Our Vision - Zero Emission: This is the guiding principle of the Advanced Materials & Processes (AMP) group. With our extensive expertise in environmental process engineering and energy technology, we are meeting the national and global challenges of defossilisation.
We see «Zero Emission» as a holistic approach. Our activities focus on the reduction of increasingly costly CO2 emissions using Carbon Capture Utilisation & Storage (CCU & CCS) technologies. In addition, reduction of exhaust gas emissions that are harmful to the environment and health, such as VOCs or methane, are reduced through highly efficient electrical plasma processes.
The effective integration of renewable hydrogen in PtX processes to produce synfuels places a particularly high demands on catalysts, process engineering and efficiency. Even without hydrogen, some of our catalytic processes can produce a liquid energy carrier such as methanol from purely biogenic resources.
We use modern, innovative, high-performance and high-efficiency processes or develop them for you. We successfully support our partners from industry and politics worldwide with innovative, market-orientated and, above all, sustainable and climate-neutral solutions and develop new business areas: We AMPlify you!
