The DECHEMA/VDI "Fluid Dynamics and Separation Technology" Section covers processes that take place in fluid phases and are driven by mass and heat transfer. The topics include the thermodynamic and fluid dynamic fundamentals for process and apparatus design, in particular for processes for the separation of chemically and biotechnologically produced substances as well as the associated techniques for modeling (computational fluid dynamics methods, etc.) of material properties and processes. They are aimed at both classic unit operations and entire production chains.
As a junior group of the DECHEMA/VDI Section Fluid Dynamics and Separation Technology, we promote the professional exchange and networking of new members within the section. In this way we want to lay the foundation for a dynamic community and create opportunities for the personal development of young talents.
Young is not a measure of age. Our activities are aimed at group leaders, interested doctoral students in the final phase of their doctorate and young professionals at the beginning of their career in the field of fluid dynamics and separation technology. We want to create a platform to connect already active members and interested young professionals from industry and academia.
For a successful exchange, we will organize different event formats, including digital as well as face-to-face events. Information will be announced on the website as soon as it becomes more concrete.
If you would like to take part, please get in touch with us. You can join our mailing list for regular information about future events.
YoungFluidSeps can also be found on Linkedin.
Join us for the YoungFluidSeps Field Trip 2025 at Evonik Chemiepark Marl!
Take the chance to visit one of Germany’s largest chemical sites and connect with fellow early-career engineers from the YoungFluidSeps community. The program includes expert talks, guided tours, and networking sessions in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

The specialist section sees its task in the exchange of experience across committee boundaries, especially in the definition of research and development approaches via the specialist groups, the identification of "white spots" in the research landscape and in the contribution of the specialist section's expertise to adjacent fields of application. Cooperation with international specialist organizations is also supported by the specialist section.
