Global Summit on Chemistry and Chemical Engineering
Catalysis & Reaction Engineering
The Scientific Federation delighted to welcome you to Global Summit on Chemistry & Chemical Engineering which will be held on February 26-27 at Abu Dhabi, UAE. This brings you an immense opportunity to be a part of scientific acceleration to world class personalities, young scholars, scientific delegates and young scientists to join in this forum to utilize the expertise and novelties that brings a new era for innovations in the field of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering which brings well versed scrutinizers at one place. It provides a platform to have open discussions, knowledge sharing and interactive sessions with field experts at GSCCE-2018.
Chemical reactions lie at the heart of processes where molecules are transformed from raw materials to useful products and energy. For the economic utilization of such chemical transformations the unit where they are performed (the reactor) needs to be carefully designed accounting for kinetics, hydrodynamics, mass and heat transfer.
Catalysis plays a significant role in many of these transformations, leading to more efficient and greener processing routes. Catalysts are complex materials that have to satisfy many criteria on multiple scales, in order to be successfully used in catalytic processes. For this purpose an integrated approach, taking into account sustainability and scalability considerations, and combining modeling and experiments, catalysis science and chemical engineering is required. Phenomena at all length scales interact, and for this reason simultaneous catalyst and reactor design is the best route towards optimal performance. We employ a multi-scale (in space and time) design approach that ranges from the microscopic atomistic scale to the macroscopic scale of the reactor. Modeling and experiments are utilized at the various length scales, including sophisticated spectroscopic techniques, quantum and statistical mechanics, process intensification tools and inspiration from nature.
The reactor technologies, catalytic materials and fundamental knowledge developed by the group find applications in diverse areas. These include manufacturing of chemicals, chemical intermediates, pharmaceuticals and nano materials, which find use from consumer products to healthcare. A comprehensive range of applications in the energy domain, such as hydrogen production from water, driven by solar energy or electrolysis, fuel cells, batteries, production of fuels from waste materials or carbon dioxide, and applications that seek to increase energy efficiency are also explored. Particular areas of interest within the group include catalytic pyrolysis, electro catalysis, and micro reactor technology and photo catalysis.
