Course on thermochemical conversion of biomass and residues and biorefineries (22-23 October)

This Doctoral course brings the opportunity to PhD students to present their work in a multidisciplinary context along with presentations of international experts from leading Universities and Research Centers. The course is oriented for PhD students and young researchers with a background in Process Engineering and interested in recent advances for thermochemical conversion of biomass and residues.

The course will cover the following topics:
• Experimental tests (measurements and protocols)
• Conceptual design of thermochemical biorefineries (modeling and techno-economic assessment)
• Technical development in syngas cleaning
• Environmental impact of biomass and residues valorization

The course is organized by the Chemical and Environmental Engineering Department of the University of Seville. We thank the participation of Chalmers University of Technology (Sweden), Politecnico de Milano (Italy), Joint Research Center (JRC, European Commission) and CIEMAT (Spain).

Concurso de Abengoa sobre gestión sostenible del agua para el Manchester United

Abengoa has recently become the Official Sustainable Technology Partner of Manchester United and together launch the first “Reds Go Green Water Initiative” contest. This contest has been developed with the aim of increase the university students commitment with renewable energies and sustainable development, in connection with sport.

All university students who are over 18 of age and a citizen of Europe, China, USA, South Africa or United kingdom, with knowledge and interest about water management and water treatment, may enter the contest.

It will be selected five winners, each one from one of the geographies mentioned earlier, who will participate in the development of water reuse project that Abengoa will carry out at the premises of the English team.

You can obtain more information here or either sending an e-mail to redsgogreen@abengoa.com.
