About CoolVOC

CoolVOC is a climate-tech startup developing next-generation systems for VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) capture and neutralization from industrial emissions.

Our patented process combines
advanced adsorbent materials
and
thermodynamic cycling
to achieve high-efficiency abatement and solvent recovery with minimal energy input.

We are now transitioning from
lab prototype
to
pilot phase
, scaling toward industrial deployment in collaboration with leading partners in the chemical, recycling, and semiconductor industries.

What You'll Do

You will take a
hybrid role
combining materials R&D, experimental process design, and pilot validation, bridging the gap between
adsorbent science
and
system engineering
.

1. Adsorbent Development & Characterization

  • Develop, select, and evaluate adsorbent materials (Zeolites, Activated Carbons, MOFs, hybrid materials).
  • Characterize surface and structural properties (BET, TGA/DSC, FTIR, XRD, GC, breakthrough testing).
  • Assess adsorption capacity, kinetics, and regeneration performance under realistic VOC conditions.
  • Study thermal and pressure swing regeneration (TSA, VSA), humidity effects, and material stability.

2. Experimental Design & Process Development

  • Design and execute lab and pilot-scale adsorption/desorption experiments.
  • Operate and maintain experimental systems - adsorption beds, gas loops, heat exchangers, compressors, flow measurement.
  • Perform mass and energy balances and calculate adsorption cycle efficiency.
  • Develop and apply DoE and statistical models to correlate material properties with system performance.

3. System Integration & Scale-Up

  • Support system assembly, piping, instrumentation, and troubleshooting.
  • Participate in pilot testing campaigns, data acquisition, and performance optimization.
  • Provide feedback on material selection and regeneration strategies for large-scale systems.

4. Data Analysis & Reporting

  • Process and interpret experimental data using Python.
  • Generate technical reports, test summaries, and presentations.
  • Contribute to intellectual property and documentation.

Qualifications

Education

  • M.Sc. in Chemical Engineering, Materials Science or Chemistry
  • B.Sc. candidates with strong applied or hands-on experience will also be considered.

Experience

  • 1–3 years of practical experience in adsorption/desorption, porous materials, or gas treatment systems.
  • Strong understanding of adsorption thermodynamics and regeneration mechanisms.
  • Hands-on experience operating lab or pilot-scale gas systems.
  • Proficiency with analytical methods (BET, TGA, GC, FTIR, XRD).
  • Experience with data analysis and modeling (Python or MATLAB).
  • Excellent English and technical communication skills.

Bonus Points

  • Experience with VOC abatement, solvent recovery, or environmental systems.
  • Familiarity with SolidWorks or process simulation/flow diagram software.
  • Strong mechanical aptitude (BSP/NPT fittings, valves, tubing, instrumentation).
  • Team-oriented mindset with a mix of scientific curiosity and engineering practicality.

Why Join Us

  • Join a
    mission-driven team
    tackling industrial sustainability and clean air.
  • Work in a
    state-of-the-art R&D lab
    in Herzliya with direct impact on product design and performance.
  • Be part of a
    fast-growing startup
    developing breakthrough clean-tech technology with global relevance.
