The sustainable circulation of materials and products, powered by regenerative energy sources, in order to bring about a healthy future: that is the underlying vision of the circular economy. A new book on the circular economy compiled by the TUM Senior Excellence Faculty highlights suggestions and potential sources of inspiration for a sustainable and rationally managed economy.
Science meets industry – at our Circular Science Slam in the Audimax of the TUM (Arcisstraße 21) on 01 June 2022!
A low-cost and easy-to-manufacture lighting technology can be made with light-emitting electrochemical cells. Such cells are thin-film electronic and ionic devices that generate light after a low voltage is applied. Researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and the University of Turin have now used extensive data analysis to create first-class electrochemical cells from copper complexes that emit blue and white light.
At the end of March 2022 Prof. Dr. Magnus Fröhling and Vanessa Heinrich from the Professorship of Circular Economy at the TUM Campus Straubing travelled to Ghana.
A multidisciplinary study combining computer simulations and laboratory experiments on a key-enzyme for biofuel production has been recognized as the cover article by ChemBioChem. Within the authors are members of the TUM Campus Straubing.
