Fully booked : Liquid Salts for Energy and Materials: Faraday Discussion

Introduction

In 1834, Michael Faraday reported his first discovery of the laws of electrolysis, mostly through experiments in molten salts. The field has continued to grow ever since, with developments of various liquid salts, including, but not limited to, oxide melts, ionic liquids, and deep eutectic solvents.

In the context of the global challenges facing our present civilisation, energy technologies and their supporting materials are crucial. A great many opportunities remain, particularly for thermal, electrochemical and nuclear energy vectors in relation to liquid salts. Even fossil energy, and the related CO₂ capture, conversion and utilisation can be accommodated efficiently in liquid salts-based processes and devices.

Thanks to their great range of working temperatures, liquid salt innovations can offer significant benefits for improving energy efficiency and reducing the environmental impact of the production of many materials and of processing technologies. Yet, technological advancement relies heavily on a sound understanding of the underlying science of the huge number of liquid salts and their widely varying properties.

With a focus on energy and materials, this Faraday Discussion will offer a unique opportunity for all scientists and engineers to present, discuss and debate recent discoveries and future developments in relation to the understanding and applications of liquid salts, particularly at elevated temperatures.

Themes

Benefits to energy efficiency and environmental impact

This session will discuss energy efficiency in process chemistry and engineering including, but not limited to, production and processing of both known and new materials in liquid salts, such as:
? nanostructured silicon, carbon, and ceramics,
? carbon-metal, carbon-ceramic, and metal-ceramic hybrids,
? biomass extractions and derivatives.

Improvements of energy conversion and storage

This session will cover energy conversion, thermal and electrochemical energy storage, CO₂ capture and utilisation, and the related materials issues and innovation, with a highlight of recent progresses in supercapacitors, direct carbon fuel cells, the so called molten-air rechargeable batteries, and others.

Developments for nuclear reactors and spent fuels processing

Molten salts based reactors are discussed in conjunction with improved and novel technologies for processing spent fuels in both ionic liquids and molten salts, including the electrolytic approach.

Advancement in knowledge of phenomena and processes

Advancements in all fundamental aspects of ionic liquids, deep eutectic solvents, oxide melts, and molten salts, specifically interfacial phenomena and processes, will be discussed and debated in relation to energy conversion and storage, and the supporting materials.

Aims

This Faraday Discussion aims to bring together scientists and engineers from academia and industry to discuss and debate the state of the art in liquid salts, to development of a better understanding of their fundamental properties and how their application can help in addressing some of the most important current global challenges.

Format

The Faraday Division have been organising high impact Faraday Discussions in rapidly developing areas of physical chemistry and its interfaces with other scientific disciplines for over 100 years.
Faraday Discussions have a special format where research papers written by the speakers are distributed to all participants before the meeting, and most of the meeting is devoted to discussing the papers. Everyone contributes to the discussion - including presenting their own relevant research.
The research papers and a record of the discussion are published in the journal Faraday Discussions.

The format of the Faraday Discussions meeting is ideal for discussions that transgress the many emerging experimental technologies and theoretical approaches. An auxiliary benefit of the meeting is to bring together established researchers in the field with the new community coming through.

Abstract Submission

Oral Abstracts and Research Papers

A full research paper containing new unpublished results always accompanies oral presentations at Faraday Discussions. Submit an oral/paper abstract if you wish to be considered for an oral presentation and associated published paper. The oral/paper abstract should outline current research in progress. Authors of the selected abstracts must then submit a full research paper with a significant amount of new, unpublished work by 14 December 2015.

The research papers are reviewed upon submission and are sent to all delegates 4 weeks before the meeting so they can be read in advance. At the meeting the presenting author is allowed five minutes to highlight the main points of their paper, and the rest of the time is for discussion. The discussion is recorded and will be published alongside the research paper in the Faraday Discussion Volume.

Poster Abstracts

Submit your poster abstract by 14 March 2016. Posters are displayed throughout the meeting and a poster session is held on the first evening. The Faraday Division Poster Prize will be awarded to the best poster presented by a student at the conference. Bursaries are available for student and younger members of the 澳门六合彩开奖记录 in the early stages of their career (typically within 5 years of completing a first or postgraduate degree). See the bursary page for more details.

Additional Information

Authors will be notified of the outcome of the review process within about 6 weeks of the submission deadline. The abstracts should be no longer than one A4 page in portrait layout. Please ensure you provide the details of the presenting author and indicate whether you are submitting an abstract for oral or poster presentation.

Venue

The Nottingham University, Ningbo, China

The Nottingham University, Ningbo, China, The University of Nottingham Ningbo China, 199 Taikang East Road, Ningbo, ., China

Faraday Discussion will take place in the International Conference Centre (ICC), University of Nottingham Ningbo (UNNC). ICC sits by the campus river, at the extension direction of Nottingham’s landmark building Clock Tower.

Established in 2004, The University of Nottingham Ningbo China was the first Sino-foreign University to open its doors in China. The campus is located in the Ningbo Higher Education Park, Yinzhou district of Ningbo, Zhejiang province. As a thriving port and business city, Ningbo is well located for Shanghai, with high-speed rail links connecting to the two cities in around two hours.

Travel Guidance

Arrive in Ningbo
If you arrive at Ningbo airport/train station/coach station, a taxi to the University is the most efficient way to reach campus. It takes about 30 minutes and costs 30-50 RMB. Non-Chinese Speaker can Show the address below to the taxi driver:
Address: 199 Taikang East Road, University Park, Ningbo
您好，请带我去宁波诺丁汉大学, 地址：宁波市鄞州区高教园区泰康东路199号

Arrive in Shanghai
If you arrive at Shanghai, you can go to Ningbo by coach or by train. Shanghai has two airports - Shanghai Pudong Airport, mainly for international flights and Shanghai Hongqiao Airport, mainly for domestic flights. Hongqiao Airport is very close to Hongqiao Train Station, we suggest you take metro line 10 or Line 2 to Hongqiao Railway Station and go to Ningbo via train. It only takes 5 minutes from Hongqiao airport to Train station. Pudong airport is about 50 km and one hour drive away from train or coach station.

By coach: On arriving at Shanghai Pudong Airport, you should first transfer to Shanghai South Long-Distance Bus Station which takes around one hour depending on traffic conditions. There are two options to get there:
-Take a taxi (around 200 RMB)
-Take Airport Bus Line No. 7 (20 RMB)
The Airport Bus Line No. 7 drops you right outside Shanghai South Long-Distance Bus Station. The ticket from Shanghai to Ningbo can be bought at the station and costs around 100 RMB. The trip takes two to three hours. Coaches are available every 30 to 50 minutes and between the hours of 07:20 and 20:00.

By train: On arriving at Shanghai Pudong Airport you should transfer to Shanghai Hongqiao Railway Station. This takes approximately one hour depending on traffic conditions. There are two options to get there:
-Take a taxi (around 200 RMB)
-Take Metro Line No. 2 (8 RMB and about 90 minutes)
The train from Shanghai to Ningbo is now only one-hour-forty-minutes. Further details on trains can be found using the link on this page.
