INTRODUCTION:
The Department of Technology and Innovation, University of Southern Denmark in Odense (SDU), invites for applications to a three-year PhD position on the topic of Smart Manufacturing / Industry 4.0 for Power-to-X equipment (PtX) production. The starting time of the position is 1st January 2023 or as soon as possible thereafter, and the location is at SDU’s main campus in Odense.
WHAT WE OFFER:
There is a double urgency to transform Europe's energy system: ending the dependence on fossil fuels and tackling the climate crisis. Green PtX solutions are seen as a cornerstone of Europe’s green transition and as main building block for reaching carbon neutrality by 2050. The PhD candidate will work actively in the project “Green H2 and MeOH in DK - realizing cost leadership and scalability (GREMEOH)” funded by Innovation Fund Denmark’s InnoMission2 Partnership. The aim of the GREMEOH project is to bring Denmark and EU a step closer to leveling the cost of green hydrogen and methanol to fossil parity to serve a rapid increase in demand for these green fuels. The accelerate cost-efficient scaling of manufacturing and assembly of H2O-electrolysis and H2- and CO2-based methanol processing units is a key building block of the GREMEOH project.
The PhD project will focus on scaling up the smart manufacturing and assembly of green PtX production units, i.e., electrolysers for the green hydrogen production and H2- and CO2-based methanol processing units. For this purpose, the PhD project will address the following research activities:
The PhD candidate will...
This PhD position is fully funded.
WHAT WE EXPECT:
The successful candidate will conduct application-oriented research with a team of industry partners and equipment vendors in the PtX production sector. The desired candidate should hold a MSc degree in Operations Management, Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing, Systems Engineering, Engineering Management, or equivalent (equivalent to a Danish master's degree) and should demonstrate:
Familiarity with or dedicated interest in exploring the domain of green PtX as well as experience with creating qualitative and/or quantitative models in business / industrial settings will be considered as an advantage.
WORKPLACE DESCRIPTION:
SDU offers an interdisciplinary research environment with other PhD students and where research programs are developed in close collaboration with industry. The department contributes to the sustainable development within the focus area of manufacturing, circular economy, and industrial and supply chain engineering management.
The Department of Technology and Innovation is located at SDU’s main campus in Odense. As the 3rd largest city in Denmark, Odense provides the perfect combination of a historic city center with an urban field yet a close proximity to beaches and recreational areas. Its location on the beautiful island of Funen is ideal with easy access by train or highway to the bigger cities of Aarhus and Copenhagen; direct trains can take you straight to Copenhagen airport in less than 2 hours. Since 1966 the city has been a university town, and strong collaborative ties are in place between the University of Southern Denmark and the many Danish and International corporations in the region. As the birthplace of Hans Christian Andersen, Denmark’s famous fairytale author, the city is home to a vibrant and creative population that hosts numerous festivals and markets throughout the year.
