Excursion of the TC1-Lecture to BASF in Ludwigshafen

2024/07/26

On July 26, an excursion to the BASF Verbund site in Ludwigshafen took place as part of the TC1 lecture led by Dr. Kristina Zentel.

The participants of the excursion were given a general introduction to the company during a guided tour of the visitor center and a subsequent bus tour of the Ludwigshafen site. The group then had the opportunity to visit the plant for the production of LDPE waxes and its compressors. Finally, after a joint lunch break, the participants were introduced to various fields of work at BASF in the areas of research & development, recycling, emulsion polymerization, safety technology and modelling.

Many thanks to Sascha Petzold and BASF for the invitation and the opportunity to get to know these diverse topics!
