Seven entries were received, and they were judged based on comparison to experimental data provided by The Dow Chemical Company. Five of the seven presented there results at the AIChE session before the announcement of the champions. J. Reinisch, A. Klamt, F. Eckert and M.Diedenhofen (COSMOlogic) were named Champions. P. Bai and J.I. Siepmann (U. Minnesota) were named Runners-Up. S.-T. Lin, L.-H. Wang, W.-L. Chen, P.-K. Lai, and C.-M. Hsieh (National Taiwan University) were named Honorable Mention. The other four entries were honored for participating: T. Koddermann, K. N. Kirschner, J. Vrabec, M. Hulsmann, D. Reith (SCAI; U. Paderborn); A. Vahid , F. S. Emami , E. Moharreri, J. R. Elliott (U. Akron); T. Cheng, F. Li, J. Dai, and H. Sun (Shanghai Jiao Tong University); and L. Zhao, C. Wub, and N. Huang (National Institute of Biological Sciences, Beijing, China; Washington University). Thanks to all who participated in planning and judging the challenge and to the entrants! It is anticipated that a 7th challenge will be planned for 2011.
