Interview with FlowPhotoChem Coordinator Dr Pau Farràs

2023-09-08T11:43:27+01:00March 14th, 2023|PI Spotlight, Project News, University News|

Dr Pau Farràs, University of Galway FlowPhotoChem Coordinator Dr Pau Farràs based at the University of Galway in Ireland took some time to respond to questions about his research interests, the photoelectrochemistry field and the role his group ChemLight (https://www.universityofgalway.ie/chemlight/) plays within the FlowPhotoChem project. How and when did you first become interested in photoelectrochemistry?  I have been interested in renewable energy since I finished my undergraduate studies. I did my Erasmus project at DTU (Denmark) on hydrogen storage materials and since then, hydrogen has been on my radar. Then, I learnt about solar energy conversion technologies such as photoelectrochemistry, [...]

FlowPhotoChem EU-Africa meeting and exploitation workshop, November 2022

2023-09-08T13:01:59+01:00December 13th, 2022|Project News, public dissemination, University News|

The FlowPhotoChem team met for our third face-to-face meeting in Kampala, Uganda on the 2nd of November 2022. At the meeting, hosted by Kyambogo University, partners gave updates on their work developing the photoelectrochemical, electrochemical and photocatalytic flow reactors, which will be combined into an integrated demonstrator reactor for the production of ethylene. We also continued our life cycle analysis work. To further our EU-Africa activities, the team hosted a 'Workshop on Innovations for a New Age of the Chemical Industry' on the 4th of November, led by our PI Dr Justus Masa of Kyambogo University. Approximately 80 people joined the [...]

Introducing FlowPhotoChem publication lay summaries for interested non-specialists

2023-09-08T13:14:36+01:00October 17th, 2022|Project News, public dissemination, University News|

Stefan D. A. Zondag Special thanks to PhD candidate Stefan Zondag of the University of Amsterdam for kicking things off and setting the bar high with our first FlowPhotoChem publication lay summary. His recent co-authored paper, "Scale-Up of a Heterogeneous Photocatalytic Degradation Using a Photochemical Rotor–Stator Spinning Disk Reactor" gathered a great deal of interest on social media and at a conference as a result of a poster presentation. As a result, Stefan kindly prepared a lay summary of the popular paper describing the importance and relevance of their study in the context of FlowPhotoChem and the photoelectrochemistry field.
