Fossilfri konkurrenskraft -- Nu genomförs färdplanerna

Details
Written by Organisers

När: 27 oktober, klockan 9 - 15:30

Var: Berns Salonger, Stockholm
Hur långt har arbetet med utvecklingen av en fossilfri industri och fossilfria transporter kommit?

För tre år sedan lämnade de första branscherna in sina färdplaner för fossilfri konkurrenskraft till regeringen och visade upp hur de kan utvecklas och vilka åtgärder som krävs för att de ska nå klimatmålen.

Sedan dess har 22 branscher tagit fram färdplaner och nu är det dags att ta temperaturen på hur det går med genomförandet. Vilka åtgärder har vidtagits, vilka tekniska innovationer har börjat utvecklas och vad har hänt med de politiska förslagen?

Program
09:00 Nu genomförs färdplanerna!

Per Bolund, miljö- och klimatminister
Ibrahim Baylan, näringsminister
Malin Strand, projektledare, Fossilfritt Sverige
Svante Axelsson, nationell samordnare, Fossilfritt Sverige

09:30 Full fart framåt – branscher i förändring

Stora steg har tagits inom till exempel stålbranschen, elbranschen, fordonsbranschen och återvinningsindustrin. Lyssna på industriledarnas erfarenheter och planer för framtiden.

Fossilfritt stål - Martin Lindqvist, vd och Koncernchef SSAB
Plaståtervinning på riktigt - Mattias Philipsson, vd Svensk Plaståtervinning
Byggsektorn ställer om - Lena Hök, hållbarhetsdirektör Skanska
Nya möjligheter med trä - Lotta Lyrå, vd Södra
Alla ska ha el - Åsa Pettersson, vd Energiföretagen

Förnybara drivmedel och system - Programkonferens 2021

Förnybara drivmedel och system - Programkonferens 2021

 Tisdag, 16 november 2021 klockan 13:00

 Digitalt under två eftermiddagar

Under två eftermiddagar den 16-17 november genomförs den avslutande programkonferensen för samverkansprogrammet Förnybara drivmedel och system.

Målet med samverkansprogrammet är att sprida kunskap om och öka systemförståelsen för hur hållbara förnybara drivmedel kan bidra till transportsektorns fossilfrihet.

Vad kan du förvänta dig?

Forskningsprojekten i programmet bidrar med analyser som kan stödja vetenskapligt underbyggda beslut fattade av politiker, myndigheter, industri och andra organisationer.

Under konferensen kommer forskarna själva berätta om resultaten från de mest aktuella projekten och du får möjlighet att bredda din kunskapsbas om transportsektorns hållbara energiförsörjning.

Hur?

Konferensen genomförs digitalt under två eftermiddagar. I bokningssteget väljer du om du vill delta under båda dagarna eller en av dem. Mer information om konferensprogrammet kommer att publiceras inom kort.

Välkommen!

Samverkanprogrammet Förnybara drivmedel och system finansieras av Energimyndigheten och f3 Svenskt kunskapscentrum för förnybara drivmedel.

European Biomass Conference & Exhibit

Written by EUBCE Organiser

 

EUBCE 2022 | 9th - 12th May ONLINE & ONSITE






Heinz Ossenbrink
Former European Commission JRC
EUBCE Online Coordinator



Here we go!

We are proud to present you a re-structured call for abstracts for the EUBCE 2022.

The 2022 European Biomass Conference & Exhibit will mark the 30th edition of our EUBCE. It will also feature an expanded scope on biobased products with the “Bio-based Industries Joint Undertaking” as strategic partner. While there is no guarantee, we do feel confident that we re-start an EUBCE 2022 returning to real-world interaction

Nevertheless the online experience of the last two editions of the on-line EUBCE had featured new benefits for presenters, audience and exhibitors. The participation has never been so global before, making the EUBCE the leading Biomass event by allowing presenters and audience to be part of the conference the very first time. Therefore we want the best of both online and real world experience and will make EUBCE 2022 a hybrid event allowing both global reach and face-to-face networking and talks.

In any case I am sure you want to become part of an exciting EUBCE 2022 by providing one, two or more abstracts, no matter whether you will present in person or virtually. Please check our detailed topics description to see that the EUBCE will really be the right conference for you and the right place to share your precious research, your novel ideas and experiences.

Let us meet in Marseille!

Call for papers - 28th International Conference Impacts of Fuel Quality on Power Production and the Environment

cropped Final Logo
When: 19-23 September 2022

Where: Åre, Sweden


This conference, 28th in the series, will highlight solutions to the significant fuel-quality challenges facing power producers using current power technologies such as fluidised bed, sub-critical boilers, incineration, as well as newer technologies such as IGCC, PFBC, super- and ultra-super-critical boilers, oxy-fuel systems and gasifiers. These challenges involve fuel preparation and blending, slagging, fouling, corrosion, aerosol formation, ash disposal, catalyst poisoning, availability and capacity, as well as sensors and control strategies.

The conference emphasises end-results and application of fundamental information to minimise fuel quality impacts on power
production and the environment. The conference will focus on traditional fuels, particularly traded coals, low-grade and low-rank coals and opportunity fuels such as biomass, tires, black liquor, MSW, waste sludge and pet coke. Fundamental studies, pilot-scale investigations, full-scale evaluations and computer simulation papers are encouraged.

Sessions for the conference will include, but are not limited toBio4energy cmyk

• Coal and opportunity fuels such as waste and biomass
• Fuel characterisation, preparation and upgrading
• Co-combustion
• Ash characterisation
• Slagging
• Deposit build-up, consolidation and shedding
• Fly ash and aerosol formation
• Corrosion at high temperatures
• Influence of ash on process performance: Operational and emission problems
• Diagnostics, sensors and controls

Cellulose Workshop 2021 300x150Cellulose Workshop, 15-16 November 2022 at Örnsköldsvik, Sweden

The Cellulose Workshop has over the years developed into an international forum of professionals interested in recent cellulose development. In 2020, 110 participants representing universities, institutes and companies from Austria, Chile, Denmark, France, Germany, Latvia, Norway, Russia, Sweden and USA had registered and at any given time around 70 participants took part in the workshop. The keynote presentations were very interesting and attracted several questions from the international audience.

The next physical two-day Cellulose Workshop has been moved to 2022 and will be held at Örnsköldsvik, Sweden, 15-16 November 2022. We intend to arrange a physical conference, but depending on the Covid-19 pandemic situation in the world, this might be changed.

A conference programme and more information will follow. We look forward to seeing you there.
