Advertisement for the Post of Junior Research Fellow (On Contract) 

Applications are invited from Indian nationals for the post of Junior Research Fellow (on contract) in research project entitled "Environmentally sustainable Quantum Containers (QCs) assisted microalgae growth for faster CO2 capture and utilization with the potential recovery of the biomass for value-added products". This is a research project, funded by the Department of Biotechnology (DBT), New Delhi under BioE3 program for Carbon Capture& Utilization (CCU). This is a collaborative project with Dr. Somenath Garai, Assistant Professor, Department of Chemistry, B.H.U. Varanasi. 

The duly filled-in application (soft copy in any form) in prescribed format along with copies of supporting documents (scanned copy) must reach to email ID: mprai@mnnit.ac.in [Dr. Monika Prakash Rai] with subject of email as: "Application for JRF position in DBT CCU project" on or before 5:30 PM, 30 July, 2026. The position is purely temporary and will be governed by the funding agency rules & service conditions of Office of the Dean (Research & Consultancy), MNNIT Allahabad

Project Description: CO2 is the key resource for microalgae photosynthesis and carbon uptake converted to the dry matter, clearly demonstrating the CO₂ capture and utilization (CCU). With the increasing rate of CO2 emission, an advanced process is required for faster CO2 concentration, capture and utilization by microalgal system. Quantum containers (QCs) have proven chemistry for CO2 adsorption due to their unique nano-capsule structure, well-defined pores and easy exchange of their interior with the surrounding at neutral pH. Association of water-soluble N- hetero carbene (NHCs) metal complexes with QCs provides a stable platform for the CO2) capture and its reduction. Integrating the microalgae cultivation with QCs/NHCs in a CO2 bubbling 100 L fixed-bed photobioreactor encourages the concentration of CO2) in the local environment with simultaneous utilization as a novel CCU technology. The potentially recovered microalgae biomass processes for the production of valuable lipids and carotenoids for relevant applications. 

Objectives of the Project: The study in the project consists of objectives and tasks in the lines of above specified issues related to nanomaterials synthesis, characterization and their application on microalgae cultivation system for enhanced CO2 uptake and utilization in the form of bioproducts.
