The ISAPS institute deals with questions of applied research in the field of porous media. These concern analyses of porous media, flow through porous media, and manufacturing of porous media. Topics of interest ranges from technical applications (e.g. filters, fuel cells, catalysts, paper and printing technology), to medical applications (e.g. brain tumor treatment, patient-specific treatment, SARS-CoV2 protective masks) to environmental applications (e.g. geothermal energy, underground CO2 storage).
