Conference "Salts in Cultural Heritage - Challenge for Research and Practice" The Hornemann Institute held on 3rd to 5 February 2011 in cooperation with the Association of Restoration VDR a conference on the topic "Salts in Cultural Heritage. Challenge for Research and Practice". 180 guests from home and abroad heard three keynote lectures, and they many case studies on salt reduction. Many talks were given by an interdisciplinary team of authors. A particularly intensive exchange among professionals took place in the workshops on the last day. A conclusion of the conference, see: http://www.hawk-hhg.de/pressestelle/169112_169593.php The abstracts of the talks are published in the e-publications on the website of the Hornemann Institute: http://www.hornemann-institut.de/german/epubl_tagungen29.php auf Some conference contributions are available as pdf-files: Steffen Laue: Klimastabilisierung und Salzreduzierung in der Krypta von St. Maria im Kapitol in Köln Michael Steiger: Kleine Kristalle, große Wirkung: Das schädigende Verhalten von Salzen in porösen Materialien Lep Pel.et al: Desalination by Electrokinetics Eberhard Wendler: Erfassung und Vermeidung klimarelevanter Sorptions- und Hydratationswechsel bauschädlicher Salzgemische am Beispiel des Musensaals im Augsburger Fuggerhaus Markus Eiden: Mineralische Kompressen im Rahmen von Salzverminderungsmaßnahmen an Wandmalereien Events 12TH International Conference on the Deterioration and Conservation of Stone CALL FOR ABSTRACTS The 12th International Conference on the Deterioration and Conservation of Stone to be held at Columbia University in the City of New York on the 22-26 October 2012.
