The Institute for Air and Refrigeration Technology ( ILK Dresden ) is an independent, non-university research institution in the legal form of a non-profit company mbH. The ILK Dresden conducts industry- related research , development and technology transfer in the specialist fields and application areas of air and refrigeration technology as well as other applied technologies, including the corresponding scientific and technological areas.

history

After the division of the Institute for Chemical and Refrigeration Equipment in 1963, the Institute for Air and Refrigeration Technology was founded in the GDR by recruiting young engineers until 1964 . The research and development tasks of the ILK were very diverse and not only focused on the more than 20 companies of the combine air and refrigeration technology, but also on all companies in the branch, but also on users in industry, agriculture and cultural institutions. This broad range of activities resulted in an integration philosophy for air and refrigeration technology, from cryotechnology to refrigeration and air conditioning technology to material and filter technology , which has survived all the centralization confusions of the GDR. After the fall of the Berlin Wall, a non-profit research company was founded in 1990.

The sole shareholder of the ILK Dresden is the non-profit association for the promotion of air and refrigeration technology. The purpose of the association is to promote the dissemination of the latest scientific achievements in the ILK specialist areas as well as the promotion of young scientists.

Research and Development

The ILK Dresden comprises different technology areas in which research and development work is carried out in an interdisciplinary team of engineers, chemists and physicists.
