The CampusTag (open day) on January 9th offered valuable information and exciting experiments.

For the Institute of Energy Process Engineering and Chemical Engineering (IEC), M.Sc. Michaela Nguyen and M.Sc. Philip Rößger were on site, answering your questions and helding many consultations about the choice of study location and subject.

Of particular interest was the new hands-on experiment “A fluidized bed you can touch”, which illustrates the principle of fluidization. In a box full of sand, a fluidized bed is created with the help of pressurized air.  Now, the solid behaves like a liquid. This phenomenon has a lot of advantages in technical applications due to the good mass and heat transfer.

You haven’t tried it yet? Take the chance at our next CampusTag in May!
