It is considered that the field will be upgraded by introducing knowledge in other fields, extended to even more applications by generalizing the relevant methods, and unified to, at least covered by, the complexity science. Transdisciplinarity is necessary to cope with this challenge.展开更多

Introduction Supported by the Sino-German Center for Research Promotion, and organized jointly by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) and the German Research Foundation (DFG), the third Sino-German workshop on particle fluid systems was held on Oct. 24-31, 2004 in Beijing, China, following the two previous successful workshops held on Aug. 30-31,1999 in Hamburg, Germany (Li and Werther, Chem. Eng. Technol., 23(4), 378, 2000) and May 18-19, 2001 in Beijing, China (Li, Ge, Werther and Bruhns, Chem. Eng. Technol., 24(11), 1097, 2001). Thirty-one scientists from China, Germany, Japan and The Netherlands came together for interdisciplinary discussion over the core problem of multi-phase reaction systems in the name of "Chemical and Physical Interactions between Particles and Fluids".展开更多
