Reducing carbon emissions through advanced functional ceramic materials

Functional ceramics are materials designed for specific, practical purposes, going beyond mere decoration. They are engineered to have properties like electrical, thermal, mechanical, or magnetic qualities, making them indispensable in a wide range of applications from common household items to high-tech industries.

The focus of the symposium will be to present and discuss recent advances in functional ceramics that can lead to reduced carbon emissions and increased sustainability. IN person and on-line contributions are therefore invited on topics that result in environmental net gain, lower carbon emissions and reduced ecological impact.

Exemplars include, but are not limited to, novel battery technologies, fuel cells, low energy/temperature fabrication of functional materials, lead-free electroceramics, recycling technologies and green extraction and processing of raw materials.


The symposium is organised in collaboration with the EU Simu-lingua Programme part of the AI Foundation models in science (GenAI4EU)
