Life Cycle Assessment
Major research interests
- Process development and process analysis for material and energy conversion
- Chemical reaction engineering / electrochemical processes (membrane reactors), cyclic processes for H2 and CO production, biomass chemical valorisation (focus on algae biomass), biofuel production
- Catalysis in chemical process engineering
- Sustainability analysis (LCA) and process optimisation
Possible research projects (not exhaustive)
- Design of solvent-based depolymerization processes for mixed plastics
(Collaboration partners: Prof. Sundmacher, Prof. Hamel, Prof. von Langermann) - Flux-balance and sustainability analysis of the carbon metabolism(s) of the chemical industry
(Collaboration partners: Prof. Sundmacher, Dr. Klamt)
