stillingsbetegnelse: Postdoc in Gas Quality Requirement Analysis

jobbeskrivelse:
The Energy Systems Analysis Group (ESY) at DTU Management Engineering offers a Postdoc position in the area of gas quality requirement analysis in cooperation with Danish Gas Centre. ESY provides research within the field of energy system modelling, environmental and economic impacts. It is a cross-disciplinary research group employing around 15 scientists/senior scientists and Ph.D.-students with expertise in energy modelling, operations research and/or technical research. The research in the group is oriented towards project collaboration with Danish and international research institutions and authorities. ESY is part of the Systems Analysis Division, which is placed within the Department of Management Engineering at DTU. The division conducts basic and applied research within the area of energy system analysis, policy instruments, regulatory issues, energy demand, geography, economics, and climate science. The Danish Gas Technology Centre is DGC is a specialized consulting and development company within energy and environment. DGC's main focus area is gas utilization. DGC offers consulting services, research and development, laboratory testing, measurement, demonstration projects, and training. DGC was established by Denmark's natural gas companies in 1988. Responsibilities and tasks Description of the content of the position in relation to: The work of the Postdoc is a part of a large project (FutureGas) aiming at analysing the perspective for gas in the Danish energy system and its role in facilitating a transition towards an energy system independent of fossil fuels in the long term. The FutureGas project includes all major stakeholders of the Danish gas industry and the main purpose is to contribute to growth and green transition through interdisciplinary and coordinated research across the gas sector. The Postdoc will work with the WP2 of the project entitled “Gas Quality requirements for end-use”. The work within this WP, shall bring answers about how gas quality impacts appliances and applications in the domestic, commercial and industrial use sectors. One objective is to identify the most suitable application for new gases and it will include technical solutions (sensors etc.) in order to broaden the tolerance. The work will cover new gases (H2, biogas, syngas, bio methane..) and will include with both scenarios of injection into the natural gas grid and scenarios based on use in dedicated grids. The work of the Postdoc will includes comprends 5 main tasks: 1.Mapping of the Danish gas utilisations and evolution (main appliances, consumption, etc.) 2.Analysis of impact of gas quality on appliances. 3.Tests in laboratory (in support of task 2). 4. Investigation of existing and upcoming solutions to broaden gas quality variations (sensors, etc.). 5. Analysis of future potentials with focus on gas use in the industrial sector. Part of the work for task 2, 3, 4 and 5 will be based on international contacts. The Postdoc shall employ knowledge within combustion and gas technologies in general. The Postdoc is also expected to conduct testing in laboratory. Qualifications Candidates should have a PhD degree or equivalent. We are seeking candidates with a PhD degree within thermal engineering or similar preferably with experiences with combustion and gas technologies. In addition to the above, the following further qualifications will be considered in the assessment: •Candidates already having an experience in the gas industry •Excellent writing and communication skills in English •Team player - the research is conducted in multidisciplinary teams. •Ability to work in an interdisciplinary and international environment as well as in a Danish context •Interested to work in a laboratory environment. •Able to work independently and take initiatives •Proficiency in Danish (or Swedish, Norwegian) language is an advantage The Postdoc will be selected through a competitive application process.
