The use of microtechnology in process engineering offers great potential for applications in the design, optimization and implementation of innovative chemical and biotechnological processes. The customized use of the technological advantages of the micro-scale, such as improved process safety and, due to the large specific surfaces and short transport paths, more intensive material and heat exchange, opens up new opportunities for process intensification and process routes which were hitherto not, or only at great expense, possible.
Contributions are requested on the following topics:
1) Microstructured Devices for Process Intensification
a) Reactors
b) Unit Operations
Topic 2: Structured Multiscale Devices (integrated in Topic 1)
3) Microsystems for Energy Generation and Distribution
4) Materials Aspects, Nanostructures and Nanoparticles
5) Characterization and Simulation of Microstructured Devices
6) Microstructured Devices as Tools in Chemical Research and Analytics
