Working Party Events
Symposia on Electrochemical Engineering (ESEE)
The main aim of this Symposium series is to provide fora for presentations and discussions of recent developments and applications in Electrochemical Engineering and Applied Electrochemistry.
13th European Symposium on Electrochemical Engineering 2023
Toulouse, France, 26-29 June 2023 (EFCE Event No. 793)
The 13th ESEE 2023 is organised by the Universite de Toulouse III Paul Sabatier, Laboratoire de Génie Chimique in cooperation with the EFCE Working Party on Electrochemical Engineering.
This symposium expects: to enable to you to share the advances of research in the field of the electrochemical engineering and the electrochemistry; to strongly promote fascinating discussions and fruitful exchanges on any electrochemical field, to stimulate the required synergy for the generation of multilateral research collaborations, between academic and/or industrial researchers, junior and/or senior, on any research and/or research and development related to electrochemistry and/or electrochemical processes. The scientific programme will focus on Electrochemical Engineering as the key enabling overcoming current societal problematics: ENERGY - ENVIRONMENT - LIFE…
Topics
The call for papers is open.
Deadline for abstract submission: 31 March 2023
Contributions from PhD students are strongly encouraged.
