9th Expert Forum on Hydrothermal Processes

On 9–10 June 2026, the DBFZ in Leipzig will host the 9th Expert Forum on Hydrothermal Processes. The international forum (conference language: English) covers the full value chain of hydrothermal conversion – from feedstock, processes and technologies to products, framework conditions and legal aspects. This year’s focus includes recent developments in hydrothermal liquefaction, the hydrothermal synthesis of sustainable chemicals, and hydrothermal biomass pretreatment. Moreover, contributions addressing solutions for the still unsolved challenge of undesired aqueous by-products are highly welcome.
