Register today! Topic Close-up #14 Symposium I03: Ionic and Mixed Conducting Ceramics 12 Symposium focus: The aim of this symposium is to provide a forum to share both experimental and theoretical studies of ionic conductors and mixed conducting materials, in the areas including fuel cells, batteries, sensors, membranes, electrochemical reactors, and electrosynthesis. The symposium will be sponsored by XTC New Energy Materials (Xiamen) LTD, and will feature the following invited speakers:

Dennis Corrigan’s connection to the ECS community came quite naturally. He had been an ECS member since the 1970s, and when he moved to Detroit to work at General Motors Research Laboratories in 1979, he was naturally inclined to become involved with the ECS Detroit Section. “We had a very large Electrochemistry Department at GM Research Labs of over 60 people and most were active members of the Detroit section. They didn’t have to twist my arm too much to…

Hydrogen gas: it’s storable, can refuel a car in minutes (versus batteries which can take hours to recharge), and its waste product is water. It is the holy grail of clean-energy advocates. The only problem is that the electrolyzers that make hydrogen from renewable energy are quite expensive. But, that soon may change, according to Ars Technica. According to a new paper in Nature Energy, researchers from universities in Germany and at Stanford University have created a financial model for…
