Research Scientist in Chemical Separations

1 week ago


Mouy, Hauts-de-France, United States Argonne National Laboratory Full time

The Argonne National Laboratory's Chemical Science and Engineering Division is seeking a highly motivated Research Scientist to conduct research in chemical separations with green solvents, including room temperature ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvents, with application to critical materials, such as rare earths and lithium.

This position offers the opportunity to work with a diverse team of experts to address fundamental questions in chemical separations, informing a more energy-efficient and environmentally aware nation. The team includes staff and postdoctoral fellows with diverse backgrounds in inorganic, analytical, and physical chemistry, as well as condensed matter physics.

As a researcher, you will contribute experimental insights to the group's efforts to understand the physical and chemical factors enabling low-energy separations, focusing on liquid-liquid extraction using nanostructured green solvents.

You will have the opportunity to lead studies, including the preparation of manuscripts and the presentation of your research in a national forum.

To be successful in this role, you should have a Ph.D. in chemistry, chemical engineering, physics, or a related field, with 0-3 years of experience or equivalent. You should also possess excellent oral and written communication skills, interest in designing and executing all aspects of research, and significant research experience with ionic liquids, deep eutectic solvents, or chemical separations.

Beyond the technical requirements, you must be able to model the lab's core values: Impact, Safety, Respect, Integrity, and Teamwork. Knowledge of solution thermodynamics, experience with experimental characterization techniques, and understanding of chemical separations of metal ions are preferred qualifications.

This is a full-time position with an estimated salary of $**85,000 - $120,000 per year**, commensurate with experience. As an equal employment opportunity employer, we welcome applications from qualified candidates who share our commitment to diversity and inclusion.
