Latest IMM-newsletter "IMMage" publishedJuly 13, 2004Special issue "reforming technology" „Micro systems for the people" was the motto of the last issue of our newsletter "IMMage". The urgent need for a sustainable, environmentally sound and resource sparing energy supply is certainly one of the questions concerning our society today. Hydrogen and fuel cells yield hope. How can microtechnology contribute to this development? We are devoting this special issue of our newsletter to „reforming technology", which means the generation of hydrogen in microstructured reactors. We also think that this relatively new application of micro process technology is a good example of successful research and technology transfer. The special issue of IMMage is printed on six pages in german and english language. IMMage is available as pdf-file per e-mail but also as printed version via post delivery.
