Postdoc on Life cycle Assessment of Nutrient Recycling Technologies from Sewage Sludge and Food
1 week ago
Department of Plant and Environmental Sciences
Faculty of Science
University of Copenhagen
The Department of Plant and Environmental Sciences, Section of Soil and Plant Sciences invites applicants for a postdoctoral position in Life Cycle Assessment of Nutrient Recycling Technologies from Sewage Sludge and Industrial Residues. The start date is 1 January 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter, and the position has a duration of 29 months.
Nutrient recycling is a prerequisite for sustainable development. This means that all side-streams from both production and consumption systems will have to be used or upgraded to ensure that nutrients are not lost. However, while nutrient recycling is essential for sustainability, circular systems are not necessarily sustainable. Before implementing new technologies for nutrient recycling, it is important to quantify their environmental impacts and ensure that there are no serious environmental trade-offs. Life Cycle Assessment is an environmental assessment methodology designed for assessing environmental impacts throughout the life cycle of products and services. The postdoc position will deploy life cycle assessment to evaluate nutrient recycling technologies in various contexts.
The postdoc will be affiliated with two EU projects, WalNUT and DeliSoil. WalNUT aims to develop the necessary concepts and technological solutions to redesign the value and supply chains of nutrients from wastewater and brine. DeliSoil will develop improved recycling and processing solutions for food industry residues. Both projects focus on using side-streams for the production of biobased fertilizers with positive effects on soil health.
The postdoc will be responsible for data procurement from EU partners and other sources, conducting life cycle assessments using the collected data, and may involve some methodological development, especially relating to the assessment of soil health. The position may also include performance of other duties.
For further information on the Department, please visit this link . Inquiries about the position can be made to Prof. Sander Bruun at , +45 29406537.
