Glasgow, United Kingdom University of Strathclyde Full time

**Salary**: £36,024 per annum

**FTE**: 1

**Term**:Fixed for 18 months to 30/06/2025

**Closing Date**:26 November 2023

The Department of Chemical and Process Engineering (CPE) within the Faculty of Engineering is seeking to recruit a Research Associate to carry out the modelling work for the awarded project “Regeneration of the spent Raney nickel and tungstic acid catalysts from Bio-MEG hydrogenolysis”, that funded by PETRONAS Research Sdn Bhd. The overall aim of the project is to determine the deactivation mechanism of the Raney-Ni and tungstic acid catalyst during cellulosic biomass hydrogenolysis to polyols, further to develop an effective regeneration method to recover the spent catalyst and develop a ‘one-pot’ process for catalyst regeneration. The postholder will be responsible on computational modelling of the reaction mechanism and exploration of the kinetics of the biomass-to-polyols process, predicting the yield of the key products based on the theoretical mechanism and kinetic results. The postholder will work closely with the principle investigators, the Research Associate-experimental, the PhD student, and Petronas research team that involved in this project.

As a Research Associate, under the general guidance of a research leader, you will develop research objectives, play a lead role in relation to a specific project/s or part of a broader project, conduct individual and/or collaborative research, contribute to the development of new research methods, and contribute to the securing of funds for research. You will write up research work for publication, individually or in collaboration with colleagues, and disseminate the results via peer reviewed journal publications and presentation at conferences. You will join external networks to share information and ideas, inform the development of research objectives. You will collaborate with colleagues to ensure that research advances and you will collaborate with colleagues on the development of knowledge exchange activities by, for example, participating in initiatives which establish research links with industry and influence public policy and the professions. You will co-supervise student projects, provide advice to students and contribute to teaching as required by, for example, running tutorials. You will contribute in a developing capacity to Department/School, Faculty and/or University administrative and management functions and committees and engage in continuous professional development.

To be considered for the role, you will be educated to a minimum of PhD level in an appropriate discipline, or have significant relevant experience in addition to a relevant degree. You will have sufficient breadth or depth of knowledge in computational modelling, reaction mechanism exploration, kinetics analysis and a developing ability to conduct individual research work, to disseminate results and to prepare research proposals. You will have an ability to plan and organise your own workload effectively and an ability to work within a team environment. You will have excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to listen, engage and persuade, and to present complex information in an accessible way to a range of audiences.
