Chemical Engineer

Purpose of the role:

We are seeking a highly skilled Chemical Engineer with more than 5 years of experience in scrubber design, flue gas treatment systems, and reactor -based pollutant capture processes. The ideal candidate will play a key role in designing, optimizing, and implementing advanced flue gas cleaning and solid sorbent CO2 capture systems for industrial and power generation applications.

Roles and responsibilities: 

• Design and development of wet and dry scrubber systems, including absorber towers, mist eliminators, and associated process equipment.
• Conceptualisation and design of flue gas reactors for simultaneous removal of CO2, SOx, and NOx.
• Conduct mass and energy balance calculations, CFD analysis, and process simulations for gas–liquid and gas–solid systems.
• Evaluate and select solid sorbents and catalysts for multi-pollutant capture and CO2 absorption.
• Optimise process parameters (flow rate, temperature, pressure, residence time) for maximum pollutant removal efficiency and minimal energy consumption.
• Prepare PFDs, P&IDs, equipment datasheets, and technical specifications.
• Collaborate with mechanical and instrumentation teams on equipment sizing, layout, and control strategy.
• Support pilot-scale testing and transition of technologies to commercial scale.
• Conduct performance assessment and retrofit studies for existing flue gas treatment installations.
• Ensure compliance with environmental standards (CPCB, EPA, ISO 14001, etc.).
• Provide technical documentation, reporting, and presentation support for R&D and client proposals.

Qualification and Requirements:

• B.E./B.Tech or M.E./M.Tech in Chemical Engineering (Environmental or Process specialisation preferred).
• Minimum 5 years of experience in flue gas treatment, scrubber design, or CO2 capture.
• Strong understanding of gas–liquid/solid reaction engineering and mass transfer fundamentals.
• Hands-on experience with process design tools (Aspen Plus / HYSYS / ANSYS Fluent / COMSOL / MATLAB).
• Familiarity with solid sorbent CO2 capture and multi-pollutant control systems.
• Knowledge of corrosion control, materials selection, and system integration in industrial environments.
• Excellent analytical, documentation, and communication skills.
• Ability to work in a multidisciplinary team and manage end-to-end project tasks.

Preferred Experience:

• Design and commissioning of modular retrofit systems for power plants or process industries.
• Involvement in pilot or demonstration projects for carbon capture.
• Exposure to zero-emission or carbon-neutral process design concepts.
