Trust Fund” which has been created from donations by friends and
colleagues.

The SVS Lectureship is awarded every second year to an engineer-scientist,
who has produced original and fundamentally important results in some
R&D field within the broader context of chemical engineering. Selection
of the most deserving candidate, each time, is made on an international
basis and strictly on grounds of merit. All candidates should be younger
than 40 years of age on the day of the SVS Lecture.
Every second year (starting in 2005) the Recipient of the SVS Lectureship

This conference is held every two years (in the odd numbered years)
