Der 32. Deutsche Flammentag fand vom 15. bis 17. an der Universität Paderborn statt. Über drei Tage haben über 200 Teilnehmer*innen aus Industrie und Forschung ihre wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisse miteinander geteilt.
Die Tagung wird alle 2 Jahre gemeinsam von der Deutschen Vereinigung für Verbrennungsforschung e.V. (DVV) und der deutschen Sektion des Combustion Institute (CI) ausgerichtet. In diesem Jahr wurde der Deutsche Flammentag an der…
KET successfully participated in the kick-off event for the CarbonFREEHeat innovation network, organized by EurA AG. The event took place on July 3, 2025, in Ellwangen and brought together numerous partners from science, business, and industry to develop joint approaches for climate-neutral heat supply. The focus was on innovative solutions for the use of industrial waste heat, the development and implementation of smart heating networks, the…
At the start of the new year, the KET is able to launch two new projects directly, sponsored by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection (BMWK) with a total of almost €2 million. The focus is on the integration of sustainable energy technology components such as storage systems, heat pumps and solar modules in residential neighbourhoods and industrial production sites. Together with our IT colleagues from SI-Lab, we will…
