Institute of Chemical and Electrochemical Process Engineering – Clausthal University of Technology

Welcome to the LinkedIn page of the Institute for Chemical and Electrochemical Process Engineering (ICVT). Our mission is to develop innovative and environmentally friendly concepts for new-generation energy systems and chemical industry of tomorrow. Both in research and education we focus on the development of porous catalysts and electrodes, as well as their use in reactors for chemical and electrochemical processes. Our goal is to design and optimize such modern reactor-catalyst systems by integrating experimental investigations with advanced digital tools for modeling and simulation. The research focuses on: - Electrolysis processes (alkaline water electrolysis, alkaline membrane electrolysis, chlor-alkali electrolysis, CO2 electrolysis); - Synthesis gas reactions (ammonia synthesis, ammonia decomposition, methanation of CO2); - Battery technologies (redox flow batteries, zinc-air batteries); - Heterogeneous catalysis (production, characterization and shaping of solid catalysts); - Gas-diffusion electrodes and membrane electrode assemblies (porous electrodes for gas consuming or evolving electrochemical processes); - Spatially resolved measurements (fiber-optic temperature measurement, reference electrodes, potential probes); - Modeling of reactors (design, optimization, dynamic operation).
