Effective Solutions Against Particle Matter in Aviation

The new standard on particle matter called nvPM from the ICAO enters into force on the first of January 2020. From now on, a drastic reduction in particle matter (or soot) is required to get certification for the new aircraft engines.

CBOne and FH Joanneum / Aviation work together on the advanced combustion monitoring for aircraft engines including alert on soot formation in the frame of the "emootion" project
The ICAO is the International Civil Aviation Organization, a specialized agency of the United Nations in charge of setting the principles and techniques of international air navigation and of planning and developing international air transport to ensure safe and orderly growth. The acronym nvPM stands for non-volatile particulate matter emissions. It adds-up to prior standards defined for CO2 and NOx reduction in aviation.
CBOne participates in this effort to further push the limits of what is technically possible towards the soot-free burner. Read about our activities in burner design and advanced controls to improve the mixedness of the reactants, as well as our advanced monitoring techniques designed to detect soot production - so that it is then corrected within a comfortable safety margin.

Ten Years with a Partner is Something One Must celebrate!
Research and development is in CBOne's DNA. For the past ten years, we have used Austrian public funding via FFG to make significant achievements in combustion technology. The following series of postcards highlights moments, ideas, and the aesthetics of shapes we liked from a project.
The team is on fire!
2024-2025 marked the first significant increase in staff since the pandemic. The number of people working for CBOne has doubled. This paragraph is dedicated to all those who drive CBOne forward every day.
CBOne has an industrial vision with two main objectives. The first is to enhance conventional combustion techniques through innovation and optimisation of methods and equipment. The second is to ensure the long-term viability of combustion. This can be done by turning to fuels of the future. Examples of such fuels include hydrogen.
This may sound simple, but it is not. Those who work with us (in the team, or in common projects) must embody a certain culture and passion. These two factors drive us forward.

A big thank you to my wonderful team and colleagues! Have a great end of the year, and see you next year, in great shape! Together, we're going to score some points!

Power of Four
CBOne is supporting "Team Brandner", who have been kind enough to wear our colours, and before all who won the final of the Bolyai Mathematics Competition in Budapest on June the 24th! Congratulations!!!
The team, consisting of Viktoria Dietrichsteiner, Milo Giuliani, Alexander Goritschnig and Philipp Kreuzer, comes from the BRG Petersgasse in Graz. The team's achievements include a very good record in the previous editions of the Bolyai. Its individual members have also topped the rankings in the Kanguru competition and the Mathematical Olympiad.

CBOne's readiness for hydrogen combustion
It took us time to write this title. We needed time indeed to get convinced. We went through the process. We manipulated hydrogen combustion. Now we are sure: hydrogen is the future of combustion. A bright future.
Why did it take us so long?
