Become an intern at TNO!
- About this position In this internship, you will work at the exciting intersection of electrochemistry, materials science and clean technology.
- Together with a multidisciplinary team, you will design, test and improve electrode materials, translate experimental results into new insights, and help bring CO₂ conversion one step closer to practical application.
- You will investigate copper-based catalysts, known for their promising selectivity, and explore how electrode design, material composition, stack assembly and operating conditions influence performance.
- What will be your role?
- Build your scientific foundation - Explore the latest literature on CO₂ electroreduction and synthetic fuel pathways. - Understand catalyst materials, especially copper based systems for ethylene production. - Learn about electrochemical reactor and cell design.
- Create and improve electrode materials - Design and fabricate novel electrodes. - Investigate materials and processes that improve conductivity, selectivity, and durability of the electrodes.
- Run experiments and uncover insights - Perform electrochemical CO₂ reduction experiments. - Optimise operating conditions such as temperature, feedstock flow and current density. - Analyse performance in terms of efficiency, selectivity, and stability.
- Collaborate, communicate and shape the project - Discuss results with a multidisciplinary...
