Life Science Engineering

Life science engineering deals with the technical use of natural and life science findings. In the field of medical engineering, Hochschule Offenburg conducts research on cardiology (especially electrical stimulation and ablation) as well as on neurorobotics, hearing prosthetics, biomedical imaging and surgical navigation systems. In the field of biotechnology and environmental process engineering, the HSO focuses on biogas technology, thermal conversion processes and biological methanization.

The Peter Osypka Institute for Medical Engineering (POIM) is one of the participating institutes.

 

Title ARTHYMES - Archaea Transform Hydrogen to Methane for Energy Storage
Short Name ARTHYMES
Short Description Power-to-Gas stellt eine vielversprechende Technologie zur Speicherung von Energie aus erneuerbaren Quellen dar. Elektrolytisch aus Überschussstrom erzeugter Wasserstoff wird dabei zusammen mit Kohlendioxid zu Methan umgesetzt. Die Methanisierung kann auch biologisch durch methanogene Archaeen erfolgen, die diese Reaktion in jedem Biogasprozess katalysieren.
