Success Stories – from the idea to series production

…our developments pass through the institute beginning from the idea…

…to the basic and application-oriented research…

…to the point of their realization into custom built and market-ready results

We build a bridge between basic research and application, because…


Success Stories – Self-sufficient, anywhere and at any time

intelligent system for automatic and optimized battery recharging in recreational vehicles

makes the consumer independent of the power grid

the fuel processor components are based upon microstructured plate heat-exchanger technology developed at the IMM

these allow for a rapid system start-up as well as the direct coupling of endothermic and exothermic processes, which are integrated in one single component

In cooperation with the Fuel Cell System VeGA has been developed. It offers

220 - 250 W Output

Only 40 kg Weight

Only 90 to 100 g LPG consumption per hour

Costs of approx. 0.50 € per kWh


VeGA – Development Timeline


Success Stories – When the trucker takes a break

Within the project HYTRAN we develop solutions for sustainable electrical power supply for freight vehicles.

Compact and efficient by using micro structured components

Independent travelling by operation with conventional liquid gas

Low-noise and low-emission

Modern long distance trucks need to be supplied with energy even in break times. Drivers nearly live in their vehicle cabins so they need power for heating, air-condition, refrigerator, television etc. Instead of burning fuel in a diesel generator, a reformer/fuel cell system as an Auxiliary Power Unit is the better choice.

IMM developed: a diesel reformer, a water-gas shift reactor, a PROX-reactor and miscellaneous heat exchangers, a test stand with numerous measure and control possibilities to analyze the components individually and in combination

a 5 kW APU diesel reformer/PEM fuel cell system was in use in a Volvo truck.


Success Stories – Energy for aircraft kitchens

The demand for energy in a modern passenger aircraft is continuously increasing, whereas power generation by the engines remains limited. Furthermore,

steadily increasing fuel consumption results in a higher environmental impact

With up to 50% of the total electric energy consumption the galley is among the major consumers within the aircraft.

Decoupling the cabin power supply from the avionics - meaning all electrically operated, flight critical systems – as well contributes to improved safety.

In simple terms the trolley - as standardized galley element - is filled with a new “inner life” and acts as a "power plant" for the galley. Core component of the innovative trolley is the fuel processor system developed by ICT-IMM comprising a reformer, an integrated evaporator and super heater and other components.

Success Stories – Sniffing towards highest precision

The 20 year-long cooperation with INFICON is the best example for the development of a highly complex manufacturing process, which can only be performed at ICT-IMM, and the successful transfer of development results into market.

Highly sensitive membrane-based Helium sensor for the use in leak tests

ICT-IMM developed a wafer-thin, heated quartz membrane for the measuring cell, which is only permeable to Helium

A bonding method to connect membrane and glass cell has been specifically developed at IMM

the helium leak detection system Protec P3000 is manufactured in series by INFICON

Industry 4.0 – The chemical plant of the future

Customer expectations grow or change quickly

resources are increasingly scarce

many markets are more volatile than before

New or improved substances must be available within a few years, consequently requiring a shortened time to market

the mobility of a production facility has become increasingly important

Microreaction technology, combined with a standardized plant infrastructure in a container format, provides an answer to these trends. The idea behind it is simple: If you build small, you also keep your risks small. With small-scale chemistry, it is possible to react quickly to changes in consumer demands and the desires of customers, more effectively predict and influence costs, and minimize land usage and resource consumption.
