The Chemical Engineering Department consists of six diverse, but synergetic, scientific disciplines:
| Catalytic Process and Materials (CPM)
Within CPM, the aim is to develop heterogenous catalysts based on the understanding of kinetics, mechanisms, structure-performance relationships, as well as the design of catalytic reactors
|
| Sustainable Process Technology (SPT)
The SPT Group focuses on process development, separations, reaction/reactor engineering and industrial chemistry/catalysis
|
| Mesoscal Chemical Systems (MCS)
MCS research is summarized by three activities: structure materials in 3D down to the nanometer scale, managing fluids at the mesoscale, and engineering microsystems with integrated functionality
|
| PhotoCatalytic Synthesis (PCS)
The research program of PCS is intented for the development of innovative materials and concepts for photo- and electrocatalytic reactions with high efficiency
|
| Inorganic Membranes (IM)
In the IM group reseach encompasses the development of new membrane materials, a better fundamental understanding of transport mechanisms, and the design of membrane processes and membrane reactors
|
| Physics of Complex Fluids (PCF)
Within PCF the research connects fundamental phenomena in static and dynamic wetting, nanofluidics, microfluidic two-phase flow, functional surfaces, chemical reactivity at interfaces to practically relevant applications
