相信化工的虫子们都了解twente的MTG组，暑期结束的ICOM就是在twente主办的。大家参考下！
PH.D. MEMBRANE TECHNOLOGY FOR OIL – WATER SEPARATION

Within the Membrane Science & Technology group (www.membrane.nl) of the University of Twente and in close collaboration with Wageningen University and Wetsus, we have a vacancy for a Ph.D. position on:
Membrane technology for oil – water separation
Recent developments in oil production technologies emphasize the application of Improved Oil Recovery (IOR) and Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) technologies. These processes rely on the injection of aqueous liquids into an oil reservoir to increase the sweep efficiency and stimulate oil production. Current practice for offshore applications is that seawater is used as source water. Often, seawater shall be desalinated to meet the injection specifications.
As an alternative to seawater desalination, produced water can be treated for reinjection to avoid the intake of seawater or freshwater. The produced fluids consist of a combination of crude oil, formation water and the injected water. In order to allow the reinjection of produced water, pretreatment and purification of the water is necessary to meet the specifications required for reinjection.
This project investigates the produced water reinjection possibilities for IOR and EOR. The purpose of this project is to identify, develop and demonstrate methods to pretreat and purify the produced water for reinjection. Next to artificial feed waters, produced water from oil production locations will be used in laboratory experiments. Attention shall be paid to both pre-treatment requirements, membrane fouling and development of new membranes for produced water treatment. The effect of residual oils, production chemicals (scale and corrosion controlling chemicals) and biocides on membrane performance will be evaluated.
The research will be performed at Wetsus, Centre of Excellence for Sustainable Water Technology in Leeuwarden, The Netherlands (www.wetsus.nl).
We are looking for highly motivated and enthusiastic researchers with an MSc degree in chemistry, chemical engineering, material science or a related topic, with adequate experimental and theoretical skills.
We prefer candidates with a good team spirit, who like to work in an internationally oriented environment. Fluency in English is a requirement. An interview and a scientific presentation will be part of the selection procedure.
Interested candidates can send their motivation letter, CV (including references) and list of courses and grades to Dr. Kitty Nijmeijer (d.c.nijmeijer@utwente.nl; phone: +31 53 489 4185).
