Location: GSMI, UM6P, Benguerir
Preferred start date: as soon as possible
Project Context As freshwater scarcity and environmental regulations increase, electrochemical separation technologies are gaining significant interest for sustainable seawater desalination.
This postdoctoral position is part of a research project aiming to design, optimize, and evaluate electrochemical systems [electrodialysis with bipolar membranes (BMED] for sustainable desalination brine treatment, at the crossroads of electrochemistry, membrane science, and environmental engineering.
Main Responsibilities
- Design and operate lab-scale BMED setups, including multi-compartment electrochemical cells.
- Test and characterize membranes: transport properties and selectivity.
- Monitor and analyze system performance: current efficiency, ion separation rates, energy consumption, etc.
- Model ion transport and system behavior under different operational conditions.
- Collaborate with researchers in diverse projects and contribute to scientific publications and project reporting
Candidate Profile
- PhD in electrochemistry, chemical engineering, materials science, or a related field.
- Hands-on experience with electrodialysis, electrochemical separation, or membrane processes.
- Strong knowledge of ion transport mechanisms and membrane behavior.
- Familiarity with analytical tools
- Skilled in setting up experimental systems and troubleshooting.
- Scientific rigor, teamwork ability, and good communication skills (English proficiency required; French optional but appreciated).
Position Details
- Contract: Full-time postdoc, 18-month fixed-term, renewable depending on project progress and funding.
- Facilities: Access to GSMI equipment and analytical platforms.
- Environment: Multidisciplinary lab, collaborative projects with academia and/or industry, opportunities for conference participation.
Application Procedure
Application must include:
- A detailed CV
- A cover letter highlighting relevant experience
- A list of publications
Contact information for 1–2 academic references
