The Position
CSIRO Energy is seeking to appoint a Postdoctoral Fellow for the characterisation of coal and other particulates in dust and other environmental samples.
CSIRO’s Coal/Component Grain Analysis (CGA) is a method of particle analysis based on petrographic techniques. It uses image analysis techniques to analyse images of petrographic sample mounts collected from an optical reflected light microscope to provide a calibrated reflectance fingerprint of individual particles greater than one micron for characterisation and interpreted for specific applications. CGA information is currently able to inform all steps in the coal value chain as well as help address environmental concerns.
The successful candidate will play a key role in the application of CGA method to the assessment of coal and other components in dust and other environmental samples. You will undertake research to investigate whether this method could be applied to other types of materials such as biochars.
Your duties will include
