Polycondensation Process Engineer (m/f/d)

• Your mission
• Join aevoloop, one of Europe’s fastest-scaling deep-tech startups, and help shape the future of next-generation plastics.

Develop a

50 kg batch polycondensation process

for our

innovative, novel polyester based plastic products

as an integral part of aevoloop’s polymer R&D team.

Identify, develop, and install

reaction automation concepts for our polycondensation processes

.

End-to-end responsibility for the development of aevoloop’s pilot polycondensation process

with a focus on hardware. Build and refine a process, starting from the dosing of monomers and catalysts and the addition of processing aids (e.g. rheology modifiers and stabilisers), proceeding through several polymerisation stages, and finishing with the production of the final polymer pellet.

Perform techno-economic assessments, process simulations, and mass and energy balance calculations in order to

identify the ideal polycondensation process

.

Determine safety-related process

and material parameters

and

• derive appropriate countermeasure strategies
• . Lead HAZOP analyses to make sure all safety standards are met.
