In the realm of New Energy Technologies, gaining a deeper understanding of fluid flow phenomena in porous media is essential to advance applications such as geothermal energy and carbon dioxide (CO2) storage.
The PhD is part of a Franco-German co-funded project between IFP Energies Nouvelles (IFPEN) at Lyon and the Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH), focusing on the modelling of gas/liquid flows in industrial bioreactors.
Social factors are largely overlooked in our energy foresight models, which can lead to a fragile vision of the transition. This thesis seeks to address this gap by developing an innovative methodology to integrate the social acceptability of decarbonization solutions into prospective modeling and scenario building.
The transportation sector has a significant impact on ecology and the environment, both in terms of air and soil pollution, production of greenhouse gases (around 20% in the world and 40% in France), but also in terms of supply of material resources.
Eligibility conditions : Have resided in the USA in 2025.
Join a cutting-edge European research network!
As part of the MSCA-DN DT-HATS project, this PhD study addresses a high-impact challenge: developing a next-generation simulation framework for hydrogen/ammonia (H₂/NH₃) heavy-duty engines, two key energy carriers in the path toward carbon neutrality.
Join a cutting-edge European research network!
As part of the MSCA-DN DT-HATS project, this PhD study addresses a high-impact challenge: developing a next-generation simulation framework for hydrogen/ammonia (H₂/NH₃) dual-fuel combustion, two key energy carriers in the path toward carbon neutrality.
In New Energy Technologies (NET) fields, answering numerous matters and managing applications like geothermal, carbon dioxide (CO2) or hydrogen (H2) storage, require a good comprehension of fluid flows in porous media.
We are excited to announce an open PhD position at IFPEN—fully funded research projects within the ANR-DFG French-German collaboration. This is a unique opportunity to join an international team dedicated to advancing cutting-edge research at the intersection of nanoporous materials and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques.
It has been established that molecular hydrogen (H₂) is present on the planet in the form of diffuse or continuous emanations. Nevertheless, many questions remain regarding its potential for exploitation. Hydrogen is an important electron donor (reductant) for subsurface ecosystems.
Digital holographic microscopy (DHM) has emerged as a powerful and transformative imaging technique, offering label-free, non-invasive visualisation of cellular structures and dynamic processes with exceptional sensitivity. Such a technology offers great promise for neuronal studies because it is label-free and quantitative.
Le réchauffement climatique à l’échelle de la planète a conduit l’Europe à s’inscrire sur une trajectoire de réduction de sa consommation énergétique et de ses émissions de CO2 avec un objectif de neutralité carbone à 2050.
