The Institute was created in 1960 from the former Department of Organic Technology, Institute of Chemistry, and the Chemical Engineering Laboratory of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences. Its previous name was the Institute of Theoretical Fundamentals of Chemical Technology of the CSAS. The current name was adopted as of 1 July, 1993.
The Institute deals with research in the domain of the theory of chemical processes, covering especially the fields of chemical engineering, physical chemistry and environmental engineering.
The main areas of research are as follows:

The main areas of research are as follows:
- Molecular theory and computer simulations of liquids
- Thermodynamics of fluid systems and phase equilibria
- Supercritical fluid technology fundamentals
- Advanced separation methods
- Dynamics of multiphase reactors and bioreactors
- Catalytic processes (heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysis, biocatalysis).
- Chemical, electrochemical and transport processes in a fluidized bed
- Laser-induced reactions and aerosol processes for the preparation of new compounds and composites
- Chemism of destructive reactions of toxic organic compounds
PUBLIC COLLECTION OF IMG AS CR, V. V. I. On August 6th, 2014, the Institute of Molecular Genetics of the AS CR, v. v. i., (IMG) opened a public collection aimed to help 14-year-old Katareeya Epp, who is suffering from a severe form of cancer. Her parents are employed in the IMG (project BIOCEV).
Because Katareeya originates from a “third country”, namely, Australia, according to the Czech legislation she is not entitled to healthcare support from the public healthcare insurance.
