Agreement Value:

$30,000.00

Agreement Date:

Jun 1, 2023 - Feb 29, 2024

Description:

As part of the development of 'Thermo-mechanical pyrolysis' of methane, Turquoise Hydrogen (TH) is currently conducting 'proof of concept research' at University of Saskatchewan (UofS) in Chemical & Biological Engineering department. The research is conducted by Dr. Biswajit Saha, a MITACS funded postdoc under the supervision of Dr. A Dalai. While assessing the effectiveness of mechanical scraping of catalytic surface for catalyst regeneration, it is identified that development of a suitable catalyst formulation which favors value-added carbon products would be immensely valuable for the project. Hence, TH would like to hire a fresh graduate to work with the research group at UofS in the development of an optimum catalyst formulation.
