New article on the biological methanation in pilot-scale

The Chair of Urban Water Systems Engineering has published a comprehensive study on their pilot-scale trickle-bed reactor for biological methanation operated with real biogas as the CO2 source at the wastewater treatment plant Garching.

Environmental analysis and demand modelling of SAF pathways

At the Chair of Sustainable Future Mobility, different SAFs are analysed in more detail from a technical and environmental perspective using the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) method.

New paper “Numerical Validation and Optical Study of Injection of Different Oxymethylene Ether Fuels for Heavy-Duty Application”

A reliable toolchain for the validation and evaluation of numerical spray break-up simulation for the potentially carbon-neutral fuels polyoxymethylene dimethylether (POMDME, or short OME) is developed and presented.

A new test campaign was launched to investigate the performance and emissions analysis of Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF)

New study addresses the safety of lithium-ion batteries under mechanical crush loading and shows potential of discrete layered finite element models to improve analysis

This paper focuses on the safety of lithium-ion batteries during mechanical crush loading, as excessive loads can lead to internal short circuits and thermal runaway. The study uses discrete layered finite element models to analyze the internal stress and deformation of the battery cell, addressing challenges in material parameter measurements, meshing, and validation for future model…
