Hybrid Semiconductor–Molecular Systems for Solar-Driven CO2 Activation
The POWER CO₂ Days! | Sept 7–9, 2026 | Lyon 📍 Day 2: Nano Engineering Can we efficiently convert sunlight into clean energy carriers? The great promise of solar fuels has driven researchers to seek out cheap, eco-compatible, and sustainable processes for CO2 reduction. We are excited to announce that Fabrice Odobel (Université de Nantes, CNRS) will be delivering a Keynote on the cutting-edge "Hybrid Semiconductor–Molecular Systems" making this possible. The first half of his

Unlocking the Isosynthesis Mechanism with Jim de Ruiter
The POWER CO₂ Days! September 7 - 9 2026 in Lyon Day 1, 7th September: Next Frontier C3+ How does CO hydrogenation over ZrO₂ catalysts selectively produce branched hydrocarbons like isobutene? The secret lies in finding the exact reaction bottleneck. We are excited to share that researcher Jim de Ruiter will deliver a Oral Presentation detailing the rate-determining step of this critical reaction. 💡 Session Highlights: Mechanistic Insights: Tracing the activation and subsequ
