The transition from fossil fuels to carbon-neutral energy sources is necessary to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and combat climate change. Hydrogen (H2) provides a promising path to harness fossil fuels to reduce emissions in sectors such as transportation. However, regional economic...

Ziel der vorliegenden Studie ist es, eine ökonomische wie ökologische Bewertung für alternative Kraftstoffe und Antriebe bei PKW für Fahrzeuge der Kompaktklasse in Deutschland für 2020 und 2030 vorzunehmen. Die wirtschaftliche Bewertung erfolgt nach einem Total-Cost-of-Ownership-Ansatz,...

Due to the high carbon and ash content of coal gasification fine ash (CGFA) produced by circulating fluidised bed gasifiers (CFBG), it is mainly dissipated in landfills and energy wastage. Large-scale dissipation of CGFA can be achieved if the carbon in CGFA has active oxidation properties and...

Die direkte Abscheidung von Kohlenstoffdioxid (CO2) aus der Luft, das sogenannte Direct Air Capture (DAC), wird vermehrt als eine der Möglichkeiten zur Reduzierung von Treibhausgasen und damit der Begrenzung der Klimaerwärmung diskutiert. Vorteilhaft gegenüber anderen technischen Ansätzen...

Synthetic fuels produced with renewable surplus electricity depict an interesting solution for the decarbonization of mobility and transportation applications which are not suited for electrification. With the objective to compare various synthetic fuels, an analysis of all the energy conversion...

COGAR was a research project that aims to assess the risk associated with UCG in operating mines and areas of high vulnerability. The Project commenced in July 2013 and was completed in accordance with the schedule in June 2016. The project was organized into work packages, each covering a...
