We have a Ph.D. position available on "DESIGN, DEVELOPMENT, AND TESTING OF NEW SOLID MATERIALS AND SYSTEMS FOR CARBON DIOXIDE CAPTURE". The project is about to deliver a high-performance porous adsorbent material with a high affinity towards CO2 to selectively store CO2 from the mixture of the gasses experimentally with the help of machine-learning (ML) approaches and molecular simulations (MS). Specifically, the material designed using ML and MS will be synthesized experimentally, and finally, the material's performance will be checked for CO2 capture.
