Electrochemist Electro - Extraction (FT) Job at Nth Cycle
According to the newly passed Inflation Reduction Act, ONLY Electric Vehicles that have at least 50% of battery components produced in the US by 2024 will qualify for rebates. This number changes to 100% by 2028. EV manufacturers are going to need to meet these new sourcing thresholds now or find their vehicles don't qualify for consumer rebates. Our technology SOLVES that problem!
Nth Cycle is a metal processing technology company. Our electro-extraction technology helps recyclers and miners capture more critical minerals—for use in lithium-ion battery manufacturing, among other things—while dramatically reducing costs and emissions.
Position Description:
Nth Cycle is a metal processing technology company. Our electro-extraction technology helps recyclers and miners capture more critical minerals—for use in lithium-ion battery manufacturing, among other things—while dramatically reducing costs and emissions.
Position Description:
- Nth Cycle has an immediate need for an Electrochemist to join and lead the technological innovation of our electro-extraction solution in the mining, metals, and recycling industries.
- Proven success in developing quantitative experimental and theoretical solutions to complex electrochemical problems and optimizing electro-extraction operating conditions will be the key to generating the novel techniques needed to achieve Nth Cycle’s unique metals and material upgrade goals.
- Will work with the research, development, and engineering teams to deliver electrochemical solutions in areas such as experimental and theoretical development of electrochemical filtration methods for selective dissolution/precipitation processes for complex metal solutions, investigation of novel flow-through electrode materials, and the development of in-situ methods for electrode and process performance characterization.
Key responsibilities and accountabilities:
- Creating and maintaining an active electroextraction database to compile methods and build a knowledge base.
- Develop flow-potential configurations for selective dissolution/precipitation of individual metals.
- Design appropriate electrode specifications for specific flow-potential configuration and target metal(s)
- Collaborate with the technical team to design and scale electroextraction configurations for improved performance.
- Develop electrochemical methods for in-situ characterization of electrode and process performance.
- Communicate technical results and challenges across the organization to advance product development.
- Preparing and presenting electroextraction flow sheets with appropriate mass-electron-flow balances.
- Develop reactive transport models to theoretically predict electroextraction performance.
- Investigation of novel methods for in-situ electrode fouling mitigation and regeneration.
Qualifications and experience:
- Ph.D., Master or Bachelors in an Electrochemistry related field with an experimental focus.
- 3-5 years of relevant electrochemistry-related hands-on experience.
- Significant experience with electrochemical methods such as CV, LSV, EIS, OCPT, and with aptitude in aqueous & solid metal analyses such as AA, ICP-MS, UV-vis, XRD, XRF, XPS, EDS, and SEM.
- Extensive experience with Microsoft Excel and other spreadsheet and modeling tools such as Matlab, Python, or
- Comsol for quantitative data analysis and electrochemical simulation.
- Thorough technical understanding of electrochemical methods, thermodynamics, kinetics, and mechanisms, with an understanding of metal dissolution-precipitation equilibrium, kinetics, and mechanisms.
