is a Process Engineer for cracking furnaces at Linde Engineering in Munich, Germany. Since joining Linde Engineering in 2012, Dr. Delhomme-Neudecker has worked in R&D and in the company’s process design department for sustainable hydrocarbons, supporting the development of sustainable technologies (e.g., unconventional feedstocks and the electrification of processes) and working on cracking furnace design. She earned a PhD in chemical engineering from the Technical University of Munich.

is the Director of Chemical Technology Service at Linde Engineering in Munich. Dr. Schödel has worked for Linde Engineering for more than 30 yr in various functions, particularly in the development and optimization of processes, with a focus on hydrogen, syngas and petrochemical processes, gas purification and downstream processes. In 2012, she was named a fellow at Linde Engineering. Dr. Schödel earned a PhD in technical chemistry from the Technical University of Munich.

is a Senior Process Design Engineer for Linde Engineering in Munich. Since joining Linde Engineering in 2007, Dr. Tóta has worked in several functions relating to adsorption and membrane technologies and process design for sustainable hydrocarbons. His focus has been particularly on downstream separation, purification and upgrading technologies. He earned a PhD in chemical engineering from Otto von Guericke University of Magdeburg, Germany.

is the Group Lead of Process Design for cracking furnaces at Linde Engineering in Munich. Since joining Linde Engineering in 1985, he has been involved in process and mechanical design, as well as in the operational concerns of cracking furnaces. After gathering experience in development, sales, field work and project management, Schmidt took over responsibility for furnace design in 2006. He studied chemical engineering at the University of Erlangen–Nuremberg, where he graduated with a Dipl.-Ing. (M.Sc.).
