PhD from Christian Walter

His presentation entitled “Analysis of wire mesh-based micro-heat exchangers for chemical reaction technology” focused on the presentation of the so-called "Thermogewebe" and the impressive investigation of evaporation dynamics using thermography.

A particular highlight of the evening was the traditional doctoral examination, which was conducted by former colleagues from the Institute of Chemical Process Engineering at the University of Stuttgart. In a series of entertaining games, he had to show that he can also score outside the scientific context.
For example, he used his many years of experience at Pause & Play to solve the escape room specially set up in the ICVT's archive. He was also able to impress with the production of a wire mesh on a model loom. Only in the tennis tic-tac-toe did he surprisingly have to admit defeat to Prof. Nieken.

The numerous guests created a great atmosphere and made the evening something special. Now the focus is back on ChemTherm - and perhaps the thermal fabrics will be used there again soon.
