About the Research:
The Energy Conversion branch is seeking an chemical engineer and/or an analytical chemist to design, construct, and operate bench-scale reactors with in-line chromatography to do systems level research on energy efficiency, conversion efficiency, and production rates for 3 main catalysis programs. The engineer/chemist will investigate reactor conditions, integrate catalyst materials, and construct the reactors to scientifically investigate questions and will enable and perform scientific research in alternative fuel synthesis and reformation related to Army energy. They would be researching the reaction conditions combining electrochemistry, photocatalysis, and heterogeneous catalysis.
We are seeking a Chemical Engineer with experience in designing, constructing, and operating customized reactors using electro/photo-chemistry and heterogeneous catalysis to join our fast-paced, collaborative team. In this role, you will be responsible for performing a variety of tasks related to research of the synthesis and reformation of alternative fuels. You will perform research under the supervision of senior staff and contribute to the future of Army energy as outlined in the Army Climate Strategy of 2022. This position is only open to U.S. Citizens.
