IMPRS for Systems and Process Engineering for a Sustainable Chemical Production

Our International Max Planck Research School SysProSus is a joint initiative of the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics of Complex Technical Systems and the Otto von Guericke University in Magdeburg. It provides high-level scientific training and supports PhD projects which investigate new methodological approaches for the systematic replacement of fossil raw materials in chemical production by renewable carbon sources, in particular biogenic residues and plastic waste.

Join us in shaping the future of sustainable chemical production

Call for PhDs open until February 16, 2025 more

IMPRS for Advanced Methods in Process and Systems Engineering

September 2007 - August 2025

18 years of successful operation are coming slowly to an end. Since 2007, we support PhD projects which combine cutting-edge mathematical and systems-oriented engineering research, are driven by challenging questions arising from the analysis, design and optimization of chemical and biochemical processes. The third and last funding period of the joint initiative from the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics of Complex Technical Systems and the Otto von Guericke University in Magdeburg will end in August 2025.

Dr.-Ing. Ronny Tobias Zimmermann is <em>Best Doctoral Student 2024 of the Faculty of Process and Systems Engineering</em>

His pellet-shaped core-shell catalysts can be integrated into existing Power-to-X systems without any additional equipment. This makes them an economically attractive option for renewable energy storage on the gigawatt scale. more
