Internship Overview
We are looking for a Chemist Trainee who will join our company for a 6 months internship. newcleo's Material & Chemistry (MCX) laboratories generate the experimental data behind materials’ qualification and lead coolant chemistry monitoring and control systems for the design of our lead-cooled fast reactor.
Join a multidisciplinary R&D; team developing chemistry technologies. The internship combines electrochemistry, chemical thermodynamics and kinetics, high temperature materials science and elements of reactor engineering through hands-on experimental work.
Work Plan
The candidate will support throughout its period in the company two main subjects of research:
1. Oxygen Chemistry Control in Liquid Lead Systems (50% of time)
- Support studies on the oxygen reduction reaction in liquid lead.
- Contribute to the investigation of the chemical kinetics elements underpinning the chemistry control processes for LFR normal operations.
- Perform electrochemical measurements, analyze experimental data and support technical reporting.
- Develop an understanding of oxygen monitoring and control strategies in liquid metal systems.
2. Lead Retention on Extracted Components (50% of time)
- Investigate lead retention on component surfaces after extraction from liquid lead environments.
- Design and execute immersion/withdrawal campaigns using stagnant lead and representative model geometries.
- Quantify retained lead and identify key influencing parameters.
- Support the interpretation of results relevant to LFR component design.
