Limited places are available for the technical tour. Availability on a first-come first-served basis.

During the tour, participants will have the opportunity to get an impression of the specialized laboratory, bench-scale and pilot-scale facilities at the Institute of Energy Process Engineering & Chemical Engineering, TU Bergakademie Freiberg and the Fraunhofer Institute IKTS group for Circular Carbon Technologies in Freiberg. The range of equipment, from pilot to demo scale, is unique for a university. Together with the comprehensive laboratory equipment, this allows to conduct research from the basics through to application.

Participants will visit the following Laboratory, Bench-Scale & Large-Scale Facilities:

• FlexiSlag – fixed-bed slagging pilot gasification plant for multiple solid feedstock
• FlexiFluidized – entrained/fluidized bed pilot gasification plant for multiple solid feedstock
• FlexiPox – high pressure partial oxidation pilot plant for gaseous and liquid hydrocarbons (e.g. oil residues, pyrolysis oils)
• FlexiEntrained (GSP gasification process)
• Fraunhofer pyrolysis platform (LTG/CTC processes)
• Bench-scale pyrolysis equipment
• Specialized laboratory equipment for feedstock characterization & analysis
• plasma facilities at Center for efficient high-temperature processes and materials conversion (ZeHS)

Come join us in Freiberg for a first-hand experience of R&D profile and the unrivalled equipment from laboratory to demo scale of the IFC organizer! The schedule for the (all-inclusive) tour is as follows:
