The postdoc will join a project investigating the capacity for ex situ mineral carbonation in Switzerland and its potential to contribute towards achieving climate goals. The project involves laboratory experiments to determine carbonation rates and CO2 storage capacity of rocks in (or nearby) Switzerland, combined with fieldwork to characterize promising materials for ex situ carbonation. Techniques to be employed include, but are not limited to, X-ray diffraction, laser-ablation ICP-MS, electron microprobe and microscopy, fluid composition analyses, metal isotope analyses, and geochemical modelling.
