WoodTreat : fungal bioremediation of highly polluted post-consumer wood waste

  • Location

The main location will be in Epinal, France with strong connections with Labs located in Nancy.

  • Missions

The proposed position is part of the Woodtreat project, funded under the Horizon Europe programme (HORIZON-JU-CBE-2024-R-01). It addresses the pressing challenge of valorizing highly polluted post-consumer wood waste (HPPCW).
Woodtreat proposes a transformative, multi-sectoral approach to recover clean secondary materials from these waste streams and convert them into high-value bio-based products. 

The open post-doctoral position will take place in the WP2 of the project and will aim to investigate the combination of thermo-chemical and biological processes for the removal of contaminants occurring in the HPPCW.
