R&D projects
A decade of European R&D in turbomachinery and clean combustion
MITIS has been selected for some of Europe's most competitive innovation programmes, including the EIC Accelerator, and coordinates European research consortia. These projects build the technologies behind our products and engineering services: flameless combustion, micro gas turbines, foil-bearing turbomachinery, Turbo-Brayton heat pumps and hybrid systems.
Running projects
Current European R&D projects
Clean and Highly efficient Ammonia Release Mitigation Systems
Clean Energy Transition Partnership (CETPartnership)
Safe, ultra-clean oxidation of ammonia-containing purge and vent streams for maritime and industrial energy systems. The burner builds on the MITIS stagnation point reverse flow flameless combustor concept and will be developed from concept to validation in a relevant environment, with leading European universities and research centres.
High-temperature Turbo-Brayton heat pumps
Clean Energy Transition Partnership (CETPartnership)
Development of high-temperature Turbo-Brayton heat pump systems for efficient, low-carbon process heat in the agrofood industry.
Hybrid SOFC – micro gas turbine systems
Clean Energy Transition Partnership (CETPartnership)
Hybrid solid oxide fuel cell and micro gas turbine systems converting industrial off-gases into electricity and heat.
Energy from agricultural waste
Valorisation of agricultural waste streams through advanced energy conversion technologies for sustainable on-site power generation.
Track record
Completed flagship projects
Flameless, affordable and high-efficiency micro turbine system for sustainable residential cogeneration
European Innovation Council (EIC) Accelerator, Horizon 2020
An ultra-efficient gas heat pump combining a MITIS flameless micro-CHP unit, a heat pump and a condensing boiler, for natural gas, biogas or hydrogen blends, up to 135 kWth for apartment buildings. MITIS was selected for the highly competitive EIC Accelerator after an SME Instrument Phase 1 feasibility study in 2019, with an EU contribution of €1.35 million.
Clean and efficient micro-CHCP by micro turbine based hybrid systems
Horizon Europe, Research and Innovation Action
European consortium coordinated by MITIS, developing next-generation microturbine-based hybrid systems for high-efficiency, low-carbon decentralised heating, cooling and power.
