Gabriele Sadowski

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gabriele Sadowski (* February 18, 1964 as Gabriele Hannich in Kleinmachnow ) is a German chemist and holds the chair for thermodynamics at the Faculty of Biological and Chemical Engineering at the Technical University of Dortmund .

Career

Sadowski studied chemistry at the Technical University of Leuna-Merseburg from 1982 to 1987 . After completing his doctoral thesis from 1987 to 1991, Sadowski initially worked for a short time as a research assistant at the Institute for Water, Soil and Air Hygiene (BGA). She then switched to the TU Berlin as an assistant in the field of thermodynamics and thermal process engineering . In 2000 she completed her habilitation on the subject of “Thermodynamics of Polymer Solutions”. In 2001 she was offered the chair of thermodynamics at the University of Dortmund, after she had already taken over the position of professor that had become vacant after Siegfried Schulz had retired the previous year . In 2004 she was offered a position at the University of Hanover, which she refused.

In 2009 she was accepted into the North Rhine-Westphalian Academy of Sciences and the Arts . Sadowski is also a member of the German Academy of Science and Engineering (Acatech) .

Focus of work

Sadowski works

  • on the modeling of thermodynamic properties on a molecular basis, here the further development of the equation of state "Perturbed-Chain SAFT" should be mentioned,
  • in the modeling of polymer and copolymer systems,
  • in the absorption and diffusion in polymers,
  • on the measurement and modeling of thermodynamic properties of systems with biological molecules ( proteins , osmolytes),
  • in the experimental determination and modeling of solids solubilities
  • in the crystallization of pharmaceuticals as well
  • on down-stream processing in biotechnology

Honors

In 1999 Sadowski received the Arnold Eucken Prize from the Society for Process Engineering and Chemical Engineering of the VDI and in 2002 the “Young Faculty Grant” from DuPont . In 2011 she was one of the ten scientists who were awarded the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize, which is the most prestigious international research award. In May 2020, the European Federation of Chemical Engineering EFCE announced that Sadowski had been presented with the “Distinguished Lecture Award in Thermodynamics and Transport Phenoma”. The award ceremony will take place in July 2021 as part of the 31st Symposium on Applied Thermodynamics (ESAT) in Paris.
