Processes for the modification of material flow cycles in agricultural enterprises
Together with High LES and other partners, we are developing a process for the treatment and recovery of raw materials from existing material flow cycles in agriculture, using and at the same time recovering regenerative energies.
This process is currently in the stage of project development.
Once the results of effectiveness has been verified, contributions to enhanced utilisation of the Fertiliser Ordinance (short-term goal), the improvement of environmental compatibility and the supply of the raw materials to a new biological, energetic and industrial use are expected.
The process will have a modular structure so that different process steps can be realised depending on the individual use-case.
The creation of new business models and thus added value for the agricultural producer or operator is the focus of the developers and participants from the very beginning.
SENSORICS -
Early detection of corrosion damage
Together with the companies we3 witte elektrotechnik GmbH, the Institute for Device Systems and Circuit Technology at the University of Rostock and other partners, a project is currently being further developed that deals with damage in various process areas caused by chemical, corrosive and mechanical effects and aims to develop methods and measures to increase the service life of the equipment.
In a previous joint project, the topic "REWAKO - Resource-efficient water management with innovative corrosion protection" was successfully completed by we3-elektrotechnik GmbH, the Institute for Device Systems and Circuit Technology at the University of Rostock and the management consultancy Bartsch. The results are being practically realised in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
The sensors are dimensioned in such a way that there is sufficient time before an impending failure to carry out maintenance work and thus avoid major damage or failure. For this purpose, a sensor was created to permanently monitor material changes due to corrosion. The basic principle can also be transferred to other areas of interest. It is useful wherever process and environmental influences can lead to gradual damage of technical equipment over a long period of time.
