A four-year PhD position is currently available under the supervision of Dr. Rosa Bulo and Prof. Bert Weckhuysen at the Debye Institute for Nanomaterials Science of Utrecht University in the Netherlands (http://www.inorganic-chemistry-and-catalysis.eu). The research is embedded in the Netherlands Center for Multiscale Catalytic Energy Conversion (MCEC). It has the wider research aim to understand and improve catalytic conversion processes of biomass-derived molecules. These molecules can be used as sustainable resources in the production of transportation fuels and of base chemicals for the manufacturing of consumer products. More specifically, the project will involve ab initio calculations and molecular dynamics simulations on zeolite catalysts for biomass conversion, with a focus on two main topics: 1) Elucidation of the degradation of zeolite materials in the presence of water, and 2) the structure and diffusion of acidic water inside the zeolite framework, in the presence and absence of biomass-relevant oxygenated compounds such as ethanol. The work will involve close collaboration with experimentalists. The candidate should hold a master degree in chemistry or physics, experience with molecular dynamics simulations, and an interest in heterogeneous catalysis. For further information, view http://www.mcec-researchcenter.nl/projects/acidic-water-in-zeolite-pores-multi-scale-modelling-of-water-active-site-interactions/ Interested candidates should send a motivation letter accompanied by a CV including a list of publications and the contact addresses of at least two academic references by email to Rosa Bulo (r.e.bulo@uu.nl).
