Researcher, Environmental Microbiologist
Fulltime, Deventer
The production and widespread use of chemicals in different industrial and domestic applications lead to the introduction of these chemicals into nature through discharge of wastewater or by direct applications. Biodegradation is regarded as the most important process in reducing chemical concentrations in the environment. The fate of chemicals in the environment is assessed by performing biodegradation tests.
Part of Nouryon's Expert Capability Group (ECG), the Environmental Chemistry laboratory is specialized in performing biodegradation tests according to international standard guidelines and under the Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) quality system. Our knowledge on environmental microbiology and microbial physiology ensures assessment of the biodegradability under optimal conditions. Results from biodegradation testing and research find use in substance profiling including classification and labelling, registrations, notifications, risk assessments and contribute to Safety Data Sheet (SDS) production
In your future role as Environmental Microbiologist
You will independently execute, analyze and interpret guideline tests and research regarding the environmental fate of Nouryon's substances and products. You will provide fundamental microbiological and analytical results in projects and studies using the OECD biodegradation screening tests and a range analytical techniques and instruments.
