Asylum seeker to FŷAV – featuring a talk on Graphene industrial applications towards decarbonisation

17 February 2022 19:00-20:00, United Kingdom


Introduction
Asylum seeker to FŷAV – featuring a talk on Graphene industrial applications towards decarbonisation by Dr Sivasambu Bohm, FŷAV, FTSC.

On-line Webinar on Thursday 17th February, 1900-2000

Abstract
Removal of 100 to 1,000 gigatonnes of CO2 this century may be needed to achieve deep decarbonizationand avoid exceeding the 1.5°C climate target. Nano wonder materials and nanotechnology is playing a key role. Graphene has found its use in numerous industrial applications due to its unique properties. Graphene is widely recognized as a “wonder material” due to the myriad of unique attributes it holds. It is a potent conductor of electrical and thermal energy, extremely lightweight chemically inert, and flexible with a large surface area. It is also considered eco-friendly and sustainable, with possibilities for numerous applications. The current bottlenecks in using graphene & graphene oxide are the availability of cost-effective, high-quality materials from graphite and their effective incorporation into the product matrices. On overcoming these factors, graphene may attract significant demands in terms of volume consumption. Graphene can be produced on industrial scales using processes such as chemical, electrochemical, and/or high-pressure mechanical exfoliation. Graphene depending on end applications can be chemically tuned and modified via functionalisation so that easy incorporation into product matrices is possible.  Dr Bohm has been involved in graphene chemistry for 40 years and he will discuss Graphene advanced production methods and their impact on the quality of graphene produced in terms of energy input and quality. Graphene’s additive role in Inks, Anti-corrosion coatings, PEM Fuel cells, Li-ion batteries, Redox flow batteries will be briefly discussed as well as commercial development of industrial energy storage applications.
