In dialogue for sustainability

Pioneering research in cooperation

Rethinking tomorrow, together

For innovative projects, we regularly enter into alliances with academic partners – because research work is valuable for both sides. We get scientific expertise and external input, while the universities can explore exciting fields of research with practical applications.

Waste is becoming an increasingly important source of raw materials. Thermal treatment of waste not only generates energy, it also produces residues, which can be used in more and more ways. This is why we are in a permanent dialogue with scientists to advance innovative product developments in the areas of residues, heat and flue gas. With TU Bergakademie Freiberg, for example, we are exploring how flue gas residues such as filter dust can be recovered and thus contribute to a circular economy.

In general, the researchers are exceptionally willing and motivated because our aspiration is that the research projects go beyond the purely theoretical and are put into practice as quickly as possible.

We want to get to market quickly and strengthen the circular economy.

Modern technologies need raw materials, energy, materials and materials. Forward-looking developments require innovative ideas and a pioneering spirit! How can we achieve responsible use of the finite resources of this earth? And how can the new approaches to solutions be implemented in an economically sensible way using innovative, sustainable and environmentally compatible methods? These pressing questions for the future shape the profile of TU Bergakademie Freiberg in research and teaching.
