A priority programme of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) was conducted to investigate the thermophysical and thermochemical fundamentals relevant for process design in the chemical and petrochemical industry as well as for biotechnological and environmental process sciences. The priority programme comprised 27 projects in which researchers form various disciplines like applied thermodynamics, industrial chemistry, physical chemistry, process sciences, or biotechnology collaborated to solve some of the major problems of modern thermodynamics. The research results are exclusively documented in this book and cover topics like phase equilibrium in chemical reactive mixtures, in aqueous solutions of electrolytes, aqueous two-phase systems and polymer solutions, high pressure fluid phase equilibria, and microemulsion systems. The results contribute to a better understanding of important phase equilibrium phenomena and help to improve process models.
