Description

The Trabolsi Research Group at New York University Abu Dhabi invites applications for a post-doctoral associate position focused on the development of covalent organic frameworks (COFs)-based adsorbents and membranes for advanced water purification technologies.

The successful candidate will lead innovative research aimed at optimizing the application of COFs in water purification, with a particular focus on removing emerging contaminants such as pharmaceuticals and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from water. This project will involve the directed synthesis of COF structures tailored for the selective removal of specific contaminants, followed by comprehensive studies of their molecular interactions with various emerging pollutants.

Key Responsibilities:


	Design and synthesize COFs with specific properties for targeted contaminant removal.
	Develop and optimize methods for using COF-based materials in water treatment systems, including adsorption columns and membrane technologies.
	Conduct experiments using techniques such as batch adsorption protocols, adsorption columns, membrane cells, and electrochemical water decontamination.
	Analyze and interpret data from these techniques to refine and improve COF performance in real-world applications.
	Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team of PhD scientists, graduate students, and undergraduates, contributing to a dynamic and collaborative research environment.


Qualifications:


	PhD in Chemistry, Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, or a related engineering discipline.
	Extensive experience in the synthesis and characterization of covalent organic frameworks, particularly as they relate to water treatment applications.
	Strong background in experimental techniques relevant to the project, including experience with porous frameworks in water purification systems.
	Proficiency in analytical techniques used to characterize materials and their interactions with contaminants.
	A proven track record of interdisciplinary research and collaboration in materials science and engineering is preferred.
