Martin Wolke

Martin Wolke serves as a Research Assistant at the Institute for Chemical and Thermal Process Engineering (ICTV) within the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at Technische Universität Braunschweig. He works under the supervision of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Stephan Scholl and collaborates with senior researchers including Dr.-Ing. Wolfgang Augustin.

His research interests span chemical engineering with specific focus on separation processes, distillation efficiency, and sustainable battery recycling technologies. His work examines how polymer additives affect vapor-liquid equilibrium and separation efficiency in distillation systems, particularly with non-volatile components and elevated feed viscosities.

Wolke contributes to the BMWI-funded HVBatCycle project focused on HV battery recycling and resynthesis processes, specifically investigating electrolyte recycling pathways. His publication record demonstrates expertise in experimental measurement techniques for separation efficiency under challenging process conditions.

As an educator, he supervises the Educational Lab 'Phase Equilibria' and teaches the 'Ionic Liquids' course, contributing to both practical and theoretical components of chemical engineering education at TU Braunschweig.

His laboratory work leverages the university's specialized facilities for thermal process engineering, with potential applications in industrial separation processes and sustainable battery material cycles.
