Opportunities and challenges within electrification of the process industries - Thematic Workshop
Thu 24 Oct
|BluePoint
The workshop will be held at A.SPIRE - a pivotal event, bringing together the European Process Industry, will focus on driving innovation and collaboration within the industrial landscape.
Time & Location
24 Oct 2024, 14:00 – 15:30
BluePoint, Blvd Auguste Reyers 80, 1030 Brussels, Belgium
About the event
Renewable energy (solar, wind and hydropower) is delivered in the form of electricity, and the optimum use of that energy is directly as electricity, rather than via production of intermediate energy carriers such as hydrogen or its derivatives (methanol, ammonia, etc.). Beyond the immediate effect of reducing emissions, electrification can also contribute to grid balancing services. The workshop will introduce a set of different projects that will explain how electricity can be efficiently exploited in the process industries, such as
· What electrification technologies are under investigation?
· What are the processes that underpin the electrification transition?
· What are the benefits that these projects can provide for the process industries, beyond the clear climate and environmental benefits?
Electrochemistry, resistive heating, microwave heating and plasma technologies will be covered. More information and Registration link: Second Process Industry Conference: Shaping the Transformation on 23 and 24 October 2024 in Brussels | A.SPIRE (aspire2050.eu)
