Das Programm für das 5. Aachener Ofenbau- und Thermoprozess-Kolloquium beinhaltete für den 23. und 24. September 2025 die folgenden Punkte:
Get-Together am Montag, den 22. September 2025 am Institut für Industrieofenbau und Wärmetechnik
Am Vorabend des Kolloquiums bieten wir Ihnen ab 18 Uhr ein optionales Get-Together am Institut für Industrieofenbau und Wärmetechnik an. Bei einer Anreise bereits am Montag, besteht so die Möglichkeit das Institut und unsere Versuchshalle zu besichtigen. Auch um das leibliche Wohl der Gäste wird sich im Rahmen des Get-Togethers gekümmert.
