The Department is organized in six research groups; Separation technology, chemical reaction engineering, process systems engineering, pulp and paper technology, polymer chemistry as well as catalysis and petrochemistry. The Department is going through a period with large changes in its academic staff, and we are looking for four top qualified coworkers. --------------------------------------------------------- Professor/Assistant Professor in Separation Technology ref.no KB 11/00 --------------------------------------------------------- Responsibility for teaching and research in the area of separation technology with emphasis on processes for purification and separation of gases including, for example, unit operations such as absorbtion, membranes, cyogenic distillation and others. --------------------------------------------------------- Professor/Assistant Professor in Process Systems Engineering ref.no. KB 48/99 --------------------------------------------------------- Responsibility for teaching and research in the area of systematic methods for design, operation and optimization of integrated process plants. --------------------------------------------------------- Professor/Assistant Professor in Polymer Chemistry ref.no. KB 47/99 --------------------------------------------------------- Responsibility for teaching and research in the area of polymer chemistry, with special responsibility for areas related to industrially important bulk polymers. The relationship between the production process, polymer structure and polymer properties are central, including the characterization of polymers. --------------------------------------------------------- Assistant Professor in Catalysis and Petrochemistry ref.no. KB 49/99 --------------------------------------------------------- The candidate should preferably have knowledge about the characarterization og porous materials and studies of solid surfaces, in addition to a general background in catalysis and reaction kinetics. (In addition, we will within the next two months announce a fifth Professorship in Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics) For all the positions it is desirable with experience from problems of industrial relevance.
