Tausendwasser 2023 - Fraunhofer IKTS

Trade fair / March 15, 2023 - March 16, 2023

Tausendwasser

TAUSENDWASSER is the new trade fair format with and for the German water industry. At STATION-Berlin 2023, there will be plenty of space for trends and topics, networking and practical innovations. IKTS will be on site during the two days of the fair to provide information on solutions for the detection and removal of micropollutants and on decentralized oxygen generation for ozonation and revitalization. Come and meet us!

Detection and elimination of micropollutants

Fraunhofer IKTS develops technology combinations that are clearly superior to established approaches. New sensor concepts support the reliable detection of trace substances and the demand-oriented control of wastewater treatment. For the first time, IKTS will present an exhibit visualizing these approaches at the joint booth of the Fraunhofer SysWater Alliance (Hall B2 No. 215/314). By means of a touch screen, the exhibit illustrates a modular system for wastewater treatment. Membrane adsorption, photocatalytic oxidation, sonoelectrochemical oxidation as well as trace substance detection compose this and are integrated as physical components in the exhibit.

CO₂-neutral oxygen generation for ozonation in wastewater treatment plants.

Fraunhofer IKTS is one of the leading research institutions in the field of material separation with ceramic materials. In the separation of oxygen – O₂ – from air with mixed conducting ceramic membranes, only IKTS is able to realize membrane modules and pilot plants with technically relevant throughputs up to about 60 Nm³/h O₂. Here, the modular device concept and the patented process control are designed for on-site production of O₂ with minimal operating costs and CO₂ emissions. The oxygen produced is highly pure, sterile and dry. The ceramic membranes are based on readily available, recyclable material.

The company poXos^® (pure oXygen on site) is based on this technology and will establish itself in the market as a supplier of O₂ generators for small and medium sized O₂ consumers. Customers benefit from low O₂ prices and CO₂ emissions. In wastewater treatment by ozonation, poXos^® offers a considerably simplified and also closed process cycle. In addition to the on-site generation of oxygen, it includes integrated destruction of the residual ozone and reuse of the off-gas. A reduction in operating costs of up to 60 % can be achieved. For the first time, this enables climate- and resource-friendly as well as CO₂-neutral operation of the fourth treatment stage in wastewater treatment plants.
