Munich City Museum

“Between art and beer, Munich is like a village between hills.” ~ Heinrich Heine

With the class „Intercultural Communication“ of the Master Paper technology a group of international students visited the Munich City Museum. It was far from just about city building. Among the highlights were typical Bavarian specialties as well as very old figures carved out of wood that look as if they were still dancing today. Nevertheless, they have also learned a lot about the old town and that only three of the four town gates still exist today. The visit was a nice end of the subject for the students. Now it’s time for the well-deserved semester vacations. 

Paper from asparagus fibers

Every spring we look forward to it. The asparagus, whether with hollandaise or with pancakes. Nevertheless, the white stalks have to be peeled every time and at least a third of the good asparagus ends up in the trash. That doesn’t have to be the case. After two years of research in the lab at Munich University of Applied Sciences, there are results – the first asparagus paper has arrived. Would you like to learn more?

Potential of agricultural and forestry waste as environmentally friendly raw materials

The principle is as simple as it is ingenious. Waste from agriculture and forestry can be reused. This is how adhesives are made from waste wood or biofuel from straw. However, it is important to take a holistic view in order to avoid undesirable pollutants.You can read more about the EU research project and what to look out for in this type of reuse here

Cellulose in use against CO2 emissions

nature, earth, sustainability

Vigorous research is being carried out to remove unavoidable CO2 emissions from the air. This is how CO2 emissions can be removed from the air in the long term. The Center for Solar Energy and Hydrogen Research Baden-Württemberg, the DITF Deckendorf, the Institute for Energy and Environmental Research Heidelberg and Mercedes-Benz AG in Sindelfingen have now addressed this issue in a research project. Cellulose fibers seem to be the salvation. You can find the full article here

The summer semester 2021 will start online on 15.3.2021. But for now, we wish you a relaxing semester break, and stay healthy.

You can study paper?

We attended again the university forum in Weilheim to inform and attract future high school graduates for our course of study. The students were interested and curious about our “Paper booth”. And you can study something like that? Of course, and with a lot of fun. We hope that we could convince one or the other of our exceptional degree programme and that we will see each other again in the corridors of our department from October 2020.
