Scientific trends of the conference

  • Cat­alyt­ic process­es for valu­ables pro­duc­tion from bio­mass
  • Cat­a­lyst appli­ca­tion for clean syn-gas and clean hydro­gen pro­duc­tion, pow­er and CHP via bio­mass gasi­fi­ca­tion
  • Catal­y­sis in com­bus­tion and co-com­bus­­tion of renew­able sources
  • Cat­alyt­ic inter­ester­i­fi­ca­tion and hydro­c­rack­ing of lipids to bio­fu­el
  • Cat­alyt­ic approach to pro­duc­tion of bio­fu­els via bio­mass pyrol­y­sis
  • Bio­catal­y­sis: Fer­men­ta­tion and enzy­mat­ic process­es for bio­fu­els pro­duc­tion

The Orga­niz­ing Com­mit­tee plans to offer the par­tic­i­pants the vis­its to the pow­er plants, as well as the objects on pro­duc­tion and obtain­ing of the bio­log­i­cal mate­ri­als, the prod­ucts of fine and organ­ic syn­the­sis from renew­able raw mate­ri­als dur­ing the con­fer­ence and post-con­fer­­ence peri­od.

The offi­cial lan­guage of the con­fer­ence is Eng­lish.

The goal of con­gress is to pro­vide a glob­al plat­form for researchers and engi­neers com­ing from acad­e­mia and indus­try to present their research results and activ­i­ties in the field of mate­ri­als sci­ence and engi­neer­ing with a spe­cial atten­tion on inter­dis­ci­pli­nary research of advanced mate­ri­als. The con­fer­ence will pro­vide oppor­tu­ni­ties for the del­e­gates to exchange their face-to-face nov­el ideas and expe­ri­ences with the inter­na­tion­al experts dur­ing ple­nary & invit­ed talks, oral pre­sen­ta­tions and poster ses­sions. We will set up ten ses­sions with keynote forum, pan­el dis­cus­sion, project nego­ti­a­tion along with wel­come cock­tail and gala din­ner.

Catal­y­sis Soci­ety of Japan will orga­nize this meet­ing as a con­tin­u­a­tion of TOCAT (1990), TOCAT2 (1994), TOCAT3 (1998), TOCAT4 (2002), TOCAT5 (2006) and TOCAT6/APCAT5 (2010). The past six TOCAT con­fer­ences have earned a good rep­u­ta­tion as a new series of inter­na­tion­al con­fer­ences on catal­y­sis that has sig­nif­i­cant­ly filled the gap between research and tech­nol­o­gy in catal­y­sis.
 
Scope
Stim­u­lat­ing clos­er ties between acad­e­mia and indus­try and encour­ag­ing young researchers in the field of catal­y­sis are the cen­tral con­cept of this con­fer­ence. This con­fer­ence sould great­ly con­tribute to exchang­ing new ideas and tech­nolo­gies and pro­mot­ing devel­op­ments of new out­stand­ing cat­a­lysts and sys­tems under the scope that catal­y­sis is a high­ly and eager­ly demand­ed tech­nol­o­gy in indus­tries and for sus­tain­able soci­ety and dri­ves inno­va­tion in many oth­er fields.

Papers on the fol­low­ing top­ics are wel­come.
Gen­er­al Ses­sion

  • New con­cepts for catal­y­sis
  • Advanced mate­ri­als for catal­y­sis
  • Fun­da­men­tals and char­ac­ter­i­za­tion
  • Green and sus­tain­able catal­y­sis
  • Envi­ron­men­tal catal­y­sis
  • Catal­y­sis in ener­gy con­ver­sion
  • Bio­catal­y­sis
  • Pho­to­catal­y­sis
  • Sol­id acids and bases
  • Selec­tive oxi­da­tion
  • Organometal­lic catal­y­sis
  • Reac­tor engi­neer­ing

 
Indus­tri­al Ses­sion

  • Emis­sion con­trol
  • Green and sus­tain­able process­es
  • Petro­le­um refin­ing and petro­chem­i­cals
  • Fine and chi­ral syn­the­sis
  • Poly­mer­iza­tion

11th International Symposium: Scientific Bases for the Preparation of Heterogeneous Catalysts — PREPA11
Jul 6 – Jul 11 all-day

 
Web­site: 11th Inter­na­tion­al Sym­po­sium: PREPA 11
 
It has become a tra­di­tion that every four years, the Uni­ver­sité catholique de Lou­vain and the Katholieke Uni­ver­siteit Leu­ven joint­ly orga­nize a sym­po­sium devot­ed to the sci­en­tif­ic bases for the prepa­ra­tion of het­ero­ge­neous cat­a­lysts. These meet­ings bring togeth­er researchers from acad­e­mia and indus­try and offer a forum for dis­cus­sions on the chem­istry involved in the prepa­ra­tion of indus­tri­al het­ero­ge­neous cat­a­lysts.
We cor­dial­ly invite all sci­en­tists active in the field of het­ero­ge­neous catal­y­sis to par­tic­i­pate in the 11th Inter­na­tion­al Sym­po­sium on Sci­en­tif­ic Bases for the Prepa­ra­tion of Het­ero­ge­neous Cat­a­lysts.

The sci­en­tif­ic pro­gram will con­sist of invit­ed lec­tures, oral and poster pre­sen­ta­tions.

Con­tri­bu­tions are solicit­ed that focus on the aspects of cat­a­lyst prepa­ra­tion. Reports on physi­­co-chem­i­­cal char­ac­ter­is­tics of cat­a­lysts and cat­alyt­ic per­for­mances should be lim­it­ed to cor­re­la­tions with the prepa­ra­tion para­me­ters.

Papers will be select­ed by a sci­en­tif­ic com­mit­tee, con­sist­ing of rep­re­sen­ta­tives from indus­try of catal­y­sis (man­u­fac­tur­ers and users), based on the sci­en­tif­ic val­ue of the abstract, nov­el­ty and the com­pli­ance of the sub­ject to the sym­po­sium top­ics.

Main Topics

  • Inno­v­a­tive approach­es in cat­a­lyst prepa­ra­tion for spe­cif­ic per­for­mances and pur­pos­es
  • Advanced prepa­ra­tions of cat­a­lysts and sup­ports
  • Key con­cepts and tools in cat­a­lyst prepa­ra­tion
