Hanns Hofmann Award
The Hanns Hofmann Award winner 2024 is Dr. Philipp Röse, Junior Research Group Leader, Electrocatalysis, KIT, Institut für Angewandte Materialien - Elektrochemische Technologien.
The award is endowed with a cash prize of € 2,000 and a certificate.
The Hanns Hofmann Prize has been awarded since 2008 to promote young scientists in the field of chemical reaction engineering. It is aimed at young scientists who have completed their doctoral thesis and whose research work already demonstrates their own scientific profile.
Young Talent Award
In 2024, Ahmet Celik was awarded with the Young Talent Award for his brilliant lecture on the topic "Process Development of Climate-Friendly Hydrogen Production by Pyrolysis of Methane and Biogas: From Reaction Engineering to Techno-Economic Studies".
The Young Talent Award is endowed with 500 € and a free conference participation.
This year, the award was sponsored by Dr. Olaf Wachsen Consulting & Training, Garching an der Alz. The Awardee of the "Young Talent Award" was selected from the best lecturers by a jury of members of the Early Career Reaction Engineers (NaWuReT).
