Material Design

This research focus on material design includes the development of novel methods for the targeted production of inorganic and organic selective auxiliary materials for thermal separation technology such as extraction agents, membranes and adsorbents. The focus here is on the characterization of material parameters and performance parameters as well as their use in basic thermal operations and the experimental determination of phase equilibria, kinetic parameters and fluid dynamic parameters as well as the modelling and simulation of basic operations in the overall processes of thermal separation technology, just like modern material concepts with the aim of process intensification.

Ein Diagramm vergleicht drei verschiedene mathematische Modelle (linear, parabolisch 2. Ordnung und parabolisch 4. Ordnung) zur Beschreibung einer Funktion epsilon(r) über den Radius (r) in Mikrometern. Die Kurven sind als Linien in verschiedenen Farben dargestellt: Rot für linear, Blau für 2. Ordnung parabolisch und Grün für 4. Ordnung parabolisch. Die x-Achse zeigt r in Mikrometern, und die y-Achse zeigt epsilon(r).
