    This year, the European Union has amended the EU Waste Water Directive which is explicitly stating the elimination of trace pollutants in the law. The “Wasserperspektiven” dialog series, organized by the Fraunhofer Alliance for Water Systems, is developing new approaches in water management. In addition to a visit of the fourth treatment stage of a wastewater treatment plant in Mannheim, legal requirements, specific applications, challenges and solutions are discussed in dialogue formats. Dr. Volker Sittinger presents the SERPIC project in this context.

    Why do we need hydrogen? The answer is simple: For a climate-neutral economy. Wherever direct electrification is not possible, hydrogen can replace fossil fuels - directly or in bonded form for example as powerfuel Where can I get hydrogen and how can I use it? Green hydrogen is produced by splitting water with the help of renewable energies. In our program, you will learn how to produce, transport and use green hydrogen. In the process we share with you the latest research knowledge from the Fraunhofer IST and show you how hydrogen is already being used by our associate companies. You will have the opportunity to exchange ideas with scientists and entrepreneurs, but you will also get an introduction to the components of tomorrow's hydrogen economy. You don't need any prior knowledge. We will start from where you are now. We look forward to meeting you!

    The SUSCON XI conference is organized by the Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Shillong and will take place from 21 to 23 November 2024. The focus is on environmental sustainability and the removal of carbon from the environment. It is thus an important platform to promote innovative solutions and strategies to combat climate change with the aim of achieving net-negative greenhouse gas emissions in a climate-positive world. The director of the Fraunhofer IST, Prof. Dr.-Ing. Christoph Herrmann, will give a keynote speech on positive impact factories for sustainable cities.

    The International Battery Production Conference (IBPC) will take place from November 27 - 29, 2024 in Braunschweig. Since 2018, the conference focuses on production-related topics in the battery industry, such as recycling, circular economy and supply chains in order to promote the transformation of the mobility system. It supports the high pace of innovation in new materials and production technologies that need to be transferred from laboratory scale to industrial mass production. The conference serves as an international exchange and networking platform dealing with the latest developments in battery production. Prof. Dr.-Ing. Sabrina Zellmer and Julian Brokmann from the Fraunhofer IST will give two presentations on the recycling of battery cells as well as on lithium and silicon anodes for solid-state batteries.
