Since April 1st 2023, the BMBF future cluster "Electrifying Technical Organic Syntheses" (ETOS) is in the first implementation period. ETOS is the first major technology platform that drives the transfer of electroorganic syntheses from the laboratory to industrial scale and aims to generate innovative solutions for sustainable, robust, future-proof processes and products.
The lower part of the Upper Rhine and the Rhine-Main region is one of the most potent chemical regions in Germany, home to some of the world's leading chemical companies. In ETOS, academic and industry players are working together to build an infrastructure for the large-scale establishment of organic electrosynthesis in the chemical and pharmaceutical industry. The leading institutions are the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Energy Conversion (MPI CEC) with Prof. Dr. Siegfried R. Waldvogel as spokesperson and Prof. Dr.-Ing. Ulrike Krewer as co-spokesperson at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). The Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU), TU Darmstadt, RPTU Kaiserslautern-Landau and FAU Erlangen-Nuremberg, as well as non-university research institutions, complete the expertise along the research in the field of electrosynthesis.

Feedback on the Winter School on January 27/28, 2022
The first winter school for the ETOS network took place on January 27/28, 2022. More than 60 potential junior employees were introduced to the topic of organic electrosynthesis, electrodes, electrolysers and electrochemical processes and learned about the ETOS concept phase project of the BMBF's Future Cluster Initiative.
The workshop provided the participants with knowledge about ETOS. We hope that this aroused great interest in future research in the field of organic electrosynthesis and electrochemical process technologies.
The presentations by Prof. S.R. Waldvogel (JGU Mainz), Prof. Dr.-Ing. U. Krewer (KIT), Prof. Dr.-Ing. J. Sauer (KIT), Prof. Dr.-Ing. B.J.M. Etzold (TU Darmstadt) and Dr. N. Aust (BASF) illuminated the topic from all sides, both from an academic and an industrial perspective.
We would like to thank the participating speakers, cooperation partners, universities and participants for the excellent cooperation, stimulating discussions and positive feedback!
