As an Environmental Technology Researcher, you will work on innovative solutions for emission reduction and sustainable manure processing. You will develop, investigate, and support technological applications that contribute to a circular and future-proof livestock sector. Combining applied research with systems analysis, you will work both in the laboratory and on-site at livestock farms and manure processing facilities.
You will also use modeling and scenario analysis to assess the potential impact of new technologies at both regional and national levels.
What you will do.
- Designing and carrying out research into manure processing technologies, including anaerobic digestion, drying, and nutrient recovery from manure.
- Measuring ammonia and greenhouse gas emissions from manure storage and processing systems.
- Analyzing and optimizing environmental technologies used in livestock farming and advising on future technological developments.
- Translating research findings into practical applications for the agricultural sector and government.
- Collaborating with fellow researchers, industry partners, government bodies, and other stakeholders.
- Contributing to innovative projects focused on circular agriculture, renewable energy, and sustainable farming.
Profile
You are a proactive and results-oriented researcher who works effectively both independently and as part of multidisciplinary teams.
