35 participants from 11 countries accepted the invitation to attend the second interdisciplinary colloquium on Rotating Packed Beds (RPB) at TU Dortmund University.

The meeting was organized by Prof. Andrzej Górak and Dr. Jörg Koop, the head of the ROTOR group (High Gravity Technology Center Dortmund) at BCI, which researches process intensification with rotating machines. The participants (suppliers, users, developers as well as scientists) reported on the current trends in the design of the machines, news in industrial applications and of course results from research. The relevance of the technology was also demonstrated by the support of the event by ACCSESS, an EU-funded project focusing on CO2 capture, utilization and storage.
