Sustainability has become one of the greatest scientific challenges of our time. Redesigning the chemical value chain with sustainable reactions and non-fossil feedstocks, closing cycles in energy storage and digitalization demand interdisciplinary scientific excellence.
The NaWuReT-YounGeCatS-Summerschool 2022 aims to bring together young scientists from reaction engineering and catalysis with experts from industry and academia to work on sustainable chemistry, energy storage and digitalization. Let’s make a change together!

The summerschool is dedicated to interested PhD students and PostDocs in an early phase.
We would like to invite national and international PhD students to the summerschool, therefore the whole programme will be held in English.
We would like to get a short overview on your motivation and topic. Please provide a short application/abstract connecting your scientific work with the summerschool topics (max. 350 words). What are your expectations and which skills would you like to improve?
The summerschool will include a Poster-Session. There are some guidelines for the poster preparation:
The poster should be intelligible in itself. The poster is divided in subsections, which are equivalent to an introduction section, a results section and finishes with a conclusion and/or outlook.
The specifications for the poster are similar to poster sessions at conferences:
Members of DECHEMA or GeCats* | Non-members |
300€ | 320€ |
Registration fee includes a package with VAT.
*Personal DECHEMA-, VDI-GVC-members and EFC/EFCE passport holders
Registration is possible until 6th May 2022 (extended time). You will receive an email with a booking confirmation. The invoice and payment confirmation can be downloaded from the conference system as a PDF file.
The registration has the following steps:
The registration fees include the summerschool participation, workshops and food & beverages during coffee and lunch breaks and dinner (poster session and social evening).
Deadline for registration is 6th May 2022 .
Cancellations are only accepted in writing.
Christian Hasse is professor for Simulation of reactive Thermo-Fluid Systems at the Technical University of Darmstadt, Germany. His group focuses on modeling and simulation of thermo-fluid dynamic processes like turbulence-chemistry interaction, population balance dynamics or fluid-wall interactions in mechanical and chemical process engineering. Typical technical applications include clean energy conversion, chemical reactors and catalysts.
Hendrik Goßler is head of the group “Digitalization” at the Institute for Chemical Technology and Polymer Chemistry. With his group he works on numerical simulation and optimization of reactive flows and catalytic processes. Furthermore, he is founder of the software and consulting company Omegadot, which provides software and solutions for digitalization in chemical technology.
Ivana Jevtovikj is a project manager in R&D solutions for chemical and petrochemical applications at hte GmbH. Furthermore, she is the technical lead of an early-phase research laboratory with focus on heterogeneous catalysis. Her research interests revolve around alternative concepts for material synthesis, high-throughput experimentation and testing for catalytic applications.
Anna Pougin is head of the group Materials for Hydrogen Infrastructure at Creavis, the strategic innovation hub of Evonik. She is incubating specialty chemical product innovations to enable an upscaled hydrogen economy. She is also bundling activities within Evonik that support the industry’s effort to defossilize their business, such as membranes, catalysts, and high-performance polymer materials.
Thomas Seidensticker is research group leader at the Chair of Industrial Chemistry at the Technical University of Dortmund. His group “Renewlysis” works on homogeneous transition metal catalysis for the functionalization of unsaturated oleochemicals. Furthermore, his research focuses on liquid multiphase systems, integrated catalyst recycling for continuous processes and selective product crystallization.
