The position is available from November 1 or as soon as possible

Research area The chosen candidates will play an active role in developing applied research within the interdisciplinary platform for green biorefining at Aarhus University. The goal of the platform is to develop and optimize biomass conversion processes for locally produced protein feed/food from green leafy biomass and investigate, develop and optimizing the use and applications of process side streams. The Green Biorefining Technologies research group has an established and running demonstration platform for green biorefining, capable of processing at a10 ton biomass per hour -scale, and a large project portfolio covering the whole biorefinery value chain. The candidate will be a part of a dedicated team, bringing new technologies from laboratory- to pilot- and demonstration scale, while optimizing each unit operation and the integrated process through detailed chemical analysis and modelling.

Main focus of postdoc no. I: Conversion of fibrous agricultural side streams, especially grasses and legumes, into valuable sugars for further biochemical conversion and valuable fibres for biomaterials. Including pretreatment and pulping, enzymatic treatments, and biochemical conversion, as well as detailed chemical- and biochemical analysis of biomass samples. Process development, optimization and process integration are important deliverables, and the candidate will work together with demonstration scale process engineers to up-scale these processes for biomass conversion and integrate them into the existing demonstration platform..

Main focus of postdoc no. II: Technology development within biomass processing for sustainable biotextile production, modification, functionalization and recycling, including biopolymer/cellulose extraction, - solubilization, -fibrillation, -regeneration and fiber spinning. The biomass will mainly come from the green biorefining process, but can also include other biomass resources. The postdoc will be a key person in the build-up of a new biotextile research area at AU ENG establishing and maintaining collaborations with national and international partners in the textile industry along the textile value chain in close connection to the Green Biorefining Platform..
