Duties
The project aims to develop innovative molecular catalysts for the electrochemical reduction of CO2 to value-added products such as methanol or ethylene. As such, the project contains a large amount of synthetic work to prepare the catalysts, and electrochemical studies to evaluate the catalysts’ performance. CO2 reduction products will be identified and quantified by chromatographic methods. Mechanistic details will be elucidated by spectroscopic techniques and isotope labelling experiments.
Requirements
The successful applicant will have a documented track record in all aspects of the project. These include a background in:
In addition, the following are required:
