1st International Conference on Materials for Energy
04 January 2010
The DECHEMA Gesellschaft für Chemische Technik und Biotechnologie e. V. (Society for Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology), a non-profit scientific and technical society based in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, and partners are organizing the 1st International Conference on Materials for Energy, to be held in Karlsruhe, Germany 4-8 July 2010. The Call for Papers has been extended to 11 January.
The program of the conference will cover current topics and recent progress in the science and technology of energy and new materials, including the nanoscale origin of macroscopic properties. All aspects of materials for energy production and conversion, energy storage, energy transport, and energy saving will be addressed.
Materials are important to efficient harvesting of sun light, harvesting energy from temperature gradients with thermoelectric materials, providing energy storage technology e.g. in batteries and via hydrogen storage, and enabling light-weight materials for transportation. Materials are central to every energy technology; the future will place increasing demands on materials performance with respect to extremes in stress, strain, temperature, pressure, chemical reactivity, photon or radiation flux, and electric or magnetic fields.

In addition to DECHEMA, the conference is being organized by:
- Karlsruhe Institute of Technology
- MRS (Materials Research Society)
- E-MRS (European Materials Research Society)
- Nanomat
