2016|17 Annual Report Fraunhofer IGB

COMPETENCES INSTITUTE OF INTERFACIAL PROCESS ENGI- NEERING AND PLASMA TECHNOLOGY IGVP The Institute of Interfacial Process Engineering and Plasma Technology IGVP is part of the Faculty of Energy Technol- ogy, Process Engineering and Biological Engineering of the University of Stuttgart. State-of-the-art labs, technical plants and workshops are available at the three IGVP facilities in Nobelstrasse 12, Allmandring 5b, and Pfaffenwaldring 31 for interdisciplinary engineering and natural scientiic research. In 2016, the research budget accounted for 2.57 million euros. At the end of that year, a staff of 75 scientiic, technical and administrative employees, among them 40 doctoral students, worked at the institute. In addition, 55 students have com- pleted their master or bachelor thesis at the IGVP. Thematic focus Nanomaterials and nanotechnology Biomaterials and biotechnology Renewable raw materials, industrial biotechnology, and bioenergy Plasma technology and plasma physics Contact Research Institute of Interfacial Process Engineering and The IGVP focuses on the design of functional materials Plasma Technology IGVP and that of their interfaces and surfaces, on the biological interactions at these interfaces as well as on the development and engineering of interfacially driven processes. In plasma technology, low-temperature plasmas are applied for surface activation, microwaves for stabilization of high-temperature plasmas in fusion-related plasma physics, and the dynamic properties of plasmas and electromagnetic waves are analyzed and simulated. Cooperation of the IGVP with Fraunhofer IGB makes it possible to pursue projects from basic research to application. Teaching The IGVP is very actively involved in the teaching of master and bachelor study programs at Stuttgart University such as Process Engineering, Medical Engineering, Technical Biology, Energy Technology, Renewable Energy Engineering, Environ- mental Engineering, WASTE, etc. 4 2 University of Stuttgart Pfaffenwaldring 31 | 70569 Stuttgart | Germany Fax +49 711 970-4006 | www.igvp.uni-stuttgart.de apl.
