Postdoctoral Position In Cementitious Building Materials

Chalmers University Of Technology

This project aims towards a more sustainable transport infrastructure in Sweden, through replacement of cement for soil stabilization with industrial wastes or natural resources. This has the potential to not only contribute towards climate neutrality goals but also towards circular economy and resource efficiency in the transport sector.Project description

A known strategy for minimization of the needs for cement production is utilization of cement replacement material. A lot of research is still needed in this area, but a very promising field of application is soil stabilization.

This project, therefore, aims to enhance application of alternative cementitious materials in the construction supply chain, with a focus on soil stabilization, through improving the current available knowledge regarding drivers and barriers for realizing the identified technical opportunities in using binders with lower carbon footprints. Targeted improvements are in better technical understanding on functionality of these materials, standardization, environmental/economical/social aspects of the market impact along this value chain as well as proper communication ways (common language) of scientific and technical outcomes to the authorities, policy makers and the government. An achievement as such combined with all the scientific and technical knowledge obtained nationally and internationally on available types, volumes, potentials, and properties of cement replacement materials will in turn lead to:

1. Minimization of required cement in construction sector, which in turn will lead to the long-wanted climate-neutral and economic cement and construction industry.

2. Enhanced circular economy and resource efficiency as the materials in focus are all industrial wastes or natural abandoned resources.

3. Enabling a socially/economically and environmentally sustainable construction/cement industry through creation of new markets, business opportunities as wells as occupations.

Major responsibilities

As post-doc your main responsibility is to conduct research that assesses needs and requirements for promoting future application of blended binders with a minimized cement content in construction sector with a focus on soil stabilization. You are expected to work with a high degree of independence, while still being capable of close collaboration with other researchers and external partners when needed. You should be able to communicate scientific results to different stakeholders, both orally at meetings and conferences and in written form as scientific articles.
