About the position
The Great Lakes Water Innovation Engine (Great Lakes ReNEW) is hiring 9 postdoctoral research fellows interested in working on the selective separation of nutrients, critical minerals, and energy from wastewater. This includes sensors and sensor networks for detection of these targets and testbeds for the validation of technologies developed. The research areas include sensors, nutrient recovery, emerging contaminants (e.g., PFAS), selective separations, and materials science. The postdoc appointment term is from Fall 2024 to February 2026, with potential for renewal.
Requirements
- PhD in a relevant field such as environmental science, materials science, or engineering.
- Experience in sensors, nutrient recovery, or selective separations.
Nice-to-haves
- Experience with emerging contaminants, particularly PFAS.
- Familiarity with testbed validation of technologies.
