Prof. Stefan Heinrich received the 2025 Shell Thomas Baron Award in Fluid-Particle Systems

2025 Shell Thomas Baron Award for Stefan Heinrich

The award, given by the Particle Technology Forum at the 2025 AIChE Annual Meeting in Boston, recognizes a "recent outstanding scientific/technical accomplishment which has made a significant impact in the field of fluid-particle systems or in a related field with potential for cross fertilization."

In his award lecture titled “Challenges in Phase Tracking of Gas-Solids Fluidized Beds and Particle Formulation via Fluidized Bed Spray Granulation”, our CRC member Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Prof. E.h. Dr. h.c. Stefan Heinrich from the Institute of Solids Process Engineering and Particle Technology at TUHH presented groundbreaking insights into phase tracking in gas-solids systems and advances in particle formulation via spray granulation.

Congratulations on this honor from the whole CRC team!

The Shell Global Solutions Thomas Baron Award in Fluid-Particle Systems is awarded yearly by the Particle Technology Forum (PTF) of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE).
