GlobH2E Summer School
Advanced Characterisation Techniques and Studies in Catalysis for Power Fuels including Hydrogen
DATE: 18 - 20 November 2024
Over the past decades, sustainable solutions and strategies have been investigated and developed to enable decarbonisation. Catalysis plays an essential role in decarbonisation by increasing energy efficiency, reducing carbon emissions, capturing carbon greenhouse gas emissions, and utilising clean energy sources to replace fossil fuels. Characterisation is critical for both the design and development of catalyst as well as for process development and optimisation including large scale production, which remains a challenge and require comprehensive understanding of the relationship between catalytic performance and physiochemical properties of catalyst in order to create a catalytic system that is highly efficient and economically viable for commercialisation.
The inaugural GlobH2E Summer School focusing on catalysis characterisation aims to:
-
Equip participants with a comprehensive understanding of system design and advanced characterisation techniques applicable to P2X technologies
-
Identify key challenges and potential solutions in the characterisation and development of P2X technologies
-
Provide opportunity for researcher to discuss their own research work and exchange with the scientists involved in this area.
-
Promote innovation and accelerate the adoption of P2X Technologies for a sustainable energy future.
Throughout the program, participants will attend a mix of lectures and hands on tutorials, case studies and guided social networking event. Participants will have the opportunity to learn from international experts in the field, develop in depth technical understanding on catalyst characterisation techniques and a broad appreciation of the techno-economical opportunities associated with energy conversion.
Topics covered include but not limited to:
-
Catalysis (Photocatalysis, Thermal Catalysis, Photo Electro Catalysis, Photo Thermal Catalysis, Electrocatalysis and Plasma Catalysis)
-
Reactor and System Design
-
In-situ Characterisation (XAS, Soft XAS, FTIR, etc)
-
Operando Characterisation
-
Techno-economic analysis from lab to scale
