L’hydrodésulfuration (HDS) est un procédé de raffinage qui permet d’éliminer le soufre des carburants par des réactions d’hydrogénation et d’hydrogénolyse. L’élimination des composés soufrés est indispensable afin d’éviter l’empoisonnement des catalyseurs d’autres unités de la raffinerie (reformage, isomérisation) et de la nouvelle génération de pot catalytique.

[warning] This position is now closed. [/warning]   In the frame of a project financed by Toyota, the LCS recruits a post-Doc likely to start as soon as possible. The project aims at gaining further knowledge on a specific deNOx catalytic process: the NOx trap one. The comprehension work will be directed towards crucial questions

Etude des interactions silice – silane par spectroscopie infrarouge et modélisation multivariée. Contexte et description du projet Michelin est leader mondial de la fabrication de pneumatiques basse consommation à très faible résistance au roulement, incorporant une charge de silice. L’incorporation de ces charges polaires et hydrophiles au polymère apolaire requiert l’emploi d’un agent de couplage
