Postdoc position in towards a circular plastics economy within the planetary boundaries

The Energy and Process Systems Engineering (EPSE) Group at ETH Zürich is looking for a Postdoc exploring pathways to a circular carbon economy, with a focus on plastics recycling. The position focuses on integrating recycling, carbon capture & utilization, and bio-based technologies to shape a sustainable future industry for plastics and beyond.

The EPSE group, led by Prof. Dr. André Bardow, is dedicated to advancing sustainable energy and chemical process systems. Our research spans from the molecular level to the scale of systems. We develop simulation and experimental methods to advance sustainable energy and chemical processes from the molecular to the system scale.

Project background

The vision of our recently funded ERC Advanced Grant DISC3Lab is to devise a validated discovery loop for sustainable chemical processes, targeting the solvent-based recycling of plastics. Chemical recycling is a key element of a transition towards a chemical industry w...
