Great milestone for the #HiPowAR team! We met in Hermsdorf to visit Fraunhofer IKTS, where the reactor from our partner Maston Group is now being installed. After overcoming several challenges, we’re proud to see the setup finally taking shape! 🚀

300 membranes completed by Fraunhofer IKTS for our new reactor! That’s 130 meters—longer than a football field! 🏟️ Thanks to Maston AB’s design, we can now easily swap inserts to test different geometries.

NH3 is a cost-effective liquid hydrogen carrier for long-term storage and sea transport and possesses a higher energy density compared to liquid hydrogen. This advantage means ammonia transport requires less cost and storage space, making it a preferred choice in global trade.

🌿 LCA – The Key to Sustainable Innovation

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) measures the environmental impact of new technologies—from raw materials to disposal. In @HiPowAR, it helps identify risks early & make sustainable decisions. This way, we shape innovation responsibly! 🌍

The name 'ammonia' comes from the Egyptian deity Amun. Ancient Egyptians first distilled ammonia from camel dung near the Temple of Amun in Libya, naming it after the god. Ammonia was used for cleaning, preservation, rituals, and agriculture.

Each year, 180M tons of ammonia are produced. Loaded into 55-ton tank wagons (17.6m each), the resulting freight train would stretch nearly 60,000 km—longer than the Earth's circumference!

🔬 What is a perovskite structure?
It’s a crystalline arrangement of atoms (ABX₃) with cations 'A' and 'B' (blue/green) and anions 'X' (red). This unique pattern enables versatile properties, driving innovations in technology. 🌟
