The prize, donated by the Willy-Hager-Stiftung, is awarded annually by DECHEMA and the Department of Water Chemistry of the Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker. The award recognizes outstanding work by young scientists in the field of water treatment and wastewater treatment.
The Willy Hager Prize is awarded for outstanding work in the field of water or wastewater treatment. The Willy Hager Prize annually honors younger scientists for outstanding work in the field of process engineering in (industrial) water or wastewater treatment. In the work, the procedural problem-solving should usually be in the foreground. Typically, these are doctoral theses. However, collaborative work of several scientists may also be submitted. The work should have been no longer than three years ago and had been carried out at a German university.
The Willy Hager Prize includes a grant amounting to €6,000. Half of this amount is shared between the winner and the higher education institution where the work was carried out.
