Recommended reading for process, pharma and chemical engineers, chemists in industry, and those working in the pharmaceutical, food, cosmetics, dyes and pigments industries.

Prof. Ulrich Brockel studied Chemical Engineering at the Technical University of Karlsruhe, and finished his doctorate at the Institute of Mechanical Engineering in 1991. After his industrial carreer at the BASF process engineering department - heading a team responsible for agglomeration and product design of solids - he became Professor at the University of Applied Sciences Trier in 2000. He is member of APV (Arbeitsgemeinschaft fur Pharmazeutische Verfahrenstechnik), DECHEMA (Gesellschaft fur Chemische Technik und Biotechnologie, GVC (VDI-Gesellschaft Verfahrenstechnik und Chemieingenieurwesen), and he is co-chairing the section group "Product Design and Engineering" of the EFCE (European Federation of Chemical Engineering). Professor Brockel's work focuses on solids processing and plant design.

Dr. Gerhard Wagner studied Chemical Engineering at the Technical University of Munich. After gaining his PhD from the Technical University Munich, he worked as a scale up engineer in the chemical process development department of Hoffmann-La Roche in Basle, Switzerland. Currently he is responsible for the form development research and development department. Gerhard Wagner is member of the SPIN (Solid Processing Industrial Network) and the section group "Product Design and Engineering" within the EFCE.

Dr. Willi Meier studied Chemistry at the RWTH Aachen, where he gained his PhD in 1992. He is responsible for the international cooperation of the DECHEMA and he is coordinating the research activities of the section groups of the EFCE and the EFB (European Federation of Biotechnology).
