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.

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.
Every year, the VPM invites students to join the association’s Isar raft trip. You can enjoy a day on the raft with draught beer, meat loaf, good music and a great atmosphere. At the same time, you have the opportunity to talk to representatives from the paper industry in a relaxed setting and to make contacts. A really great event to look forward to.
