Carl Wagner Medal of Excellence in Electrochemical Engineering

The Working Party on Electrochemical Engineering is pleased to announce the Carl Wagner Medal of Excellence in Electrochemical Engineering 2008.

The Carl Wagner Medal of Excellence in Electrochemical Engineering is awarded every three years by the Working Party on Electrochemical Engineering of the European Federation of Chemical Engineering to a European researcher under the age of 35 for outstanding contributions to research in applied electrochemistry or electrochemical engineering .

The Carl Wagner Medal of Excellence in Electrochemical Engineering this year will be presented at the 8th European Symposium on Electrochemical Engineering (Prague, Czech Republic 25 - 28 August 2008), an event sponsored by ISE Division 5, where the recipient of the medal will be invited to give a lecture.
