Arbetsbeskrivning

We’re scaling our team and seeking an organic chemist with expertise in textile dyes and fiber chemistry to lead the research on dye extraction from blended textile waste. The goal is to pursue the development and scale-up of our innovative methods for removing different types of dyes (e.g., reactive, VAT, and disperse dyes) without compromising on the fiber quality. The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of dye-fiber interactions and potential extraction or impregnation techniques.

Responsibilities:

- Develop and optimize dye extraction processes from textile waste.

- Study the chemical properties of various dyes and their attachment mechanisms to fibers.

- Characterize extracted dyes, additives, and textiles to ensure quality and sustainability.

- Explore innovative techniques, such as supercritical fluid extraction, for efficient dye removal and reuse.

- Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to integrate findings into textile recycling solutions.
