We are delighted to announce our eighth webinar session! It will take place on Thursday, 28 May at 16:00 CEST on YouTube Live. We are pleased to welcome our researcher and PI Michael Felderhoff, from the Max-Planck-Institut für Kohlenforschung, in Germany. In this webinar, he will discuss the challenges involved in scaling up mechanochemical transformations from the milligram to kilogram scale, with a particular focus on the use of ball mills. For the Q&A session, we will also be joined by Jan-Hendrik Schöbel, postdoctoral research scientist at the same institution.
Michael Felderhoff is a research group leader at the German institution. His research focuses on material development for energy and hydrogen storage, as well as the application of mechanochemistry for the synthesis and upscaling of environmentally friendly and solvent-free chemical processes. As a member of the IMPACTIVE project, he works on transferring syntheses from laboratory scale to kilogram scale using various types of ball mills.

On the other hand, Jan-Hendrik Schöbel began his career at RWTH Aachen University, where he earned his PhD in organic chemistry, focusing on the development of heterocyclic and bioactive sulphur compounds. He is currently a member of Felderhoff’s group. As part of the IMPACTIVE project, his primary focus is on scaling up processes from laboratory to larger scales using diverse milling technologies.
This is the last instalment in our webinar series, where we talk about mechanochemistry, green chemistry and much more! Missed our previous webinars? No problem, you can still access them on the IMPACTIVE YouTube channel.
