic case involving fieldwork in north and east Greenland(2 x 1,5 months). The aim of DigiBreak is to investigate ethnographically how people experience and manage digital infrastructure breakdowns, specifically telecommunication and cybersecurity breakdowns in Greenland and Denmark. Mobilizing literature from science and technology studies(STS), media studies and social anthropology, the project aims to redefine digital breakdowns as everyday“normal” occurrences rather than extraordinary crises. The DigiBreak project focuses on mundane resilience and adaptability strategies at infrastructural peripheries. Shifting attention to such mundane practices fosters an understanding of breakdown and infrastructural edges in highly digitised societies.

The PhD student is expected to conduct ethnographic research and engage with the research done in DigiBreak. In the application, candidates are encouraged to state their interests within the fields of science and technology studies, infrastructure studies, and arctic studies in the form of a brief project proposal(see below). The purpose is to demonstrate the candidate’s ability to pose relevant, original, and theoretically engaged questions within a specific focus area.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Stipend/Integrated PhD Stipend in Hydrogen Sulfide Scavenging

The PhD stipend is announced in connection to the INNO-H2S project funded by the Energy Technology Development and Demonstration Programme(EUDP) and led by Associate Professor Marco Maschietti(AAU). The project consortium comprises a strong team of industry partners(TotalEnergies Denmark, OKEA ASA, SLB, MMS Nordic) and an academic partner(DTU Offshore).  

In offshore oil and gas production, hydrogen sulfide(H2S) is removed from produced gas by direct injection of MEA-triazine(H2S scavenger) into the gas stream. This process leads to the generation of a wastewater, which unfortunately contains large amounts of unreacted MEA-triazine and is often discharged into the sea due to lack of feasible alternatives. The INNO-H2S project aims at demonstrating a technology based on nanofiltration for the recovery and re-use of unspent MEA-triazine. The INNO-H2S includes one research-based work package that is focused on understanding the conditions leading to losses of MEA-triazine and fouling due to MEA-triazine degradation by hydrolysis or other side-reactions.

The prospective PhD student will focus on the research-based work package of the INNO-H2S project by designing and executing laboratory experiments aimed at understanding the chemical equilibrium and kinetics of the hydrolysis of MEA-triazine and other side-reactions, and the conditions that may lead to dropout of solids and fouling in the H2S scavenging process. Modelling of chemical reaction kinetics and chemical processes will also be part of the work. The tasks will be carried out in close collaboration with academic researchers and industry specialists that will be working on the associated work packages of the INNO-H2S project.    

The prospective PhD student should have strong interest in chemical reaction engineering and industrial chemistry. Furthermore, he/she should be enthusiastic in envisioning the industrial application of the research results. As the position is part of a collaborative industry-academia research project, the candidate should show excellent interpersonal and communication skills and team spirit to solve problems together with different stakeholders.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Stipend/Integrated PhD Stipend In Computational Materials Chemistry

A PhD stipend or integrated PhD stipend in computational materials chemistry is available. Development of new sustainable energy materials, including materials for improved battery technologies, is required for our transition to a carbon neutral society. Computational materials chemistry allows us to accelerate the design and discovery of new materials, but often important effects of temperature and disorder are neglected.

The PhD project is part of the Villum Young Investigator project titled“Entropy in materials design: Accelerated discovery of disordered solid electrolytes”, which focuses on developing computational predictions of disordered crystalline materials and applying these to discover novel solid-state electrolytes for batteries. Thus, the prospective PhD student should have an interest in working in a collaborative team with a common focus on computational materials science.

This PhD project will focus on developing methods combining density functional theory calculations with machine learning to predict finite temperature stability of materials by including vibrational and substitutional disorder. In collaboration with other team members, these methods will be applied to design disordered solid electrolytes.

The PhD student will be part of the computational materials chemistry group led by Tenure-Track Assistant Professor, Kasper Tolborg, within the Section of Disordered Materials, which offers state-of-the-art computational and experimental infrastructure and facilitates a dynamic work environment and interdisciplinary collaborations.

PhD position summary/title: PhD stipend in Digitalization of recycling line for spent batteries from electric vehicles

The recycling of spent lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) from electric vehicles (EVs) becomes an urgent problem for the green transition. However, today, most European countries abandon the hydrometallurgical recycling approach, as it is not economically viable due to the high labor cost. Instead, a pyrometallurgical recycling approach is widely adopted, but this approach often leads to serious environmental problems. If manual labor can be partly replaced by digital technologies, the more environmentally friendly hydrometallurgical recycling approach is expected to be promoted in Europe. Thus, the focus of the PhD project is to develop a methodology to digitalize the recycling line of spent LIBs from EVs for a large-scale application, while integrating existing research. Specifically, the project will address four challenges towards the first several steps in LIB recycling process (i.e., collection, diagnosing, sorting, and disassembly):

  1. Information asymmetry between different stakeholders in the LIB recycling process;
  2. Non-standard battery design;
  3. No clear guidance about the development of battery passport;
  4. Highly manual battery recycling process, especially in terms of sorting, disassembling, and material separation.

(11) PhD Degree – Fully Funded

PhD position summary/title: PhD Stipend/Integrated PhD Stipend in Glass Electrolytes

A PhD stipend or Integrated PhD stipend is available in the area of glassy electrolytes for solid-state batteries. Development of safe lithium batteries with high energy density and long cycle life is critically needed for sustainable energy storage. The use of solid instead of liquid electrolytes offers a key step forward, but slow ion transport is the Archilles’ heel of solid electrolytes. The proposed project aims at addressing this problem by developing metal-organic framework(MOF) glass electrolytes, as these feature a nanoporous structure without grain boundaries.

Guided by atomistic simulations, we will elucidate which chemical modifications of the MOF glass structures are most effective in increasing ionic conductivity and reveal the relationship between porosity and ionic conductivity. We will use the developed MOF materials to construct coin cell batteries and visualize the structural changes in operando during charging/discharging using advanced x-ray diffraction. The aim is that these results will lead to design principles for making highly conductive solid electrolyte materials for batteries.

The prospective PhD student should have an interest in working in a multidisciplinary team and perform both experimental and computational materials science. The PhD project is part of the Independent Research Fund Denmark project“Designing Metal-Organic Framework Glasses for Solid-State Batteries,” which is headed by Professor Morten M. Smedskjær. The prospective PhD student will collaborate with other PhD students and Postdocs in the research group, who are working on related projects.

A relevant educational background within Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Condensed Matter Physics, Materials Science or similar is necessary. Excellent oral and written English language skills are a requirement. We seek a candidate with strong competences in materials science/chemistry, excellent analytical skills, and ideally some proficiency in Python(or equivalent). Experience with glass science, battery materials and/or structural characterization is highly advantageous.

All interested candidates are encouraged to apply, regardless of their personal background. We value diversity and see it as a strength.
