Consequently, the resource basis will be extended to include organic residues, wastes, and carbon dioxide. Conversion technologies will be enhanced or redesigned to ensure their efficient and economical operation, and to allow the value cycles based on new feedstocks to be integrated into the system. By using our excellent experimental facilities, ranging from lab to pilot and demonstration scale plants, our goal is to conduct applied research of the highest scientific quality.

We apply advanced digital methods for technology development, and for the basic automation, optimization, and monitoring of the operation of individual technologies and entire plants. With the help of holistic and technology-neutral planning tools, we ensure that biorefineries and energy supply technologies are optimally integrated into a sustainable, renewable energy system.

Organisational Structure

In order to solve the research tasks assigned to us in the best possible way, we organize our work in three research areas:

Area 1: Biorefineries
Area 2: Digital Methods and Solutions and
Area 3: Sustainable Supply and Value Cycles

The key focus and competences of the individual areas are described in more detail on the following pages.
