Vast potential for the production of advanced biofuels in Australia

The Chair of Energy Systems has published a new scientific paper on the creation of detailed suitability maps for BtL and PtL processes including the quantification of gasifier sizes, renewable energy requirements and fuel production potential in the Journal of Cleaner Production.

Clean Hydrogen from Manure and Slurry – A 99.999% Success

The "BioH2Ref" project has paved the way for biohydrogen from agricultural residues, achieving remarkable milestones such as 5.0 purity and market certification as a green fuel. The Institute of Plant and Process Technology (APT) contributes to the follow-up project "BioH2Log" by supporting the optimization and scientific evaluation of the Krefeld plant.

One year of ALRIGH2T - Airport-level demonstration of ground refueling of liquid hydrogen for aviation

The Institute of Plant and Process Technology is involved in the EU project ALRIGH2T, developing a direct refueling system for aircraft with liquid hydrogen. The focus is on modeling centrifugal pumps, pipelines, and tanks, which will be further refined and validated.

Johannes B. Ortner Prize for outstanding research at the Chair of Urban Water Systems Engineering

Dr.-Ing. Carolina Feickert Fenske receives the Johannes B. Ortner Prize for her dissertation on biological H2/CO2 methanation in trickle bed reactors.

Annual TUM.Hydrogen and PtX Network General Meeting 2024

In its efforts to strengthen interdisciplinary collaboration and advance research in the field of hydrogen and Power-to-X (PtX) technologies, the TUM.Hydrogen and Power-to-X Network held its annual meeting on November 25, 2024.

Electrification of the production of sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) - co-electrolysis boosts efficiency

The Chair of Energy Systems has published a new scientific paper on the technical evaluation and life cycle analysis (LCA) of the integration of solid oxide co-electrolysis in biomass-to-liquid processes for the sustainable production of aviation fuel in Applied Thermal Engineering.

New paper “Investigations on particle emissions of large-bore engines powered by natural gas and hydrogen”

Hydrogen is becoming increasingly important as a future fuel in stationary applications and shipping. Hydrogen-powered engines are also an interesting subject for research because their emissions are, in principle, carbon-free. If particles are nevertheless detected in the exhaust gas, for example, these must originate from the combustion of lubricating oil, so that conclusions can be drawn about…

Foundation of the TUM.Hydrogen and PtX network

In April 2019, the TUM.Hydrogen and PtX Network was officially launched to pool expertise in the field of power-to-X and hydrogen production at TUM and to facilitate scientific exchange.
