Profile:
EDUCATION
- Masters degree in Chemical Engineering, Vienna University of Technology, Vienna, Austria, Sept. 1999 - June 2000
- PhD in process simulation of flue gas cleaning technologies, Institute of Chemical Engineering, Vienna University of Technology, Vienna, Austria, Sept. 2000 - Oct. 2004
Research Interests:
Mathematical modeling and simulation as a tool for understanding and predicting physical/chemical phenomena: methods and
approaches, scopes and limitations, software tools.
PROCESS SIMULATION
Prediction and optimization of process performance (water treatment, flue gas cleaning, biogas processing, ?)
- tools in use: IPSEpro and stand alone C++ codes
COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS
Investigation of transport mechanisms and interactions with 'active walls' (membranes, catalysts, heat exchanger surfaces, ?)
- tools in use: OPENFoam and stand alone C++ codes
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
Modeling of physical properties of fluids and homogeneous/heterogeneous mixtures (water, gases, aqueous electrolyte systems,
protein solutions, ?) - tools in use: IPSEpro and stand alone C++ codes
