Knowledge exchange, Collaboration and Testing: Integration of reactors for FPC's system

2024-08-08T16:48:52+01:00August 8th, 2024|Project News|

Partners from the University of Amsterdam, eChemicles, University of Szeged and SoHHytec spent time in Cologne, Germany at the DLR to help ensure the smooth integration and best results from the 3-reactor FlowPhotoChem system. Stefan Zondag and Tom Masson from the University of Amsterdam supported the preparation for the final experimental setup. Tamás Födi (eChemicles), Mohd Monis Ayyub (University of Szeged) on the one hand and Guilherme da Silveira Ribeiro Bruges Armas (SoHHytec) on the other hand came to DLR to pre-test the EC reactor and PEC reactor, respectively, and prepare them for integration into the FlowPhotoChem system. Additionally, Guilherme and [...]
