The key measure to mitigate climate change is the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Hereby, energy-intensive industry plays a key role due to ...

Global greenhouse gas emissions significantly accelerate climate change and adversely affect life on earth. To mitigate these effects, greenhouse g...

In recent years, the conversion of CO2 to basic chemicals with one carbon atom (C1-chemicals) such as methane and methanol has gained increasing in...

Ever since humans have existed, they have impacted the earth in many different ways (Redman, 1999). Currently, important impacts are associated wit...

Diffusion and liquid-liquid equilibria (LLE) data are of major importance for the design of chemical processes as, e.g., extraction. Unfortunately,...

The global demand for cooling increases and poses a challenge for the stability of electrical grids and the emission targets. Thermally-driven adso...

The synthesis of energy systems is a complex task, since a plethora of conditions needs to be regarded during decision making. Thus, mathematical o...

Diffusion is the rate-limiting mass transport step in many (bio)chemical processes. Diffusion data is therefore necessary to design unit operations...

Plastics are on the rise to conquer every area of modern human life but lead to increased pollution of nature, enormous oil consumption, and large-...

The design and optimization of complex chemical processes is a key challenge in chemical engineering and requires knowledge of the underlying kinet...

In recent years, spectroscopy has developed into an increasingly valuable tool to determine the composition of mixtures; for scientific questions a...

Climate change mitigation requires a massive reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and even negative emissions in the near future. To achieve...

Adsorption energy systems can be driven by thermal energy from waste heat or the sun and thereby allow reducing fossil energy consumption and thus ...

The accurate prediction of reaction kinetics data, e.g., reaction rate constants, for the microgel synthesis is highly desired because its usage in...
