CTV contributions
- Oral presentation – Prof. Jakob Burger\ Prof. Burger presented recent work on the design of a novel process for producing synthetic diesel substitutes from formaldehyde and n-/iso-butanol. The talk offered insights into new approaches to sustainable fuel production.
- Poster presentation – Dominik Groh\ “Ex-situ Mineral Trapping in River Water as a Negative Emission Technology: Experimental Investigation and Modeling of the Reactive Gas–Liquid–Solid Equilibrium.”\ Groh shared experimental and modeling results on mineral trapping of CO₂ in natural river water.
About PPEPPD
PPEPPD is a leading platform where academic and industrial researchers exchange knowledge on thermodynamic properties and phase equilibria—fundamental to the design of advanced products and processes. Thermodynamics remains the driving force and central theme of the event.
