The international chemical engineering community has an annual award lecture, the Danckwerts lecture, named to commemorate Peter V. Danckwerts who was the second professor of chemical engineering at the University of Cambridge, founding editor of the journal “Chemical Engineering Science”, and originator of some of the theoretical approaches which are central to chemical engineering (including residence time theory, which has applications in material flow accounting). The lecture is sponsored by the European Federation of Chemical Engineering (EFCE), the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) and Elsevier (publishers of Chemical Engineering Science).
Presentation:
Chemical Engineering and Kinetics: A Pas de Deux of Theory And Experiment
Below, Guy Marine sat down with AIChE's Stephanie Orvoine-Couvrette to discuss his lecture.
