Internship - Enhancing the Fermentability and Biodegradability of Hydrothermal Oxidised Organic Waste
Cetogenix is excited to offer a dynamic internship opportunity for two ambitious students to contribute to our cutting-edge R&D project focused on the downstream processing of Ceto-Boost™ system products. The primary challenge is to understand and enhance the biodegradability of aqueous products (liquors)produced through hydrothermal oxidation. This involves testing the biomethane potential (BMP) and fermentability of these liquors in small-scale fermentation batches.
Contribute to our research on improving the biodegradability of hydrothermal oxidation liquors. You'll conduct small-scale fermentation experiments and analyse data to optimise our processes. This internship offers hands-on lab experience and the chance to develop technical and communication skills.
Internship - Understanding and Optimizing Multi-Phase Flow Dynamics in High Pressure Systems
Cetogenix is offering an exciting internship opportunity for a talented student to join our R&D team. This project focuses on optimising the design of our hydrothermal oxidation reactors by understanding the impact of high temperature and pressure on mass transfer within a linear reactor system. Given that direct observation within the sealed metal reactor is not possible, the student will design and test a laboratory-scale multi-phase flow unit using optically transparent materials to simulate reactor conditions.
Help optimise the design of our hydrothermal oxidation reactors by studying multi-phase flow dynamics. You'll design and test a laboratory-scale model to simulate reactor conditions and improve mass transfer. This role provides practical experience in fluid dynamics and collaboration with our expert team.
Internship - Optimizing Energy Recovery via Heat Exchanger and Thermal Battery Design
Cetogenix invites a motivated student to join our team for an exciting internship focused on optimizing energy recovery in hydrothermal oxidation reactor design. The primary challenge is to achieve autothermal operation of the reactor, ensuring efficient heat exchange and incorporating thermal batteries to store heat for use during heating failures or maintenance periods.
Focus on achieving autothermal operation of our reactors by designing an efficient heat exchanger and thermal battery system. You'll build and test prototypes, gaining experience in thermal system design and energy recovery. This internship offers a unique opportunity to work on sustainable energy solutions and develop critical technical skills.
