Matthias Kraume

Prof. Matthias Kraume is a Professor at the Technical University of Berlin (TU Berlin), affiliated with Faculty III - Process Sciences and the Institute of Process Engineering, specifically leading the FG Verfahrenstechnik research group. His research focuses on CFD simulation, multiphase processes, membrane bioreactors, and reactor design, with contributions to the Collaborative Research Centre InPROMPT (2009).

He served as a former member of the UniCat Executive Board (2012–2017), contributing to Research Fields D1/D2 (2012–2017) and C2/C3/C4 (2007–2011). His work spans projects like multiphase processes, biological systems, and renewable resources optimization. Notably, he coordinated the InPROMPT project on integrated fluid multiphase systems.

Publications emphasize CFD-DEM coupling, reactor optimization, and biocatalyst screening. His group’s work has been recognized through awards for students like Gregor Wehinger, who became a junior professor under his mentorship. Kraume’s team collaborates on energy-efficient biogas systems, viscoelastic fluid dynamics, and automated process control in stirred reactors.

Current research includes advanced CFD modeling for fluidized beds, bioreactor design, and sustainable process intensification. He oversees lab activities at TU Berlin’s FG Verfahrenstechnik, with affiliations to industry partnerships for biogas and catalytic technologies.
