Cooperation with our Partners

Cooperations with partners from industry and science play an essential role within our working group. Our partners are located all over the world. In the following some examples of this cooperation are shown.

Seminar week in Stenungsund 2019

From 25th to 28th June 2019, the Borealis AG invited the working group to its industrial site in Stenungsund. In short presentations, the members of the working group presented their current research progress, which was the starting point for questions and discussion. The highlight was a tour of the cracker and the world-scale LD 5 plant for the production of LDPE. Special thanks to Borealis AG and Denis Yalalov for making the excursion possible and for their hospitality.

International teams design LDPE plant

During the project planning course in winter term 2015/2016, students from various universities designed a plant for the production of LDPE as well as the low-temperature distillation for the processing of the required ethene. In the following excursion the students had the opportunity to present their results to the cooperation partner Saudi Basic Industries Corporation. In this context, an LDPE plant and a steam cracker at the site Geleen/Netherlands were visited. We thank Saudi Basic Industries Corporation for the great support and hospitality.
