Our research interests lie in the area of chemical reaction engineering, in particular in experimental, theoretical, and numerical investigations of heterogeneous (gas/liquid/solid) reaction systems for the synthesis of chemical and materials, the reduction of pollutant emissions and energy conversion. The work focuses on bridging the gap between surface science and heterogeneous catalysis as well as on understanding the interactions between chemical reactions and transport phenomena in chemical reactors and combustion systems. This approach is based on modern experimental investigations of the elementary processes in the gas phase and on the solid surface and further on measurements of the behavior of the entire reactor. The research also focuses on the development and application of computational tools for the numerical simulation of chemically reacting flows in laboratory experiments and in technical reactors under industrial conditions.
