Process Engineering researchers and students recently attended the 29th European Symposium on Applied Thermodynamics in Bucharest, Romania.

Dr Jamie Cripwell (pictured above, right) and Ms Sonja Smith (pictured above, middle) received the Soft Matter poster prize for their poster, “Comparing the holistic predictive strength of different SAFT Variants”. Jamie is a postdoctoral fellow in the Separations Technology Research Group and Sonja recently graduated with a master’s degree (cum laude) from the department under the supervision of Prof Cara Schwarz and Prof Andre Burger (pictured above, left). Professor Hansie Knoetze and Prof Cara Schwarz also attended the conference.
