Strathmann, Heinrich
Professor Heiner Strathmann is an Emeritus Professor of Chemical Engineering at the University of Stuttgart, Germany. Professor Strathmann worked in industry both in the USA and Germany, on the development of membranes and their applications. He held academic posts at the Universities of Tübingen, Germany, Twente, the Netherland and Stuttgarts, Germany. Professor Strathmann has authored over 200 publications, including 35 patents, penned more than 10 monographs on membrane technology and is on the editorial board of several journals. Professor Strathmann's work has been recognised through many awards, including the Willy Hager Medaille and the Richard Barrer Price.

Heinrich Strathmann is Professor Emeritus of the University of Twente, The Netherlands. He obtained his basic education in Physical Chemistry at the University of Darmstadt in Germany where he received his Dr.-Ing. in 1965. He worked for several years in the membrane based industry in the United States and in Germany. He is also Associate Professor at the University of Stuttgart and Honorary Prrofessor at South China Central University.
Dr. Strathmann is on the editorial board of various scientific journals and is author of three books on membrane science and technology. In 2007 he was awarded by the European Membrane Society with the R.M. Barrer Price.
