Besides the well established electric fuel option for individual and public transport in the future, a carbon based solution should not be excluded from the agenda. Always following the slogan “CO2 free economy? Of course. Carbon free economy? Not necessary”. Some new ideas of closing the carbon cycle were developed lately, e.g. using plastic waste as a fuel resource or reducing the municipal waste appearence by material usage of the contained carbonaceous chemical compounds.
Our colleague M.Sc. R. Voss explained these new technologies to interested students from different schools in saxony and showed them the huge opportunities we have nowadays regarding the current scientific research topics. The students were amazed by the findings and were very interested in the challenges that we still have to face. Wide spread curiosity within the new generation is the best chance for our future!
