Topic 10
Influence of Solvent mixtures on esterification reactions
About the topic:
The project’s aim is to gain a better improve the efficiency of biochemical and chemical reactions and separation tasks. One way to do it is by using specially designed solvent mixtures. We must understand the role of solvation by solvent mixtures on reactions and separations.
What they are looking for in students:
Through this solvation student challenge program, we invite experimental researchers MSc in Solvation Science, Chemical Engineering, Bioengineering, Chemistry, Biomolecular Chemistry, Physics.
