"Heavy Industry Decarbonisation and Energy Transition" is a short course that focuses on decarbonization challenges in Industry sectors of the economy, which are particularly hard to abate.
This course is designed to:
raise awareness about the urgent need to cut greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and transition to low-carbon economy;
explain what decarbonisation and energy transition mean for the industry and the challenges of such transition;
provide overview the most carbon intensive industrial products and processes and discuss some of the new technologies being developed to address the problem.
Industry decarbonisation and challenges of energy transition
Overview of the most carbon-intensive industrial processes and products (including cement, hydrogen, steel and aluminium)
Industry decarbonisation (electrification, energy efficiency, low carbon fuels, carbon capture, innovation in technology and materials)
Examples of new low-carbon manufacturing approaches (HYBRIT and MSE) and energy saving processes (thermal heat recovery and onsite nitrogen production)
