2024 Fall Meeting of the European Materials Research Society (E‑MRS) September 16 to 19
The 2024 Fall Meeting of the European Materials Research Society (E‑MRS) will take place from September 16 to 19, 2024 at the main campus of the University of Technology in Warsaw (Poland)
Program: Energy Materials, Advanced ceramics for energy and environmental applications
As far as urgent matters are concerned, a clean environment ranks high. Amidst the mounting energy crisis and environmental pollution, scientists have been working feverishly to create catalysts that can convert and store renewable energy more sustainably, reduce CO2 emissions into valuable products, produce carbon-free energy, and improve our environment by breaking down pollutants in the air, water, and soil.
In this context, the development of efficient, inexpensive and environmentally friendly advanced ceramics has received great attention from researchers in academia and industry in recent years following the diversity of applications in the field of renewable energy.
To this end, the involvement of multidisciplinary research areas is necessary, including chemistry, materials science, engineering aspiring to improve human health and quality of life.
The main goal this Symposium is to present a general overview of the function of advanced ceramics, particularly composite structures, emphasizing their crucial contribution to the development of physical and chemical methods that are the mainstays of environmental monitoring and cleanup.
Sensing, adsorption, filtration, photocatalytic and catalytic remediation, and electrochemical processes will be taken into consideration, among other things.
The overarching goal of this symposium is to establish a forum where forward-thinking international scholars engage in the discourse on progress, share ideas, and make recommendations on future directions. Additionally, it is expected that students and young researchers will benefit.
Additionally, provide a roadmap to involved parties such as industry, academia and funding agencies on the research and development of ceramic materials towards more efficient, cost-effective and reliable energy, including production. hydrogen, carbon capture and storage and solar cells.
We look forward to welcoming you to Warsaw.
