TUM receives a university church

TUM receives a university church

The Carmelite church in the Bavarian city of Straubing will be the official TUM university church. At a gala religious service on Saturday the Technical University of Munich (TUM) welcomed the dedication of the new university church. It is a part of Straubing’s historically very important Carmelite monastery, which became the property of the State of Bavaria in 2018 and was made available for academic use by TUM.

Hydrogen as a by-product of biocatalytic synthesis processes

Hydrogen as a by-product of biocatalytic synthesis processes

Green hydrogen is considered as one of the most important energy carriers of the future and a beacon of hope for achieving climate neutrality – without having to restrict the availability of energy for Germany as an industrial location. The question of where and how the necessary quantity of hydrogen can be supplied has not yet been fully resolved. Scientists at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have now come up with a new approach.

Artificial photosynthesis for environmentally friendly food production

Artificial photosynthesis for environmentally friendly food production

Ensuring the supply of food to the constantly growing world population and protecting the environment at the same time are often conflicting objectives. Now researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have successfully developed a method for the synthetic manufacture of nutritional protein using a type of artificial photosynthesis. The animal feed industry is the primary driver of high demand for large volumes of nutritional protein, which is also suitable for use in meat substitute products.
