CESEP’19 Conference: 8th International Conference on Carbon for Energy Storage and Environment Protection, October 20-24th, Alicante (Spain)

Abstract

CESEP’19 is the eighth international conference on Carbon for Energy Storage and Environment Protection. The conference is organized by the Spanish Group of Carbon (GEC) and will be held in Alicante, Spain. Carbon materials play a major role in a large number of highly specialized applications -as structural and functional materials- related with current industrial challenges. The underlying reasons for this are their flexible coordination chemistry that allows almost infinite possibilities of structures, and their ability to react with other heteroatoms to incorporate functional groups that determine the self-organization, chemical stability and reactivity. Topical areas include structural and nanotextural characterization, gas separation and gas storage, solar energy conversion, carbon as catalyst and catalyst support, adsorption of gas-phase pollutants, carbon in green chemistry and recycling processes, carbon for water production and remediation, supercapacitors, lithium batteries and other advanced batteries, fuel cells, biological and health applications of carbons, carbon materials in sensor and biosensor, in-situ and operando studies, simulation and computational methods, demonstration systems.
