The horizontal, uniform gyratory motion of the ATLAS provides the highest performance per screen area available on the market, which means sharper separations, higher volume, exceptional screen cleaning, low dynamic force and unparalleled material spread-ability. Fines Intermediate Overs T he keynotes cover a wide range of topics and touch on areas of application like additive manufacturing or CO₂ reduction. The theme of PARTEC 2019 is “Particles for a better life”. More than 500 scien- tists and researchers are expect- ed to attend the English-language congress in Nuremberg. As one of the world's leading con- gresses for particle technology, PARTEC gathers the professional community in Nuremberg every three years. In almost all sectors of industry, the processing of powder and particles is an important pro- cess step, particularly for the pro- duction of foodstuffs, chemicals and pharmaceuticals. The findings of PARTEC researchersdeliverimprove- ments inmany areas of ourdaily life. “Our congress theme ‘Particles for a better life’ underscores this key role played by particle research,” says ProfessorStefanHeinrich, Chairman of PARTEC 2019. “In 2019, alongside traditional applications, we will also be focusing strongly on cutting- edge technologies e.g. from the life sciences, energy and environmental technology, or additive manufactur- ing. The congress will explore how particle technology can help these applications to progress.” Overview of keynotes The importance of particle technol- ogy for various sectors and future technologies is reflected in the six keynotes over the three days of the congress: • Prof. Dr. Alan W. Weimer, University of Colorado, USA: “Particle Functionalization by ALD: Fundamentals, Applications, and Path Forward” • Prof. Mojtaba Ghadiri, Univer- sity of Leeds, United Kingdom: “Dynamics of Cohesive Powder Flow” • Prof. Karen Hapgood, Deakin University, Australia: “Particle Technology in Additive Manu- facturing” • Prof. Jim Litster, University of Sheffield, United Kingdom: “Model Driven Design of Particulate Processes and Products – Applications in Pharmaceutical Manufacture and Beyond” • Prof. Dr.-Ing. Evangelos Tsotsas, Otto-von-Guericke- Universität Magdeburg, Germany: “Engineering of particles by spray drying and spray fluidized bed processes” • Prof. Hamid Arastoopour, Illinois Institute of Technology, USA: “Contribution of Particle Technology Research on CO₂ capture and reduction”  Text: NürnbergMesse GmbH Messezentrum D-90471 Nürnberg PARTEC 2019: Keynote speakers at congress for particle technology
