Design and Synthesis of Membrane Separation Processes provides a novel method of design and synthesis for membrane separation. While the main focus of the book is given to gas separation and pervaporation membranes, the theory has been developed in such a way that it is general and valid for any type of membrane. The method, which uses a graphical technique, allows one to calculate and visualize the change in composition of the retentate (non-permeate) phase. This graphical approach is based on Membrane Residue Curve Maps. One of the strengths of this approach is that it is exactly analogous to the method of Residue Curve Maps that has proved so successful in distillation system synthesis and design.

Edgar Award Winner for Best Mystery Novel: “Takes off like a Chinook and whisks you through a labyrinth non-stop until the final sentence” (Clive Cussler). Russian poet Boris Kotlikoff defected to the United States two years ago. He left with no state secrets; he is no threat to the Soviets in anyway; yet now he has become their prize hostage, buried alive somewhere in New York City. The US government, on the defensive as always, treads on cat feet. But it does not take into consideration the doggedness of Ben Leary, an agent with Immigration and Naturalization. They also close their eyes to a parallel search by Gus Geller, a hatchet man for the CIA. And the government isn’t even aware of Charlie Brewer, a discredited ex-CIA agent Geller puts in charge of the actual search. Will the vicious infighting among these three in a struggle against time and missed opportunities set up Kotlikoff as a doomed pawn? “Compelling . . . A kind of catch-22.” —Time
Die Leitung einer Hauptversammlung begegnet vielen Rechtsunsicherheiten, die das Verhalten des Versammlungsleiters einerseits besonders fehleranfallig machen, andererseits aber die Gefahr in sich bergen, dass Aktionarsrechte uber Gebuhr eingeschrankt werden. Dieses immanente Spannungsverhaltnis der Versammlungsleitung hat dazu beigetragen, dass insbesondere die Befugnis des Versammlungsleiters zur Zuruckweisung rechtswidriger Antrage, seine Abwahl und seine Haftung in den letzten Jahren in den Fokus deutscher Hauptversammlungen geruckt sind. An dieser Stelle setzt David Maximilian Langenbach an und leistet einen Beitrag zur sachgerechten Auflosung dieser Konfliktsituationen. Hinsichtlich einer Zuruckweisungsbefugnis und einer Abwahl entwickelt er Ansatze, mit deren Hilfe strittige Antrage interessengerecht gehandhabt werden konnen. Dabei zeigt er eine Haftung des Versammlungsleiters fur fehlerhaftes Verhalten auf.Die Arbeit wurde mit dem Fakultatspreis 2018 der Universitat zu Koln ausgezeichnet.
