Badge of Honor of the Society of Water Chemistry

To recognize exceptional commitment to the Society of Water Chemistry 's Division of the German Chemical Society (GDCh), the Division Board awards the Badge of Honor to selected individuals at irregular intervals. The ceremony traditionally takes place during the annual WASSER conference.

On 26 May 2025, Dr. Norbert Konradt was awarded the Badge of Honor at WASSER 2025:

"[...] in recognition of his long-standing commitment to the Society of Water Chemistry. Based on his extensive expert knowledge, he enriched the annual meetings with numerous valuable technical contributions. He demonstrated how basic research from the Society of Water Chemistry can be transferred into the practical application of water supply and used there. His tireless commitment to the long-standing financial support of the Society of Water Chemistry by the Düsseldorf municipal utilities, which is largely due to his work, deserves special mention. Such support is of fundamental importance for the success of our annual meetings."
