Electrifying Technical Organic Syntheses
~the first major technology platform that drives the transfer of electroorganic syntheses from the laboratory to industrial scale~


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.

Winter School in January 2022

January 27 and 28, 2022 each from 9:00 to 15:30

Electroorganic synthesis is an important building block in sustainable chemistry for the defossilization of the chemical industry. As part of the BMBF Future Cluster Initiative, ETOS plans to be the first major technology platform to build bridges between organic synthesis chemistry and (electro)chemical process and reaction engineering and to generate novel solutions and key technologies for sustainable, robust and future-proof processes and products along the entire value chain. The Winter School gives students an overview of the chemical and engineering challenges of developing this alternative sustainable technology.

The aim of the Winter School is to teach the basics of the technology and process development and optimization up to industrial competitiveness using this application example. Participation in the event is free of charge and is confirmed by a certificate.

Speakers will include Dr. Nicola Aust (BASF), Prof. Dr. Siegfried R. Waldvogel (JGU Mainz), Prof. Dr.-Ing. Ulrike Krewer (KIT Karlsruhe), Prof. Dr.-Ing. Bastian J. M. Etzold (TU Darmstadt) and Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jörg Sauer (KIT Karlsruhe).

Topics:

- Chemical fundamentals of organic electrosynthesis
- electrodes
- Electrolyzers
- Electrochemical processes
The event will take place as a digital event. Registration is possible until January 26, 2022 via

https://www.aksw.uni-mainz.de/etos-winterschool-januar-2022/

We will send you the link and the access data required for the event separately by e-mail. We look forward to your participation!

If you have any questions, please contact Leon Schmidt: leon.schmidt@kit.edu
