Location & approach

By Car

The campus of the Technical University of Dortmund is located near the freeway junction Dortmund West, where the Sauerland line A45 crosses the Ruhr expressway B1/A40. The Dortmund-Eichlinghofen exit on the A45 leads to the South Campus, the Dortmund-Dorstfeld exit on the A40 leads to the North Campus. The university is signposted at both exits.

By bus and train

The "Dortmund Universität" S-Bahn station is located directly on the North Campus. From there, the S-Bahn line S1 runs every 15 or 30 minutes to Dortmund main station and in the opposite direction to Düsseldorf main station via Bochum, Essen and Duisburg. In addition, the university can be reached by bus lines 445, 447 and 462. Timetable information can be found on the homepage of the Rhine-Ruhr Transport Association, and DSW21 also offer an interactive route network map.

The H-Bahn

One of the landmarks of the TU Dortmund is the H-Bahn. Line 1 runs every 10 minutes between Dortmund Eichlinghofen and the Technology Center via Campus South and Dortmund University S, while Line 2 commutes every 5 minutes between Campus North and Campus South. It covers this distance in two minutes.

By Airplane

From Dortmund Airport, the AirportExpress takes just over 20 minutes to Dortmund's main train station, and from there, the S-Bahn takes you to the university. A wider range of international flight connections is offered by Düsseldorf Airport, about 60 kilometers away, which can be reached directly by S-Bahn from the university's train station.

Field of Research

A key challenge impeding the transition of biocatalytic routes to full-scale production is the lack of cost-efficient purification of enzymes. The Tunable Aqueous Polymer Phase Impregnated Resins (TAPPIR^®)-Technology is a novel approach for the purification of biomolecules, where one Aqueous Two Phase Extraction (ATPE) phase is immobilized in porous resins.

In this work within the NESEP project, the TAPPIR^®-Technology will be incorporated in a column, transforming the current batch operated separation to a continuous flow-through separation. Thus the limitations of ATPE for industrial applications can be overcome and an efficient and environmentally benign purification technology for the downstream processing of enzymes will be provided.
