Projects


Selected projects

Autarky toilet

The aim of the Autarky toilet is to completely dispose of faecal matter in any location – even without an external energy source or any connections to a sewage system.

Electrodynamic fragmentation of electronic scrap

Electronic devices are becoming increasingly complex and compact. This complicates the recycling process – which is why there are plans to introduce new and innovative processes.

Services
