Blue Energy is a sustainable technology for electricity generation. The electricity is generated by using the salinity gradient between river water and seawater (fresh and salt). With Blue Energy a new technique is developed which could help using less dangerous and environmentally toxic batteries, like the Lithium ones. Summary (download pdf)

Here you find information on the topic of fiber composites and answers to the question to what extent this material can contribute to sustainable industrial production. "Kitchen - fiber composite" can be produced and tested according to instructions. This course includes a project task that can be worked on by teams of students - taking into account the basic principles of project management, which are explained in explanatory videos and materials for teachers and students. Student teams can receive a certificate if they complete the project task! (Summary: download pdf)
In diesem Toolkit finden Sie Informationen zum Thema Faserverbundwerkstoffe
und Antworten auf die Frage vor, inwieweit dieser Werkstoff zu einer
nachhaltigen industriellen Produktion beitragen kann. Ein arbeits- und
gesundheitstechnisch unbedenklicher "Küchen - Faserverbundwerkstoff"
kann nach Anleitung von SuS selbst hergestellt und getestet werden.
Über diesen fachlichen Input hinaus beinhaltet dieses toolkit eine
Projektaufgabe, die von Schülerteams bearbeitet werden kann - unter
Berücksichtigung der Grundprinzipien des Projektmanagements, die in erklärenden
Videos und Materialien für Lehrer und Schüler erläutert werden. Schülerteams
können ein Zertifikat erhalten, wenn sie die Projektaufgabe abschließen!

This "toolkit" introduces school pupils to the fascinating world of fiber reinforced plastics. Special attention is put on the advantageous properties of these materials and also the hurdles that still have to be overcome to fully recycle fiber reinforced plastics. In addition, school pupils will get an insight into biobased matrix materials which open up a host of research opportunities and have the potential to party solve the recycling problem.
Das vorliegende „Toolkit“ soll die spannende Welt der Faserverbundwerkstoffe für Schülerinnen und Schüler erlebbar gemacht werden. Hierbei soll besonderes Augenmerk einerseits auf die Leistungsfähigkeit dieser Werkstoffe, andererseits aber auch auf die bislang noch nicht hinreichend geklärten Schwierigkeiten bei Fragen des Recyclings von FVK gelegt werden. Gleichzeitig soll den Schülerinnen und Schülern ein Ausblick auf die Möglichkeiten von biobasierten Matrixwerkstoffen ermöglicht werden, die eine Teillösung des Recyclingproblems und vielfältige Forschungsfelder eröffnen.

Nowadays the most frequently used insulating materials are the glass wool, polystyrene and polyurethane foam. Although all these materials have very good thermal insulating properties, their manufacturing requires a lot of energy.
We would like to replace these environmentally damaging insulating materials and produce a more environmentally friendly insulation. (download pdf)
Manapság az építőiparban leggyakrabban használt hőszigetelők az üveggyapot, a polisztirol, és a purhab. Ezen anyagok bár nagyon jó hőszigetelő képességűek, de az előállításuk nagy energia befektetéssel jár. Szeretnénk ezeket a környezetet terhelő szigetelő anyagokat letaszítani a jelenlegi trónjukról, és helyettük környezetkímélőbb szigetelést készíteni. (letöltés pdf)
