Die Forschungsgruppe „Energieeffiziente Abwasserbehandlung“ beschäftigt sich insbesondere mit innovativen Verfahren zur Steigerung der Energieeffizienz und zur Maximierung der Energierückgewinnung aus den behandelten Reststoffen, beispielsweise in Form von energiereichem Biogas. Für ein Forschungsvorhaben werden ab sofort zunächst zeitlich befristet für 3 Jahre zwei Wissenschaftliche…

During the 12th Batterieforum Deutschland, Rebecca Wilhelm and Leonhard Reinschlüssel were awarded with the 3rd and 1st place prizes for their respective posters. From the 24th to 26th of January 2024, the Kompetenznetzwerk Lithium-Ion Batterien (KLiB) organized the 12th Batterieforum Deutschland at the Ritz-Carlton in Berlin and virtually, in collaboration with the Federal Ministry of Education…

As part of the global effort to mitigate climate change, the Chair of Energy Systems (LES) proposes a promising direction with its recent publication on the electrification of biomass-to-X (BtX) processes. A recently published review paper highlights the transformative potential of electrified BtX processes to defossilize heavy-duty transport, aviation and the chemical industry. The LES focuses on…

In this paper, an ML-enhanced testing procedure for li-ion batteries is proposed, which increases the efficiency of cycle life testing by stopping the cycling of a subset of batteries and predicting their end of lifes instead. Based on aging features and the Kennard-Stone algorithm, a suitable subset of batteries is selected, whose future aging trajectory can be predicted with high accuracy. The…

The APT presents its research in the monthly TUM.Hydrogen and PtX Network Meeting

In a test campaign at the LTF, ethanol and OME3-5 were mixed in small quantities with regular Jet A-1. The fuel blend was burned in a helicopter engine to investigate the impact on the resulting soot emissions.

In a new paper from the ENS chair, we analyze the production of hydrogen in different locations in Egypt, including a feasibility study of transporting it to Germany.

The article "Modeling Silicon-Dominant Anodes: Parametrization, Discussion and Validation of a Newman-Type Model" was published in November in the journal "Batteries". The authors are Axel Durdel, Sven Friedrich, Lukas Hüsken and Andreas Jossen. The article deals with the electrochemical modelling and parameterization of silicon-dominant anodes. The literature is discussed with regard to the…
