PhD Student Separation of vitality ingredients 3/3
Dutch Separation Technology Institute (DSTI)
Many foods contain antioxidants (phytochemicals), primarily to improve their shelf-life, but away from that, antioxidants are also known to convey health benefits. Obviously, the level of antioxidants in the food (after processing) needs to be such that an appreciable shelf-life is guaranteed, and this may imply that antioxidant needs to be supplemented to the food. Within DSTI, we develop new methods to isolate these components, to be used in healthy food products. At present, there are no large-scale technologies available to isolate polyphenols from large process streams cost-effectively, that don't use environmentally unfriendly toxic solvents.
In this project a separation toolbox, based on molecular affinity will be developed and applied in several industrial cases brought by the project partners, in which also food matrix effects have to be taken into account. Primary food targets are liquid streams of green and black tea. The first activity of all partners involved in the project will be to define the scope of the toolbox in more detail. We propose to build on the Product Driven Process Synthesis methodology and to refine the toolbox further while applying it to the designed separation systems.
Within this project we have a vacancy for a PhD student on the conceptual design of processes for the isolation of vital ingredients from concentrated streams. The PhD student will study the properties of selected components and foods, and from this derive rules on how to design processes to isolate these ingredients while retaining their functionality.
The foods will be concentrated; this implies that they may be concentrated slurries or even pastes or solids. This means that many conventional separation technologies, such as filtration or centrifugation cannot be easily applied. Recently developed methods to handle these concentrated foods will therefore be evaluated experimentally and in theory, which will be the basis for the conceptual process design.
The work will be carried out in close collaboration with another PhD student and a post-doctorate fellow, located at two different universities, and with two companies.
For more information please contact prof.dr.ir. R.M. Boom (tel.+31 317 482884) or email remko.boomatwur.nl.
Requirements
Affinity and background in process technology to apply. You should have a MSc degree in food or chemical engineering or similar, from a Dutch university, or equivalent.
The candidate should have excellent communicative skills, be familiar with the basis of process engineering and the basis of process design, and be willing to explore new and unknown paths. Furthermore, the candidate is: Analytic in approaching problems, creative, innovative and both result & team oriented.
Conditions of employment
We offer a full-time contract for 4 years, with an intermediate evaluation after one year. Your salary will be in line with the Dutch standards for PhD students and Post Docs.
Furthermore, you will also benefit from the opportunity to do research that is scientifically challenging and of industrial relevance. At last, you can expect extra support towards your next career step within the DSTI network and benefit from other attractive secondary labor conditions.

PhD Student Separation of vitality ingredients 2/3
Dutch Separation Technology Institute (DSTI)
Plant polyphenols (phytochemicals) are bioactive compounds with wide range of health benefits. They are present predominantly in solid matrix of plant material. Concentrated and purified forms of phytochemicals provide improved activity and can be used on the wide product range. At present, there are no large-scale technologies suitable to isolate polyphenols from large process streams cost-effectively, environmentally friendly and with non-toxic solvent route. In this project a separation toolbox, based on molecular affinity and taking into account the food matrix effects will be developed and applied in several industrial cases brought by the project partners.
At this moment in time, there is no structured synthesis method for these types of separation systems. As such, the 'toolbox' including design 'rules', heuristics, short-cut models need to be developed. The first activity will be to define the scope of the toolbox in more detail. This will be done in collaboration with the other partners in the project.
We propose to build on the Product Driven Process Synthesis methodology and to refine and build the toolbox further while applying it designing the separation systems.
The process synthesis will be applied to liquid process streams (green and black tea). During the course of this work the connection with original F0-00-03 project stream: Development of carrier systems with high throughput should be made. The attention should be paid to the use of the developed carrier systems for affinity isolation, such as: microstructured carriers, micro-structured devices, functionalized adsorptive fibers (membrane carriers).
Requirements
You should have a MSc degree in chemical engineering, with proven affinity to separation technology and food engineering, from a Dutch university, or equivalent. The candidate should have excellent communicative skills and be willing to explore new and unknown paths. Furthermore, the candidate is: Analytic in approaching problems, creative, innovative and both result & team oriented.

PhD researcher in a project called:Transition in integrated health care delivery
Posted by:
University of Twente (UT)
Job description
PhD Transition in integrated health care delivery
This project is aimed at:
1. Designing process approaches of integrated assisted living centers
Evaluating and reflecting on the institutional barriers to develop new partnerships to develop assisted living centers.
Design of demand-oriented approach for assisted living centers
2. Developing a learning community of practice
Method
An action research model is chosen. The interaction between the practitioner and the researcher is important to get a better understanding of the problems faced by the practitioners. Lessons are context-specific and the experiments are part of a broader strategic agenda of various organizations, a.o. Carint.
The experiments dot not have a clear end-goal but are aimed at generating lessons for the specific problems arising in several cases. The research results will support the decision-making process in those cases and therefore adapt a development or design paradigm.
Besides generating lessons and designing solutions in the cases the project is also aimed at generating lessons in order to develop a sustainable societal change. Developing an organization or institutional memory is, however, hampered due to the uniqueness of the projects. Learning in a project-based industry is constrained by 'learning boundaries' and derivation of lessons learned and best practices is impeded.
Requirements
University Graduate

1. Designing process approaches of integrated assisted living centers
Evaluating and reflecting on the institutional barriers to develop new partnerships to develop assisted living centers.
Design of demand-oriented approach for assisted living centers
2. Developing a learning community of practice
Method
An action research model is chosen. The interaction between the practitioner and the researcher is important to get a better understanding of the problems faced by the practitioners. Lessons are context-specific and the experiments are part of a broader strategic agenda of various organizations, a.o. Carint.
The experiments dot not have a clear end-goal but are aimed at generating lessons for the specific problems arising in several cases. The research results will support the decision-making process in those cases and therefore adapt a development or design paradigm.
Besides generating lessons and designing solutions in the cases the project is also aimed at generating lessons in order to develop a sustainable societal change. Developing an organization or institutional memory is, however, hampered due to the uniqueness of the projects. Learning in a project-based industry is constrained by 'learning boundaries' and derivation of lessons learned and best practices is impeded.
