Posting Details Position Details Title Postdoctoral Fellow - Macrocycle Synthesis for Chloride Sequestration and Sensing Appointment Status Non-Tenure Track Department IU Bloomington Chemistry
Location Bloomington Position Summary The Department of Chemistry in the College of Arts + Sciences at Indiana University, consists of a well-rounded research community with cutting-edge expertise in a wide variety of modern disciplines including analytical chemistry, organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, physical chemistry, materials chemistry, and biochemistry.Job Summary: This postdoctoral scholar position will
explore innovative approaches to sequester and sense chloride by designing and synthesizing anion receptors for use in polymer materials and coatings. Critical activities involve the synthesis of novel receptors. The intensive and extensive use of water in modern society places increasing demands on water supplies. This situation negatively impacts fresh water fit for human consumption and agricultural usage as well
as the need in industry. Sustainable practices that either enable the removal of chloride from water or enable the performance of industrial processes even in chloride-laden waters are needed. Traditional approaches use reverse osmosis (RO) and electrodialysis across membranes, ion exchange with resin beads, or simple distillation. Despite advances in anion recognition chemistry, none of them use these principles,
