Prof. Wilhelm Schwieger from the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität visits the CRC SMART Reactors

In his seminar, starting with a historical overview of zeolite-based composites, the development from the glass/zeolite based composites via the foam based/zeolite materials to the metal/zeolite based structured reactors with the combined advantage of the resulting hierarchical organized porosity and optimized heat transfer properties was shown. The advantages of such hierarchical structured material especially for catalytic applications were demonstrated.
