PROJECT DESCRIPTION The postdoctoral researcher will contribute to the project “Rare Earth Element Valorisation and Extraction in Vietnam: An Integrated Sustainability Approach” which addresses Vietnam’s strategic need for environmentally responsible and low-carbon pathways for rare earth element (REE) recovery and processing. The project integrates computational modelling, experimental research, fieldwork and appropriate sustainability tools (eg life cycle assessment) to evaluate and develop sustainable REE extraction routes. The postdoc will work on the molecular-level understanding and design of functionalized adsorbents for selective REE recovery from dilute or complex matrices. In addition, the postdoc is expected to conduct experimental and field-based investigations of biomass-assisted and nature-based extraction approaches in Vietnam. ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES The postdoctoral researcher will be expected to: Apply computational models (or collaborate with computational experts) for REE–adsorbent interactions. Perform or co-develop environmental impact analyses for REE processing routes. Design and conduct laboratory experiments and selected fieldwork related to biomass-based REE extraction in Vietnam. Analyze and integrate experimental, modeling and environmental-based data to develop sustainability insights. Co-supervise students and contribute to the overall research culture of the group. Present research findings at conferences, workshops and meetings. QUALIFICATIONS PhD in Materials Science, Engineering, Environmental Science, Applied Chemistry or related discipline. Strong record of publications in Journal Citation Indexed (JCR) journals. Qualification or experience in any of the following disciplines: Life Cycle Assessment, Density Functional Theory or Materials Experimentation & Characterization. WHAT WE OFFER A competitive and negotiable salary, commensurate with experience and expertise. The opportunity to work in a dynamic research environment at a leading university in Vietnam. Engagement in cutting-edge sustainability-focused research projects. Collaboration with renowned scientists and industry leaders at the national and international levels.
