What professions can be pursued in battery research? And how is everyday work in science? Ten schoolgirls explored these questions at MEET Battery Research Center and Helmholtz Institute Münster during the annual Girls' Day on April 3. Five female scientists and technicians from both institutes gave the schoolgirls insights into their work and experimented with them in the laboratories. Read more
To produce electrodes more environmentally friendly and cost-effectively, scientists from MEET Battery Research Center at the University of Münster has developed a method for their dry processing. The process is an outcome of the cooperation project ProLiT. Read more
Electrode drying in the roll-to-roll process (R2R) has so far been one of the most cost- and CO2-intensive manufacturing steps in the production of lithium-ion batteries. A laser-based R2R drying process developed as part of the IDEEL research cooperation combines conventional, oven-based convection drying with laser drying using high-power diode lasers and reduces the drying time.

Around 40 participants of the two school visit days on March 11 and 12, 2025, gained insights into research on energy storage systems at MEET Battery Research Center at the University of Münster. Equipped with lab coats and safety goggles, the chemistry classes were able to follow the work of the institute's scientists in the various laboratories and conduct their own experiments. Read more
