Publication by TU researchers in ‘Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the USA’

Tiny cavities in energy storage devices form small vortices that help with charging, according to a research team led by TU Darmstadt. This previously unknown phenomenon could advance the development of faster storage devices.

Forschungsprojekt der TU Darmstadt erfasst erstmals systematisch Aquathermie-Anlagen

Flüsse und andere Gewässer enthalten „natürliche“ Wärme – ein Potential, das für die Energiewende bislang wenig erschlossen ist. Die Wissenschaftlerin Jessika Gappisch von der TU Darmstadt will das ändern.

EU und Land Hessen fördern Projekt mit drei Millionen Euro

Wie können erneuerbare Energien über längere Zeit sicher und klimaneutral gespeichert werden? Mit dieser und weiteren wichtigen Zukunftsfragen beschäftigen sich Forschende der TU Darmstadt nun im neuen Metal Energy Hub.

Alternative methods for sustainable ammonia production

Athene Young Investigator Tao Li is developing new approaches to produce and utilise the key substance of the hydrogen economy efficiently and in an environmentally friendly manner.

TU researchers prove microplastics are stored in forests for the first time

Microplastics and nanoplastics are not only polluting our oceans, rivers and fields, but also our forests. This is the conclusion reached by geoscientists at TU Darmstadt in a study now published in the renowned journal Nature Communications Earth & Environment.

Head of the State Chancellery Kuhn and ENTEGA Management Board member Wolff visit TU

The head of the Hessian State Chancellery, Benedikt Kuhn, and the CEO of ENTEGA AG, Dr. Marie-Luise Wolff, visited TU Darmstadt yesterday (29 April). They were welcomed to the university's Lichtwiese campus by TU President Tanja Brühl, TU Chancellor Martin Lommel and Vice Presidents Matthias Oechsner and Heribert Warzecha.

TU publication on the Leidenfrost effect

Surprising discovery in microfluidics: Research team from Tsinghua University and TU Darmstadt shows that Leidenfrost droplets can also move in a targeted manner on symmetrical surfaces – a phenomenon that could enable new approaches to fluid transport on the smallest scale.

TU researchers gain access to JUPITER supercomputer

How can green hydrogen burn CO₂-free in future gas turbines safely, efficiently and cleanly? This key question for the energy transition, which researchers at TU Darmstadt are working on, is one of the first challenges for JUPITER, the first European exascale supercomputer.

Herausforderungen, Lösungen und Verantwortlichkeiten

Am Abend des 13. März fand im Georg-Christoph-Lichtenberg-Haus zum mittlerweile 8. Mal der E+E Diskurs statt. Das Thema „Spurenstoffe im Wasserkreislauf“ sorgte in der Tat für einigen Diskussionsbedarf.

E+E Discourse on trace substances in the water cycle

On Thursday evening, March 13, the E+E research field at TU Darmstadt once again brought an exciting topic to the stage in the Lichtenberg House: “Clear water – cloudy prospects? Trace substances in the water cycle” was the title of the 8th E+E Discourse, which attracted scientists, experts and interested citizens alike to the Georg-Christoph-Lichtenberg-Haus. The event was fully booked shortly after it went live – interest in this topic was particularly high.
