Main tasks and responsibilities:
- The energy sector and the (chemical) industry are in a transition towards the use of new feedstock, the use of renewable energy, process and energy efficiency, introduction of circularity and, of course, carbon capture and re-use. The group Sustainable Process & Energy Systems within our client TNO works on these transitional topics. TNO works for- and with (renewable) energy and chemistry companies and in a network of international knowledge partners.
- One of the flagships is the Shared Research Center Biorizon that works on the technology development of biobased aromatics. To complement the Biorizon team, we are looking for a process development engineer. You will work on the development (gram-scale) and scale-up (kilograms/hr) of chemical processes for the production of bio-aromatic compounds.
Qualifications:
- The ideal applicant would have the following background:
You have a B.Sc. in e.g. (organic) chemistry, process technology, chemical engineering with affinity for process intensification and/or flow chemistry;
You have at least 5 years of (industrial) working experience;
You are able to operate process installations (with a throughput of a few kg per day);
You have a good mastery of the English language, both verbal and written;
You have the flexibility to work at different locations (e.g. Delft and Bergen op Zoom); If required: relocation assistante will be provided.
You have a valid EU driver’s license B.

You are safety conscious and accurate.
Process Development Engineer Flow Chemistry
Our client: Shared Research Center Biorizon
Aromatics are among the most important resources for the chemical industry. Currently virtually all aromatic building blocks are made from fossil oil. Shared Research Center Biorizon, an initiative of TNO, VITO, ECN and the Green Chemistry Campus, develops technologies to produce aromatics derived from organic waste streams. The goal: to make commercial production of bio-aromatics feasible for industrial partners by 2025. This diminishes the dependence on fossil fuel, it lowers CO2-emissions and it provides the chemical industry a profitable and sustainable perspective.
