Special theme this year: Low-temperature fuel-cell and electrolysis technologies
Venue: Meeting room 1, building 101 at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), Lyngby
Conference dinner in Jagtslottet at Schæffergården, Jægersborg Allé 166, Gentofte
Abstract Deadline - Extended: 15th of September
The Event: The Danish Electrochemical Society (DEF) is organising an annual two-day conference on Electrochemical Science and Technology. This year the event is co-organised by various Danish R&D projects revolving around Fuel-Cell and Electrolysis technologies for operation at low temperatures (< 200 ºC) such as polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM)-based cells and alkaline electrolysis cells. The aim of this special arrangement is to facilitate the dissemination of the current status and key findings from the projects. The co-organising projects are:
4M Centre, NonPrecious, SmartMEA, UPCAT, UPGRADE/Biofuel, BEEST, Wind2H, e-STORE, HEALTH-CODE, KDFuelCell, Power2Hydrogen/HyBalance, and Z-gap/PorouZ
Topics: The special theme this year is low-temperature fuel-cell and electrolysis technologies, including PEM fuel cells, PEM electrolysis, alkaline electrolysis, and other power-to-fuel/chemicals conversion. There will be particular thematic sessions with invited as well as contributing speakers, which will make this part of the conference a particularly valuable forum for everyone interested in fuel cells and electrolysis at any level. However, the conference also highly welcomes contributions from other parts of both fundamental and applied electrochemistry. Thus, presentations from areas such as energy conversion and storage in general (fuel cells, electrolysis, solar cells, batteries), electrocatalysis, corrosion, physical and analytical electrochemistry, (bio-)sensors, ionic liquids, computational and theoretical electrochemistry, and chemically modified electrodes, are also strongly encouraged. The society welcomes both academic and industrial researchers / professionals at all career stages to present their work. Presentations for the conference may be based either on completed research projects or on ongoing research. There will be prizes for the best oral and poster presentations given by students / postdocs.
Invited Speakers: This year's meeting has four invited speakers concentrating on different aspects of low-temperature fuel cells, electrolysis, and related electrocatalysis:
23-25 May 2018, Technical University of Denmark
First announcement and call for abstracts
The Nordic Corrosion Congress is a recognized event to present and discuss the newest developments and knowledge within the field of corrosion.
The Congress seeks to combine scientific knowledge, industrial experiences and innovating developments to solve the corrosion problems of today and tomorrow. The topics of the congress illustrate that corrosion is a challenge in many different technological areas.

The Danish Electrochemical Society (DEF) is organising an annual two-day conference on Electrochemical Science and Technology, which will be held the 2nd and 3rd of November 2017. This year the event is co-organised by a number of R&D projects revolving around Fuel Cell and Electrolysis technologies for operation at low temperatures (< 200 ºC) such as polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM)-based cells and alkaline electrolysis cells. This area will be given special focus, though the conference still welcomes contributions from other parts of both fundamental and applied electrochemistry.
Special theme this year: Low-temperature fuel-cell and electrolysis technologies
Venue: Technical University of Denmark, Lyngby
Abstract deadline: 1st of September
Look here for more information.
Time and Date: 16:30-18:30, December 12th, 2016
Location: Room S10, Meeting Centre at DTU, Building 101, Lyngby
Speaker: The speaker this year is Professor Lars Peter Nielsen, Institute for Bioscience, Aarhus University. Who will give a presentation titled: "Nature is Electrified by Cable Bacteria".
Abstract: Until 5 years ago nobody had imagined the living organisms with internal electrical wiring would exist. New research has shown that these so-called Cable Bacteria are widely abundant in aqueous environments, and they have the length of several centimeters. Their internal wiring is short-circuiting different half-cell reactions with wide implications for the biogeochemical cycling of matter. We can measure electrical fields and geochemical effects, but so far we do not fully understand how their internal, electrical wiring is constructed and how the electron transfer takes place.
