The CPE hosted a delegation from CINE in Brazil for a day of talks and lab tours

The CPE hosted the second workshop with CINE, Brazil.

Day 1 talks on the theme of Batteries included

• Hudson Zanin - Towards high energy storage non-flammable supercapacitor
• Heather Au (Li-S): Lignin carbon fibre-based Li-S batteries
• Gustavo Doubek - Developing New tools for in situ and operando analysis of Li-O2 Batteries
• Nuria Tapia Ruiz -High performance Na ion cathodes for Na ion batteries
• Ann Huang -Sustainable manufacturing of thick battery electrodes with improved performance
• Juarez L. F. da Silva - Atomistic Understanding of Materials for Energy Applications
• Qiley Song-Membrane design for energy storage devices
• Zhenyu Guo-High performance Na ion battery anodes at pouch level
• Huw Shiel -Characterisation of electrochemical interfaces using X-Ray based techniques
• Shelly Conroy- Microscopy techniques (cryoTEM, APT) for battery interface characterisation
• Cecilia Mattevi-3D priming of energy storage devices

And Day 2 focused on electro (photo)catalysis:

• Marcos Quiles-machine leaning for energy devices
• Pablo Sebastián Fernández - Looking at electrochemistry through an in situ multi-technique approach
• Reshma Rao-Electrocatalysts for water splitting
• Raphael Nagao - Ammonia Electrocatalytic Synthesis from Nitrate Reduction on Copper Oxides Catalysts
• Anna Hankin- large scale solar reactors
• Juliano A. Bonacin – Prussian blue and its analogues as catalysts for water oxidation under mild conditions
• Jesus Barrio- Electrocatalysts design for ORR and CO2 RR
• Salvador Eslava-Photocatalysts for H₂ production and CO₂ reduction
• Camille Petit-gas phase photocatalysis for CO2 reduction
• Ifan Stephens- N2 electroreduction

We are pleased to hear that this collaboration has resulted in a joint proposal that has just been submitted to EPSRC.
