The opportunity....

PFAS (Per/Poly fluorinated alkyl substances) represent a large family of toxic and persistent environmental pollutants which number over different compounds. Over the past few years they have garnered much attention both in academic circles and more broadly the mainstream media owed to their high toxicity and ubiquitous presence in drinking water. It is imperative that real effort is made to remove PFAS from drinking water to protect environmental and human health. We are seeking a motivated and talented intern to join the Product Development team to support the development of Puraffinity's new adsorbent media concepts to remove PFAS from various water matrices. The intern will have the opportunity to engage in the synthesis and testing of novel materials utilising a variety of chemical approaches. Given that the product development team work very closely with the engineering department, you will be exposed to all aspects of material testing and gain insight into the work undertaken to get a material ready to go to market.
Key Responsibilities: Conducting synthesis and purification of novel adsorbent material products. Characterising material properties using in-house analytical instruments and external analytical services. Analysis of data from a wide range of sources (analytical, performance data, elemental analyses etc) to identify trends in performance and elucidate structure-property-performance relationships, which help guide future adsorbent material design. Performance testing of materials, in collaboration with the Engineering Team, and analysis of data. Collect and process experimental data, analyse results and compile experimental results in the appropriate formats (Word, PowerPoint) for wider dissemination.
