Ceramic technologies for highly efficient power-to-X processes
15-Oct-2019
The speedy reduction of worldwide CO2 emissions is one of the most pressing and challenging tasks of our time. Alongside the strategy of avoiding CO2 emissions altogether, there are a number of technologies which transform unavoidable CO2 into valuable products. But these so-called power-to-X ...
New membrane reactors supply "green" raw materials for chemical industry
15-Jun-2018
In the future, closed carbon loops play an important role to drastically reduce carbon dioxide emissions and ensure safe and cost-effective access to carbon sources as the basis for products of the chemical industry. In order to increase the efficiency and thus profitability of the synthesis ...
Fast, accurate, non-contact, non-destructive
Process monitoring with laser speckle photometry
07-Jun-2016
Since the 1960s speckle patterns are used for the evaluation of quality-relevant material parameters and defects. The laser speckle photometry works without reference beam unlike other speckle-based processes. This allows for a simple and robust construction, which can be easily integrated into ...
Industrial product and component labeling for extreme process conditions
31-Mar-2016
Researchers at Fraunhofer IKTS developed a robust solution for the individual labeling of components and products. It withstands extreme environmental influences, can be applied within seconds and read-out reliably. Therefore, the new development is suitable for the integration into industrial ...
Electricity from waste heat made possible by ceramics
31-Mar-2016
Where conventional materials reach their limits, ceramics can display their excellent properties. Functional ceramics – so-called thermoelectric materials – can convert waste heat directly into electricity, for example, in high-temperature processes. Currently, less than half of the energy used ...
Casting of SiSiC: new perspectives for chemical and plant engineering
08-Sep-2015
Despite its outstanding chemical, thermal and tribological properties, the high costs of production currently prevent the use of silicon-infiltrated SiSiC in many applications. A novel method overcomes technical manufacturing limitations of conventional shaping methods. Researchers at Fraunhofer ...
Metal encapsulation optimizes chemical reactions
02-Jul-2015
The chemical industry consumes millions of tons of packing materials as catalytic support media or adsorbents in fixed-bed reactors and heat storage systems. Fraunhofer researchers have developed a means of encapsulating these filler particles in metal that multiplies their thermal conductivity ...
Fraunhofer IKTS partners with Mayur REnergy Solutions Inc. to develop SOFC systems for India
14-Mar-2013
To provide clean and green energy alternatives at an affordable cost, Mayur Renergy Solution (a Pune- & Boston-based corporation) in January 2013 signed a contract with the Fraunhofer Institute for Ceramic Technologies and Systems IKTS, Germany, to develop Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) products ...
