The Cologne University of Applied Sciences was represented with a booth at the IFAT 2012, the world's largest trade fair for water, sewage, waste and recycling. On the booth of the competence platform STEPS (Sustainable Technologies, and Computational Services for Environmental and Production Processes) also the working group GECO►C was represented. The booth was once again supported on the community stand "Research & Education". In this context, the topics of two theses, which have been developed from graduate GECO►C students within the framework of STEPS, were represented.
In addition, Prof. Bongards was very interested in the demonstration of a high-innovative MIR-probe for biogas plants, for which GECO►C will develop an automated sensor cleaning. "The IFAT was the first fair at which we have shown this new project and I am very satisfied with the engagement of my staff to achieve this goal", the head of the working group was please.
