Department/Area
Materials Science & Mechanical Engineering Position Description A postdoctoral scholar is sought to develop, optimize and evaluate the performance of an electrochemically-driven CO2 capture cycle utilizing a combination of aqueous and nonaqueous electrolytes. The scholar will join the research group of Professor Michael J. Aziz in the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences and will collaborate with organic chemists from the research group of Professor Richard Liu in Harvard’s Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology . The project combines flow-cell electrochemistry, electrode and separator engineering, gas-liquid contact, along with the design and construction of an instrumented system. Associated instrumentation includes UV-VIS spectrophotometry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and analytical chemistry techniques available as services from CCB.
