PhD positions (2) in Electrocatalytic CO2 and CO Reduction at Elevated Temperatures for Making Long Carbon Chain Species – DTU Physics

This project will look to operate CO2 electrolysis at elevated temperatures and pressures approaching the Fischer-Tropsch regime to see how the catalysts behave in these conditions. We will focus on studying this both in aqueous solutions and non-aqueous solutions as each behaves substantially different. Because of this we have two open PhD positions: one for aqueous and non-aqueous CO2 reduction. In investigating this topic, the PhD candidate’s main tool would be electrochemical techniques such as cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, and potentially impedance measurements.
