Combined expertise
"Knowledge" is an essential prerequisite for scientific and economic success in the engineering field. Both publishers of the ESTEC database, DECHEMA and FIZ Technik, have longtime experience in the development and production of sophisticated information systems.
Since 1972, FIZ Technik focusses on knowledge management in the engineering field. The well-known TEMA® - Technology and Management database comprises more than 4 million entries and is one of the most comprehensive information systems for engineers.
Already in 1952, the DECHEMA started with its first literature information system for chemical and process engineers. Now, the CEABA®-VtB (Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology Abstracts - Verfahrenstechnische Berichte) database encompasses more than 725,000 records from 1966 onwards.
ESTEC is a joint project comprising the environmentally relevanat data from both sources TEMA® and CEABA®-VtB, and thus combines the expertise of both partners.
