Design of mechano-chemical systems for hydrogen production from metal hydrides

The Fuel Cells and Electrochemistry Laboratory and the Ariel Biofluid and Energy Lab at Ariel University, Israel, are seeking PhD or postdoctoral candidates to conduct applied and analytical research in the field of mechano-chemical systems for hydrogen production from metal hydrides.
The candidate will join a well-established interdisciplinary group of scientists under the supervision of Prof. Alex Schechter and Prof. Idit Avrahami and will contribute to our efforts to explore the physical, chemical, and mechanical design of catalytic reactions to optimize hydrogen generation for fuel cells, hydrogen storage, and other electrochemical applications for mobile and off-the grid systems. This research is expected to lead to fundamental breakthroughs in the energy industry and a deep scientific understanding of the mechanisms involved.
The proposed position is supported by the Israeli Ministry of Energy. Ariel University offers a collaborative research environment and features state-of-the-art research facilities relevant to the project. A full competitive scholarship and subsidized accommodation are offered to prospective candidates.
Required Qualifications: Advanced degree (PhD for postdoctoral applicants, MSc for PhD applicants) in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, or Materials Science, Experience in laboratory experiments, hands-on and creative problem-solving skills, and proven scientific publication record.
