Postdoctoral Researcher/Research Fellow – Critical Metals Position
3 weeks ago
About the Role
We are seeking a highly skilled Postdoctoral Researcher to join our team at Swinburne University in a critical metals research role. The successful candidate will collaborate closely with researchers from Swinburne University and CSIRO, as well as industry partners, to develop innovative green steel and critical metals research and development.
The project focuses on metallothermic reduction, a process that utilizes metals for extracting critical metals from ores or secondary resources without carbon emissions. This method is particularly advantageous for high-value metals sourced from secondary resources such as metal wastes, chips, and scraps.
The successful candidate will have a thorough knowledge of thermodynamic/kinetics modelling and hands-on experience with thermodynamic / thermochemical packages. They will also have a hands-on experience in high temperature experimentations (kinetics and equilibrium) and the ability to design and conduct independent research projects within a broader overall team environment.
Key Accountabilities:
- A thorough knowledge of thermodynamic/kinetics modelling and hands-on experience with thermodynamic / thermochemical packages
- A hands-on experience in high temperature experimentations (kinetics and equilibrium)
- Ability to design and conduct independent research projects within a broader overall team environment
- Demonstrated high standard of interpersonal and communication skills including the ability to work both independently and collaboratively in a multi-disciplinary environment
Qualifications:
- Doctoral qualification (or research experience) in Materials Science/Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Metallurgical Engineering or related areas
