John M. Prausnitz Award
The John Prausnitz Award was established in 1998, on the occasion of the 8th PPEPPD conference, that took place at Nordwijkerhout, The Netherlands. The distinction is given to a scientist for his/her outstanding contribution in the field of physical properties and phase equilibria for product and process design.
The International Organizing Committee of PPEPPD 2016 is happy to announce that the seventh John M. Prausnitz Award
for Outstanding Achievements in Applied Chemical Thermodynamics will be awarded to Professor Doros N. Theodorou,
from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, School of Chemical Engineering, National Technical University of Athens, Greece. Professor Theodorou is honored for his research accomplishments in paradigm-shifting modeling and computer simulation methods for understanding and predicting properties of materials from their chemical constitution, with particular emphasis on amorphous polymers and zeolites, which are used widely in academia and industry.
