Studiejob - Odense M
A three-year PhD position in phosphorus recovery from wastewater is available at the Department of Green Technology, University of Southern Denmark under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Action (MSCA) European Innovative Training Network RecaP (Capture, Recycling and Societal Management of Phosphorus in the Environment) within the Horizon 2020 Programme of the European Commission (Agreement No. 956454). The expected starting date is 1 September, 2021.
Project Background
In this PhD project we will investigate the crystallization of various P products from different P-rich stream scenarios from wastewater treatment plants, different P recovery processes based on crystallization and membrane separation will be developed. The configuration and key operation parameters of the process will be identified to enable a systematic optimization strategy to ensure the recovery of P product with the desired critical quality attributes. Strategies for selecting the optimal P products as well as the recovery process will be established based on the economy of the recovery process.
Job description
The PhD project will be carried out at University of Southern Denmark, and the PhD student will have secondment and research stay in collaborating institutes, such as Aalborg University, Wetsus and Krüger A/S.
