The working group "Thermochemical Processes" focuses on the conversion of biomass and other raw materials into energy sources and valuable chemicals and fuels using chemical and physical conversion processes such as gasification, combustion...
The finite nature of fossil fuels is increasingly forcing a rethink in energy policy. Intensive use of biogenic residues can replace fossil fuels. The use of biomass in energy-intensive processes (process heat supply) in particular poses ma...
Plastic waste contains a variety of valuable and critical raw materials that have often been insufficiently recycled or even lost completely. They often end up in thermal recycling and are thus removed from the economic cycle. Through chemi...

In our Clean Combustion and Process Heat department, we deal with low-emission combustion processes and process heat. One of our topics is oxyfuel combustion, in which pure oxygen is used as the O2 source instead of normal ambient air. Oxyf...
