Recent PtX activities at the Laboratory for Chemical Process Engineering (CTV)

The project NAMOSYN was successfully completed in September 2022 with the demonstration of the industrial maturity of the OME synthesis process. The project SynergyFuels to develop an integrated refinery concept for the production of renewable fuels from biogenic residues started in January 2023.

Roadmap 4.0 within the Kopernikus P2X project has been published.

The fourth roadmap of the Kopernikus P2X project shows the relevance of PtX products in a defossilized energy system. In addition, the ecological, economic and social impacts are examined on the basis of value chains of P2X products.

New publication on sustainable aviation fuel from biomass by gasification and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis.

Global aviation growth is set to continue in the coming decades, and the most promising strategy for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from aviation is the use of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). At the Chair of Energy Systems, the so-called Biomass-to-Liquid (BtL) process is being investigated, which is considered the most promising of several process paths to produce SAF.

New study on the production of sustainable methanol using membrane reactors.

In a new paper in the journal Advanced Sustainable Systems, titled "Performance Requirements of Membrane Reactors for the Application in Renewable Methanol Synthesis: A Techno-Economic Assessment," researchers from the Department of Energy Systems look at the production of renewable methanol using membrane reactors.

Successful 3D Printing of Ni-Al Catalysts for the CO2 Methanation

A new publication demonstrates the successful manufacturing of active Ni-Al catalysts for the CO2 methanation using 3D printing.

Annual TUM.Hydrogen and PtX Network General Meeting 2022

Excellent mood at the first face-to-face TUM.Hydrogen and PtX Network Meeting for over two years

Kick-off “Greener-RQL” Project

The “Flightpath 2050” report documents Europe’s vision for aviation to achieve a drastic reduction in pollutant emissions of CO2 and NOx, as well as emitted noise. The fuel change from kerosene to hydrogen is considered as a step closer towards the goal of decarbonization. The project “Greener-RQL” which started at the Professorship of Sustainable Future Mobility in July 2022 supports the…

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.
