Chemical engineering Hungary

Attila E. Pavlath received his diploma as a Chemical Engineer from the Technical University of Budapest and his Ph D. in chemistry from the Hungarian Academy of Science. He taught at his alma mater before he left Hungary after the 1956 revolution. After spending some time at McGill University in Montreal and Stauffer Chemical in Richmond, California, he joined the U.S. Department of Agriculture at Albany, California, in 1967 where he is a research leader.

CHARLES W. TOBIAS is Professor of Chemical Engineering at the University of California, Berkeley, where he has taught since 1947. He has been a Faculty Senior Scientist at the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory since 1954. He received his Diploma in Chemical Engineering and his Ph.D. at the University of Technical Sciences in Budapest, Hungary. His main research interests are in transport phenomena in electrolysis and galvanic cells, electrolytic gas evolution, and nonaqueous ionizing solvents. He is a member of the National Academy of Engineering and is a past president of The Electrochemical Society and the International Society of Electrochemistry. 

In 1920 the Horthy regime introduced a numerus clausus law restricting university admission which required that the comparative numbers of the entrants correspond as nearly as possible to the relative population of the various races or nationalities. The law, which would limit Jewish admissions to 5 percent, a drastic reduction, was deliberately anti-Semitic. Though he was admitted to the University of Budapest and might have stayed, von Neumann chose instead to leave Hungary at seventeen, in 1921, for Berlin, where he came under the influence of Fritz Haber and studied first for a chemical engineering degree, awarded at the Technical Institute of Zurich in 1925. A year later he picked up a Ph.D. summa cum laude in mathematics at Budapest in 1927 he became a Privatdozent at the University of Berlin in 1929, at twenty-five, he was invited to lecture at Princeton. He was professor of mathematics at Princeton by 1931 and accepted lifetime appointment to the Institute for Advanced Study in 1933. 

Questions of social policy and workers problems were dealt with by the Association from the employers side. From time to time the Association gave an extensive evaluation of the development of Hungary s chemical industry. Using this and similar information the Association tried to influence the further development of the industrial companies, steering them towards, instead of unnecessary competition, existing market demands. It supported the training of chemists and chemical engineers. 

The majority of the participants were chemists (in Hungary chemists means graduates from the two universities of sciences) and chemical engineers. Together they formed 36% of the participants. Another significant group was formed by factory owners and factory directors (16.8%). A third important group was that of companies, university departments and societies (12%).

A surprising fact, that can only happen in the U.S.A., was the variety of nationalities of the members of the laboratory who directly collaborated with Ochoa in this work. Peter Lengyel was a chemical engineer from Hungary, who was working on his Ph.D. thesis, Joseph Speyer was a young biochemist of German descent, and finally, I myself was a physician from Chile.

Chemical industries in the Habsburg monarchy in most cases were developed in connection with mining, brewing and metallurgical engineering. Many parts of Central Europe, which are today the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, parts of Poland, Romania or Ukraine, were in the nineteenth century parts of the Austrian Empire. After 1848, and particularly in the Dual Monarchy after 1867, Hungary succeeded to develop independently.
