Your Role...
A PhD position in engineering is available at the Chair for 'Urban Water Management' (Prof. Dr. Joachim Hansen), Department of Engineering. The successful candidate will be hired in the frame of the QUALISURE project funded by Interreg Greater Region (Principal Investigator: Dr. Silvia Venditti). The project aims to identify the emission hot spots in the catchment area of the Sûre reservoir (the largest drinking water source for Luxembourg), for which both Luxembourg and Belgium are liable. Existing wastewater treatment plants are expected to be optimized, and Nature-based solutions (NBS) intensified with innovative substrates will be installed (pilot scale) at the hot spots of emissions, both at wastewater treatment plants and Combined Sewer Overflows, so that their performance can be evaluated.
The PhD topic will aim to answer the questions related to the viability and optimization of NBS to reduce pollution by developing a novel concept. In addition to measuring micropollutants, nutrients and bacteriological contamination are also taken into account, especially for water reuse purposes. Laboratory tests will be performed before the pilot plant to characterize and select the most appropriate substrates respecting the principles of circularity and sustainability giving preference to local material. The results will be incorporated into a decision support tool developed by a project partner enabling the intelligent distribution of pollution in the catchment area. Finally, a cross-border master plan for maintaining the quality of the Sûre will be defined.
What we expect from you...
- Diploma or Master's degree in Chemical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Civil Engineering or related disciplines
- Assisting in Bachelor/Master projects and courses
- Curiosity, a genuine passion for scientific research
- Openness to interdisciplinary research and commitment to teamwork
- Commitment and capacity to critical thinking and good research ethics
- Advanced competence in laboratory and analytical work is necessary
- Fluent written and verbal communication skills in English is mandatory. German is desirable
