Plasma catalysis for renewable Fuels and Chemicals

Workshop,
DIFFER event
The first workshop organised in the frame of the KEROGREEN project will be held at DIFFER. It will focus on plasma catalytic processes and how these can be applied for production of renewable fuels and chemicals.Several presentations as well as a poster session will give an overview of current appraoches and projects on this subject.

Seminar: Fine iron powder as renewable dense energy carrier

Seminar, to
DIFFER event
Metal fuels have been proposed as advanced storage and transport systems for clean energy, because of their inherently low safety risk and high energy densities. To ensure a clean metal fuel energy cycle, metal fuel utilization products, i.e., metal oxide powders, need to be captured and cyclically reduced back into metal fuel powder via advanced technology that is powered by renewable energy.

Seminar: Modelling energy dissipation for molecules at surfaces

Seminar, to
DIFFER event
In the dawning age of sustainability, energy harvesting and dissipation at interfaces play a crucial role for processes that feed and fuel our modern societies. At the atomic scale, the vibrational lifetime of small molecular adsorbates can provide detailed information about the molecular dynamics of energy exchange with the surface [1].

Solar-to-Products 2019

Symposium,
DIFFER event
The symposium Solar-to-products brings together the broad community working on converting solar energy to fuels and products. It is organized by TKI-BBE, NWO and DIFFER. In particular researchers are invited who participate(d) in the NWO programmes Solar-to-Products, Materials-for-Sustainability, CO2-Neutral-Fuels and Towards Biosolar Cells.

Seminar: Electrochemical conversion of CO2 into organic carbonates

Seminar, to
DIFFER event
Abstract:  Many industrial chemical processes involve a high-energy demand (often still derived from fossil fuels), toxic reactants, and the production of high amounts of waste. Therefore, the development of more efficient, less hazardous technologies, based on renewable energies, has become one of the most challenging topics for chemical synthesis.
