Events/Trade Fairs

Fraunhofer UMSICHT is participating in this year's EUBCE 2025 in Valencia - the largest biomass conference and exhibition in the world. Various lectures and poster presentations on topics from the field of conversion technologies for residual and waste materials and processing and further processing options for conversion products will be presented. You will also gain an insight into innovations in oxyfuel combustion.

Fraunhofer UMSICHT is represented with a presentation at the Biochar Summit 2025 in Brussels. Sophie Schönfeld from the Advanced Carbon Conversion Technologies department will speak about the development of CO2-optimized biomass carbonate compounds as a recyclable material solution for plastic components.

Fraunhofer UMSICHT is taking part in AMI Chemical Recycling 2025 in Brussels. At the booth you will meet Prof. Dr.-Ing. Matthias Franke, head of the Sulzbach-Rosenberg branch of the institute. He will also be presenting how conventional plastics can become CO2-neutral.

Sayara Saliyeva mit Vortrag zu »Development of a parametrised scale-up model for prospective life cycle assessment of an emerging pyrolysis-based technology, namely TCR®: from laboratory to industrial scale«.

Fraunhofer UMSICHT is participating in the Renewable Materials Conference 2025 in Cologne, organized by the Nova Institute. In his presentation, Alexander Hofmann, head of the Advanced Carbon Conversion Technologies department, will talk about the possibility of producing stable, high-quality crude oils from biogenic residues. He will also present innovative processes for the post-treatment of biogenic pyrolysis oils in order to meet the specifications required for steam crackers.

Fraunhofer UMSICHT is represented as a partner of the CCPE - Fraunhofer Cluster of Excellence Circular Plastics Economy - at this year's K in Düsseldorf. K is the leading international plastics trade fair. Scientists from the institute branch in Sulzbach-Rosenberg will be happy to answer questions about current, innovative technologies for the chemical recycling of plastics. Make an appointment with us!

Fraunhofer UMSICHT is participating in the Sardinia Symposium 2025 - 20th international symposium on waste management, resource recovery and sustainable landfilling, in Italy. In his presentation, Michael Peer from the Advanced Carbon Conversion Technologies department will talk about the chemical recycling of PVC-containing plastic waste for LED recycling using iCycle® technology.
