Internationally, Chemical Engineering is placed in the 151-200 band amongst world universities.
For his outstanding services to research on porous materials for the German scientific community, the Klaus Unger Prize was awarded to Prof. Hartmann at the 35th German Zeolite Conference 2024.
A sea of beaming faces could be seen at the farewell ceremony for all graduates of the Faculty of Engineering on the FAU Erlangen South Campus. More than 200 congratulatory letters were presented to the graduates personally by the professors of the departments. The best graduates also received prizes from industry.
Olfa D’Angelo, Geovane de Jesus Rodrigues and Nadja Al Akkam were at the Large Diameter Centrifuge (LDC) for testing the effect of hypergravity on the behavior of granular materials similar to the soil found on the Moon surface.
NDR Nordmagazin reported on the Deep Sea Sampling research project. The Institute of Fluid Mechanics (LSTM) together with four strong partners is developing a mining tool that can execute mining with almost surgical precision leading to the lowest possible ecological footprint.
The fourth edition of Prof. Jürgen Karl's book "Decentralized Energy Systems" has been published by De Gruyter Oldenbourg just in time for the new year. Alongside conventional energy technologies for the generation of heat and electricity, this new edition describes above all combined heat and power (CHP), innovative technologies such as fuel cells, and the use of renewable energies.
A novel modular opto-biomechatronics bioreactor for simultaneous isotropic mechanical stretch application and fluorescence microscopy has been engineered at the Institute of Medical Biotechnology.
Maximilian Weitzer, member of the Chair of Energy Process Engineering, has received the Best Paper Award of the 7th International Seminar on Organic Rankine Cycle Power Systems (ORC 2023) for his paper "Reversible heat pump-ORC pilot plant – Experimental results and fluid charge optimisation". Congratulations!
