The NSERC FlareNet Network is accepting applications for a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow to contribute to large-scale wind tunnel experiments to quantify carbon conversion efficiencies and pollutant emissions from gas flares found that are common in the global oil and gas industry.聽 This research is a central part of the NSERC FlareNet strategic network (), led out of 杏吧原创 University in collaboration with the University of Western Ontario, University of Alberta, University of British Columbia, and University of Waterloo.聽 This position will be based at Western University in London, ON but the successful applicant will also work very closely with the team at the Energy & Emissions Research Lab at 杏吧原创 University

Research Focus: The postdoctoral researcher will play an essential role in meeting the objectives of on effects of turbulent crosswinds on flare emissions.聽 Under this theme, FlareNet is conducting the world鈥檚 first systematic experiments to specifically quantify the impacts of wind turbulence scale and intensity on emissions from flares, including those associated with unconventional oil and gas recovery, as well as air- and steam-assisted flares. 聽Through the development of quantitative understanding and predictive models for gas and particulate phase emissions that include the effects of a turbulent crosswind, this work will be a central contribution of the NSERC network.
