As a Senior Research Scientist, you’ll be at the forefront of advancing the water treatment research through innovative, practical, and cost-effective solutions, while exploring and understanding the complex water chemistry and photochemistry. The primary focus will be on UV- and non-UV advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), including ozone-based processes, for water remediation from chemical pollutants. In this role, you will have the opportunity to use your knowledge in molecular- and radical-driven AOPs, while foreseeing the impact of water quality parameters on the process efficiency and the potential undesired impact of AOPs on the quality of treated water, including byproduct formation, which require risk-mitigation strategies.
In this role, you will be immersed in running experiments, providing invaluable support to internal and external projects as well as to customers, contributing to company intellectual property, patents, technical papers for conferences and peer-reviewed journals.

Your extensive experience in water treatment, knowledge of water treatment market trends, regulatory
landscape, and customers’ needs, would drive forward our mission of sustainable water management.
