Electrochemical Cell with three electrodes

Electrochemistry

We deal with electrochemical kinetics for bioelectrochemical catalysis and the reduction of metal oxides. This is carried out both in molten salts and at low temperatures in NaOH or Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES).

Wärmeverteilung in Schwamm

Reaction Engineering

In the field of reaction engineering, we use reactive flow simulations and magnetic resonance imaging to investigate the processes in catalytic reactors. 

Dielektrophorese

Separation technology

We are investigating the separation of technical particle systems according to shape and material using dielectrophoresis. In contrast to most applications, our goal is upscaling, i.e., throughput on an industrial scale.

Papierschaumplatte

Upcycling

In the field of upcycling, we use paper dust and steel mill slag to produce sustainable insulation materials.
