PhD scholarship in Developing and Applying Digital Twin Technology to a (High Shear) Granulation Process – DTU Chemical Engineering
Danmarks Tekniske Universitet
The PhD student will be part of the PROSYS research centre at the Department of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering. Our research in the centre has focus on process systems engineering, on fermentation, biocatalysis and downstream processing. Most of our activities are in close collaboration with industry and other academic partners. This project will be performed in close collaboration with Novonesis A/S.The position is part of a research project funded by the Novo Nordisk Foundation. It is a collaborative project involving DTU, Novonesis A/S and Helix Lab Kalundborg. The objective of the project is the development and validation of a model for high shear granulation processes in operation at Novonesis production sites. The project must be seen in view of the general trend towards digitalization of pilot and full-scale processes, including the application of models in all phases of new product development. The main novelty of the PhD project is the introduction of mathematical modelling and Industry 4.0 (digital twins) on the industrial scale high shear granulation process, a process that is key to the formulation of solid products at Novonesis. The project is highly interactive, and you will work together with both industrial and academic experts in the field.Responsibilities and qualifications
The focus of this PhD position is on the development and implementation of dynamic models for granulation processes. More specifically, the candidate is expected to:
Candidates should have a master’s degree in chemical or biochemical engineering or closely related fields like e.g. mechanical engineering with the focus on fluid dynamic simulations.Furthermore, the ideal candidate should have hands-on experience from modelling material transport in fluidized beds or spray drying. Experimental background in the field of spray drying or granulation is an advantage.You must have a two-year master’s degree (120 ECTS points) or a similar degree with an academic level equivalent to a two-year master’s degree.Approval and Enrolment
The scholarship for the PhD degree is subject to academic approval, and the candidate will be enrolled in one of the general degree programmes at DTU. For information about our enrolment requirements and the general planning of the PhD study programme, please see .Assessment
