For the Bright Renewables engineering department we are looking for interns! The following internships / graduation assignments are available. Apply using the apply button and select the (graduation) internship you are interested in.
The internships on this page are:
1 Methanol synthesis;
1 Methanol synthesis
Suitable for BSc or MSc in Chemical Engineering / Mechanical Engineering / Sustainable Energy
Bright delivers biogas upgrading systems, in these systems methane and carbon dioxide are separated using membrane technology. Thereby, the methane quality is enriched for injection in the natural gas grid (if required liquefaction is also possible). Furthermore, technology for the capture and liquefaction of CO₂ are also delivered. One of the next developments for Bright is the utilization of the captured CO₂ for production of renewable methanol.
In this internship you will work on the development of the demonstration set-up as well as the development of the future product line of methanol reactors. The aim of the internship is to increase the understanding of the dynamic operation of the methanol reactor module. This will be done via a modelling assignment, and there ai is to use the developed model for current and future product design within the methanol systems scope.
Your tasks:
Evaluation of causes and influences on dynamic operation;
Detail design of process equipment;
Modelling and validate the dynamic nature of the process equipment involved;
Technology sizing/compliance to the technology portfolio of the HoSt group;
Techno-economic assessment of made designs;
Create an overall model, and controller structure for the dynamic operation of the methanol system.
