LLE: Electrocatalysis for Sustainable Chemical Manufacturing and Pollution Remediation (Astrid Müller, University of Rochester)

WB116 @ 200 College St.

Abstract Electrocatalysis has the potential to revolutionize the production of chemicals and consumer goods in an environmentally sustainable manner, by replacing traditional fossil fuel based processes with energy-efficient technologies powered by renewable electricity. This approach also holds great promise in addressing global challenges related to the remediation of per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) water pollutants. […]

Disruptors & Dilemmas presents: Building up: Infrastructure for good

Online

As cities grow at an unprecedented pace, the need for smart, sustainable infrastructure has never been greater. But true sustainability isn’t just about better materials or more efficient design—it’s about people. Infrastructure has the power to enable choice, transform communities and shape lives.   What if we stopped building for people and started building with them? Imagine infrastructure […]

LLE: To Sustainability and Beyond! A Computer-aided Story on a Circular Carbon Economy (André Bardow, ETH Zurich)

WB116 @ 200 College St.

Abstract Our current linear way of producing chemicals and fuels is unsustainable. The petrochemical industry needs to transform from its current fossil basis to renewable resources for its energy and raw materials. Since chemicals and most fuels cannot be decarbonized in the literal sense, renewable carbon sources are needed to close the carbon cycle. In […]
