Jobbeschreibung

Shaping change: this is what drives us at Forschungs­zentrum Jülich. As a member of the Helmholtz Association with some 7,600 employees, we conduct interdisciplinary research into a digitalized society, a climate-friendly energy system, and a sustainable economy. We focus on the natural, life, and engineering sciences in the fields of information, energy, and bioeconomy. We combine this with expertise in high‑performance computing and artificial intelligence using unique scientific infrastructures.

A promising technology investigated at the Institute of Energy Technologies – Fundamental Electrochemistry (IET-1) is the Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cell (SOEC), which enables the energy efficient production of syngas using co-electrolysis – Turning CO2 and H2O into the CO- and H2-rich syngas, which serves as the base of carbon-neutral commodity chemical, E-fuel or sustainable aircraft fuel production.

Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) is a tested technology to turn syngas into a wide range of synthetic liquid hydrocarbons. Nowadays, the shift from fossil to renewable carbon feedstocks, is necessary for the chemical industry and can be achieved by combining the SOEC technology with FTS, while using biogas as a feedstock. To determine the economic viability, energy- and carbon efficiency of this process, rigid process simulations of a realistic biogas-fed 40-kW Reformer-SOEC-FTS system, the selection of optimal process parameters and clever heat integration are necessary.
