For the past two weeks we have had the pleasure of hosting in our institute the visiting scientists Dr. Peter R. Makgwane and Dr. David E. Motaung from the CSIR National Center for Nanostructured Materials in Pretoria, South Africa.
During their stay, they visited our institute’s facilities and attended various meetings and seminars. Having them in Warsaw has provided a great opportunity to discuss on topics related to our impressive scientific experience with the aim of establishing a formal scientific collaboration and starting some preliminary experiments related to our current research projects.
We hope that during this collaboration our complementary knowledge will help both groups to develop novel procedures for the synthesis of smart (photo)catalysts for the valorization of biomass to chemicals and their industrial applications.
