Biography
My name is Dirk. I started to study process engineering at the Otto von Guericke University in Magdeburg, Germany, in 2009. My university has a strong connection to local industries which makes it very attractive to students. In 2014, while I was looking for a suitable theme for my Master thesis, I went on a university seminar trip to Dow’s PET plant in Schkopau/Saxony-Anhalt. . Everyone knows about PET as it’s used for the production of plastic bottles. However, to see how such a raw material is made was really fascinating.
