Photoelectrochemical Demonstrator Device for Solar Hydrogen Generation (PECDEMO)

Date du début: 1 avr. 2014, Date de fin: 31 mars 2017,

To address the challenges of solar energy capture and storage in the form of a chemical fuel, we will develop a hybrid photoelectrochemical-photovoltaic (PEC-PV) tandem device for light-driven water splitting. This concept is based on a visible light-absorbing metal oxide photoelectrode, which is immersed in water and placed in front of a smaller-bandgap thin film PV cell. This tandem approach ens ...

Eco-friendly biorefinery fine chemicals from CO2 photo-catalytic reduction (ECO2CO2)

Date du début: 1 déc. 2012, Date de fin: 31 mai 2016,

The Eco2CO2 project aims at exploiting a photo-electro-chemical (PEC) CO2 conversion route for the synthesis of methanol as a key intermediate for the production of fine chemicals (fragrances, flavourings, adhesives, monomers,…) in a lignocellulosic biorefinery. A distinct improvement in the ecological footprint of the envisaged chemical industries will thus be achieved by: i) boosting the potenti ...

Fully artificial photo-electrochemical device for low temperature hydrogen production (ArtipHyction)

Date du début: 1 mai 2012, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2015,

Leaves can split water into O2 and H2 at ambient conditions exploiting sun light. James Barber, one of the key players of ArtipHyction, elucidated Photosystem II (PSII), the enzyme that governs this process. In photosynthesis, H2 is used to reduce CO2 and give rise to the various organic compounds needed by the organisms or even oily compounds which can be used as fuels. However, a specific enzyme ...

Time dynamics and ContROl in naNOStructures for magnetic recording and energy applications (CRONOS)

Date du début: 1 juin 2012, Date de fin: 31 mai 2015,

The CRONOS project seeks to develop a quantitative, flexible and fully atomistic theory of ultrafast dynamics in real materials. Our effort will create the necessary knowledge for advancing two technological areas crucial for the economic future of Europe and the well being of its citizens: new materials for solar energy harvesting and ultra-high density magnetic data storage. In particular we wil ...

Advanced Design and Industrialization of Organic Sensitizers without Ruthenium for Dye Sensitised Solar cells (ADIOS-RU)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2012, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2014,

Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) are a promising new generation of photovoltaic which have relatively high performance compared to silicon-based solar cells in many non-ideal light environments such as dim, diffuse and indoor light. They are on the verge of wide-scale commercialization but still face challenging issues to solve on long-term stability, materials cost and ability to recycle. Many o ...
