Power plant chemistry colloquium

The Department of Chemistry is reviving a traditional event in Zittau.

On September 22 and 23, 2016, speakers will meet at Haus IV to discuss water treatment issues. The spectrum ranges from reports from operational practice to new developments from renowned research institutions.
