Project: MEMS-based catalytical sensors for flammable gases

Acronym MEscal (Reference Number: 113779)
Duration 01/06/2020 - 01/01/2023
Project Topic A gas detector with a novel gas sensor for flammable gases will be realized by innovative combination of materials and technologies. The development of new catalytic materials will lead to a significant reduction of poisoning as well as explosion protection by lower working temperature. A substantial reduction of power consumption can be realized by the use of MEMS hot plates. An excellent long-time stable, energy- and cost-efficient gas sensor will be developed for the industrial market.
