News from MEP

Polyoxymethylene dimethyl ethers (OME) are promising e-fuels for diesel engines, combining carbon-neutral production and low-emission engine operation by virtue of soot-free combustion. The emissions of diesel engines fueled with OME and in blends with diesel have been studied extensively using single-cylinder research engines under laboratory conditions. Emissions from a series engine using an…

Since August 2021, research in the field of sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) has been conducted at the Chair of Turbomachinery and Flight Propulsion (LTF).

Within the framework of the TUM.Hydrogen and PtX network, a visit of the DemoMeth pilot plant at the wastewater treatment plant Garching took place on 1st July 2022.

Virtual Transatlantic Hydrogen Exchange US-Bavaria: “Introduction to the H2 regions and networking about cooperation possibilities” im Rahmen der Transatlantic Innovation Week 2022 – 27.04.2022, 17:00 Uhr CET – 18:30 Uhr CET

As partner universities of the “EuroTech Universities” the research group “Bio Conversions” from the Chemical and Biochemical Engineering Department (DTU) and the research group “Energy-Efficient Wastewater Treatment” from Chair of Urban Water Systems Engineering (TUM) are initiating a new collaboration project on biogas upgrading in trickle bed reactors. The aim of the collaboration project is to…

Hydrogen from water electrolysis can be stored within the natural gas grid and provide a large energy storage capacity. Due to the specific combustion properties of hydrogen, however, engines and CHP fueled with natural gas are subject to investigations on the effects of hydrogen addition on their operating behavior.
