Andreas Bück is Associate Professor for Particle Technology in the Department of Chemical and Bioengineering (CBI) at the Friedrich-Alexander-University of Erlangen-Nuremberg (FAU). Andreas holds a Dr.-Ing. (PhD) in Chemical Engineering and a Dipl.-Ing. in Engineering Cybernetics (Control Engineering, both from Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg, Germany). After several years as assistant professor for particle formation processes in fluidized bed processes, he moved to FAU and is heading a research group on solids processing. His main research focuses on the investigation of particle formation processes — drying, granulation, agglomeration, crystallization — as well as development of online/inline measurement techniques and process control schemes for these processes.

Main applications of his work are in the field of pharmaceuticals, food and feed as well as additive manufacturing.
