In research, results are usually shared through papers, posters, or presentations. What often remains unseen is the extensive preparation behind an emissions measurement campaign. For our current project ADVISAR (ADdressing feasibility studies toward cleaner aVIation and environmental impacts research with SAf on unRegulated engines), we conducted emissions measurements with two different fuels at Stans Airport […]
METENVIA thanks all collaborators for their great work in 2025 and looks forward to working together in 2026. Some highlights from our group to look out for in 2026: Schlagwörter: happy new year, metenvia
How does borosilicate glass, the material used to lock away high-level radioactive waste, hold up after not just months, but decades in water? Our new study, led by the University of Montpellier and the French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission (CEA, Marcoule) tracks a simplified glass (CJ2) from 7 days to 27 years and […]
Earlier on this blog, I introduced the objectives and planned methodology for our project on soot-vapor interactions in jet engine exhaust, which forms a core part of my Ph.D. work at METENIA and ETH. Since then, I’ve had the opportunity to present some of our first experimental findings at EGU25 (European Geosciences Union General Assembly […]
Summary: A research team from the National Institute for Environmental Studies, Zurich University of Applied Sciences, Tokyo Metropolitan University, and other institutions (hereinafter referred to as “our research team”) conducted emission tests on aircraft engines and examined the shapes and internal structures of the exhaust particles with high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. Our research team identified […]
